CrowdStrike is looking for a Data Scientist II to join the CTO Labs team. In this role, you will apply your machine learning, coding, and research skills to develop security technology. You will leverage large-scale data to build and improve supervised learning models for identifying malicious software and sophisticated behavioral threats.

What You'll Do

Mine large scale and high dimensional data, identify patterns, and visualize trends.
Create predictive models using supervised learning techniques to detect and stop sophisticated threats.
Innovate new semi-supervised and online learning techniques to enhance threat detection and reduce false positives.
Work closely with domain experts to improve raw data and derive more value from data collected.
Implement and experiment with new algorithms and methodologies to improve machine learning models.
Automate and visualize analyses, results and processes in the machine learning pipeline.

What We're Looking For

Master’s degree in Mathematics, Computer Science, Physics, Data Science, or a related STEM Field.
Extensive post/undergraduate experience in data science, machine learning, or any field employing computational science or data driven analyses.
Programming experience in Python.
2+ years of experience working on real-world machine learning models and pipelines.

Nice to Have

Passionate about cybersecurity, with a firm understanding of the problem space, or passionate about applying a machine learning skillset to new domains.
Versed in utilizing Machine Learning techniques and familiar with standard algorithms, their trade-offs, usage, and tuning.
Experience working on very large data sets of sparse high dimensional data and experience in pre-processing and analyzing such data.
An independent self-starter who likes to take ownership and independently seeks out new challenges.
Thirsty for knowledge and willing to step outside of your comfort zone to learn new technologies, algorithms, and concepts.
Comfortable diving into a Python codebase, including experience with unit testing and the Python packaging ecosystem.
Comfortable and experienced working in a Linux environment in the AWS cloud.
Analytically minded: never afraid to drill down into a data-set or debug deeper into an unfamiliar codebase.
