At
COGNNA
, we are on a mission to transform cybersecurity with intelligent, AI-driven solutions. We're looking for a
Senior AI Engineer
who thrives in fast-paced startup environments and is excited to build cutting-edge systems from the ground up. This role is ideal for someone who is as comfortable architecting large-scale ML pipelines as they are coding data transformations, who enjoys solving hard problems hands-on, and who wants to make a meaningful impact on the future of cybersecurity.
Key Responsibilities
- AI/ML Engineering
- Design, develop, and deploy machine learning models for threat detection, behavioral analytics, and automation.
- Implement rigorous testing, monitoring, and continuous improvement pipelines to ensure reliable model performance in production.
- Stay on top of the latest advancements in AI/ML, evaluating and adopting relevant technologies to keep our platform ahead of the curve.
- Data Engineering
- Build and optimize data pipelines that handle large volumes of diverse security telemetry.
- Ensure data quality, scalability, and availability for ML workflows across the COGNNA ecosystem.
- Partner with platform engineers to integrate AI and data services seamlessly into production systems.
- Leadership & Collaboration
- Lead projects end-to-end, from conception to production deployment.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams (security engineers, product managers, platform engineers) to deliver AI-powered solutions that meet real customer needs.
- Communicate technical concepts and trade-offs clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
What We're Looking For
- Strong expertise in machine learning engineering (model development, deployment, monitoring).
- Solid foundation in data engineering (ETL/ELT pipelines, distributed systems, data storage/streaming).
- Hands-on experience with cloud platforms, MLOps tools, and modern data stacks.
- A "startup mindset": you're resourceful, comfortable wearing multiple hats, and willing to get into the details.
- Passion for tackling complex cybersecurity challenges with AI.
Why Join Us?
At COGNNA, you'll be part of a small, innovative team where your work directly shapes the product and the company's future. You'll have the freedom (and responsibility) to design, build, and ship impactful AI solutions that help security teams defend against evolving threats.If you want to push the boundaries of AI in cybersecurity, thrive in a collaborative and fast-moving environment, and enjoy the grind of building something that matters, then we'd love to hear from you!
