Arlington, VA, USAAs an Applied Data Scientist on TD, you will develop data pipelines and perform feature engineering to train and deploy sophisticated machine learning models and statistical methods to identify threats across petabyte-scale security data. You will research emerging attack patterns to build predictive models that proactively detect threats before they impact our customers. Working closely with Incident Response, Threat Hunting, Threat Intelligence, and Red team, you will translate threat intelligence into actionable detection algorithms and behavioral models. You'll innovate with the latest techniques in anomaly detection, machine learning, and AI to rapidly identify threats at scale while minimizing false positives. Your data science expertise will be instrumental in defending Amazon's customers against sophisticated and critical threats.Key job responsibilities
* Design and implement machine learning models for near-time threat detection across massive scale security datasets
* Develop behavioral analytics and anomaly detection algorithms to identify previously unknown threats and attack patterns
* Build statistical models that correlate multi-source security telemetry to enhance detection accuracy and reduce false positives
* Research and prototype advanced analytics solutions using Machine Learning, deep learning, time-series analysis, and Generative AI for threat detection
* Create data pipelines and feature engineering frameworks to process and analyze security data at petabyte-scale
* Collaborate with security teams to translate attack patterns into detection models
* Measure and optimize detection performance using statistical methods, A/B testing, and feedback loops
* Provide analytical support during security incidents through rapid data analysis and threat modeling
* Develop automated solutions using Python, SQL, and cloud technologies to scale detection capabilities
* Present findings and model insights to drive security strategy decisionsAbout the team
