The Cisco Security AI team delivers AI products and platform for all Cisco secure products and portfolios so businesses around the world defend against threats and safeguard the most vital aspects of your business with security resilience. We are passionate about making businesses secure and simplify security with zero compromise using AI and Machine Learning. We are seeking a strong Machine Learning engineer who can make a big difference in the cybersecurity industry.

You are an accomplished and transformative Senior Machine Learning Engineer with a track record of leading teams and architecting machine learning solutions that have made a significant impact. You are deeply passionate about machine learning, and you thrive in a leadership role where you can mentor and inspire others. Your ideal attributes include:

• Architectural Vision: You possess a deep understanding of machine learning system architecture, and you can design complex, scalable, and reliable solutions that meet both security and performance requirements.
• Problem-Specific Model Customization: Proven ability to use and adapt neural network architectures like GANs (Generative Adversarial Networks), Autoencoders, Attention Mechanisms, and Transformers or developing novel architectures to address unique challenges in different domains (e.g., NLP, computer vision, time series analysis).
• Handling High-Dimensional Data: Experience in managing and extracting useful patterns from high-dimensional data spaces, using techniques like dimensionality reduction or specialized network architectures.
• Proficiency in NLP and LLM is desirable, including hands-on experience with BERT, GPT, or similar, to effectively derive insights from structured and/or unstructured text data. Building custom real-world production NLP models for tasks like text generation or text summarization is a strong plus.
• Innovative Solution Development: Ability to apply deep learning techniques innovatively to solve complex, non-traditional problems, often combining domain knowledge (from cybersecurity or other domains) and out-of-the-box thinking.
• Model Scalability and Efficiency: Expertise in developing scalable and efficient models that can be deployed in different environments, including understanding trade-offs between model complexity and performance.
• Continuous Learning and Adaptation: Commitment to staying abreast of the latest research and trends in deep learning, continually integrating new findings and techniques into problem-solving approaches.

• Architecture Design: Design and architect complex machine learning systems that meet security, scalability, and performance requirements, ensuring alignment with the overall security strategy.
• Model Development: Develop and implement advanced machine learning models and algorithms to tackle complicated security problems, including threat detection, anomaly detection, and risk assessment.
• Model Training and Evaluation: Lead the training, validation, and fine-tuning of machine learning models, using pioneering techniques and libraries. Define and track security-specific metrics for model performance.
• Solution Development: Design and implement robust software systems to integrate, deploy, and maintain advanced machine learning models in production environments. This includes developing and optimizing software frameworks, ensuring seamless model integration, and rigorously testing systems to maintain high reliability and performance standards.
• Deployment Strategy: Collaborate with software engineering teams to design and implement deployment strategies for machine learning models into security systems, ensuring scalability, reliability, and efficiency.
• Documentation and Best Practices: Establish standard methodologies for machine learning and security operations, and maintain clear documentation of models, data pipelines, and security procedures.

• BA / BS degree with 7+ years of experience (or) MS degree with 5+ years of experience as a machine learning engineer
• Solid experience in machine learning engineering, with a strong portfolio of successful projects.
• Extensive experience in building machine learning systems and scalable solutions.
• Expertise in machine learning algorithms, deep learning, and statistical modeling

• Advanced degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Statistics, Computational Linguistics or a related field.
• Proficiency in programming languages such as Python or R, and experience with machine learning libraries (e.g., TensorFlow, PyTorch, scikit-learn).
• Excellent problem-solving and communication skills, with the ability to explain complex concepts to non-technical stakeholders.
• Proven ability to work in team oriented environment
