About the Role:
As an AI-Powered Threat Detection Engineer, you’ll develop intelligent security systems that learn from threat patterns, predict malicious behavior, and automate incident response. You’ll work on the cutting edge of AI-driven cyber defense, designing tools that detect insider threats, advanced persistent threats (APT), and zero-day exploits.
This is a hands-on engineering role for someone who loves solving complex problems using AI, machine learning, and cybersecurity expertise.
Key Responsibilities:
- Build and deploy AI/ML models for behavioral analytics and threat scoring.
- Use real-time streaming data to identify and respond to emerging cyber threats.
- Integrate your models into SIEM and SOAR platforms for automated defense.
- Conduct red team vs. blue team simulations using generated attack data.
- Lead data engineering efforts for collecting, cleaning, and labeling threat logs.
- Work closely with cybersecurity analysts and DevSecOps teams.
- Research and implement deep learning approaches for malware classification.
Required Skills:
- Solid foundation in cybersecurity principles and incident detection
- Strong coding skills in Python (Pandas, Scikit-learn, TensorFlow or PyTorch)
- Proficiency in data pipelines and APIs (Kafka, REST, Splunk, Elasticsearch)
- Experience with SIEM tools (e.g., QRadar, Splunk, Microsoft Sentinel)
- Understanding of log analysis, network traffic, and SOC processes
- Familiarity with threat frameworks (e.g., MITRE ATT&CK, Cyber Kill Chain)
Desirable Skills:
- Experience with anomaly detection algorithms or unsupervised learning
- Exposure to graph-based analysis for threat hunting (e.g., Neo4j, NetworkX)
- Hands-on with Docker, Kubernetes, and cloud-based ML pipelines
- Cybersecurity certifications: CISSP, CISM, CEH, or Google Cybersecurity Cert
Why This Role Is Unique:
- You’ll design real-world AI systems that detect attacks before they happen
- Work with live, high-volume data from financial institutions and telecom networks
- Exposure to AI forensics, digital twin simulations, and advanced SOCs
- Training budget and mentorship to specialize in AI Cyber Defense
