About the role

  • Design and implement systems that combine rules, models, feature engineering, and business and product inputs into an email detection product, with senior engineer guidance.
  • Understand features that distinguish safe emails from email attacks, and how our model stack enables us to catch them.
  • Identify and recommend new features groups or ML model approaches that can significantly improve detection efficacy for a product. Work with infrastructure & systems engineers to productionize signals to feed into the detection system.
  • Writes code with testability, readability, edge cases, and errors in mind.
  • Train models on well-defined datasets to improve model efficacy on specialized attacks
  • Actively monitor and improve FN rates and efficacy rates for our message detection product attack categories, through feature engineering, rules and ML modeling.
  • Analyze FN and FP datasets to categorize capability gaps and recommend short term feature and rule ideas to improve our detection efficacy.
  • Contribute in other areas of the stack: building and debugging data pipelines, or presenting results back to customers in our tools when the occasion arises

Requirements

  • 3+ years experience designing, building and deploying machine learning applications in one of the domains of text understanding, entity recognition, NLP experience, computer vision, recommendation systems, or search.
  • 1+ years of experience with writing stable and production level pipelines for model training and evaluation leading to reproducible models and metrics.
  • Experience with data analytics and wielding SQL+pandas+spark framework to both build data and metric generation pipelines, and answer critical questions about system efficacy or counterfactual treatments.
  • Ability to understand business requirements thoroughly and bias toward designing a simplest yet generalizable ML model / system that can accomplish the goal.
  • Uses a systematic approach to debug both data and system issues within ML / heuristics models.
  • Fluent with Python and machine learning toolkits like numpy, sklearn, pytorch and tensorflow.
  • Effective software engineering skills who can find answers quickly from code base and writes structured, readable, well tested and efficient code.
  • BS degree in Computer Science, Applied Sciences, Information Systems or other related engineering field.
Benefits
  • At Abnormal AI, certain roles are eligible for a bonus, restricted stock units (RSUs), and benefits. Individual compensation packages are based on factors unique to each candidate, including their skills, experience, qualifications and other job-related reasons.
