  • Strong proficiency in Python, Go, and machine learning libraries such as TensorFlow or PyTorch.
  • Experience with data processing frameworks like Kafka, Spark, and real-time data streaming technologies.
  • Deep understanding of model training, feature engineering, and performance optimization.
  • Experience working with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, etc.) and containerization (Docker, Kubernetes).
  • Expertise in large-scale data analysis, with experience in anomaly detection and predictive modeling.
  • Ability to transform complex datasets into understandable, actionable insights for end-users.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience working with security datasets or in the cybersecurity domain.
  • Familiarity with GCP VertexAI and Google BigQuery.
  • Proven ability to integrate machine learning models in SaaS products and customer-facing platforms.
