Are you passionate about using cutting-edge technology to help protect the world against cyber threats? Do you live and breathe the cyber security world? Do you want to take part in an innovative and disruptive AI security group that has an impact on many customers?
You will be part of a strong security research and data science team who solve highly complex security challenges using disruptive technologies, AI & ML algorithms and a lot of data.
As part of that, you will take part in the design and development of new groundbreaking AI security solutions which make a direct impact on many customers.
At Palo Alto Networks we value diverse viewpoints and experiences, as we are solving complex cyber security challenges. We are committed to a safe and inclusive workspace.
Key Responsibilities
Be at the forefront of security innovation, building next-gen detection capabilities powered by AI, deep-learning, machine learning, big data, and deep threat intelligence.
Dive deep into low-level systems, reverse engineering, and file-type behavior to uncover novel attack vectors – and then turn that insight into scalable, ML-driven protections.
Work hand-in-hand with rockstar data scientists, engineers, and PMs in a fast-paced, collaborative environment where ideas move quickly from whiteboard to production.
Lead high-impact research initiatives that fuse classic security expertise with modern data science – shaping models, influencing pipelines, and driving real-world protection outcomes.
Be a key player in a multidisciplinary team where your deep security expertise will directly influence AI/ML model design, data pipeline strategy, and real-world product impact.
