About the Role

We are seeking a Data Scientist to join our AI & Data Science team. You will act as an internal AI consultant and technical lead, assisting various Sonatype teams in applying machine learning and generative AI to solve real-world challenges, including malicious behavior and anomaly detection, and developing GenAI experiences for developers and analysts. You will explore datasets, design experiments, build and validate models, and collaborate with experts to create scalable solutions, focusing on model development and deployment.

Responsibilities

  • Lead applied AI projects from concept to impact, including prototyping, validation, and deployment of ML and GenAI solutions.
  • Serve as an internal consultant to product, engineering, security, and research teams, defining problems, evaluating approaches, and advising on ML/AI best practices and generative technology usage.
  • Lead the research, development, and deployment of models for use cases such as malicious behavior detection, anomaly detection, and fraud analysis, utilizing techniques from classical ML to LLMs, embeddings, RAG, and agentic workflows.
  • Design robust experiments and establish evaluation pipelines for model reliability, accuracy, and business impact, including cross-validation, drift monitoring, and ground-truth evaluation.
  • Translate research insights into scalable APIs, tools, or workflows to facilitate AI adoption by other teams.
  • Explore new techniques like LLMs, embeddings models, RAG, and agentic workflows to improve developer and security experiences.
  • Clearly communicate technical concepts, tradeoffs, and recommendations to diverse stakeholders through presentations, documentation, and collaboration.
  • Mentor peers and enhance the organization's AI literacy and capabilities.
  • Partner with the data governance team to ensure compliance with data-privacy regulations and ethical considerations when handling customer data.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of hands-on experience in applied data science, machine learning, AI engineering, or AI research.
  • Computer Science or equivalent technical degree strongly preferred.
  • Strong Python skills and practical experience with data and AI libraries/platforms such as Databricks, and LLM APIs, scikit-learn.
  • Experience building and shipping ML or GenAI applications from prototype through to production.
  • Deep familiarity with modern LLM ecosystems, including OpenAI, Anthropic/Claude, Hugging Face, and open-weight models.
  • Ability to select models and design effective LLM applications using prompting, context management, structured outputs, retrieval, and tool use.
  • Experience building agentic or multi-step AI workflows with LangGraph, LangChain, Semantic Kernel, or similar orchestration frameworks.
  • Strong evaluation mindset: defining useful quality metrics, building representative evaluation datasets, assessing reliability, and making data-driven tradeoffs.
  • Comfortable working with large, messy, structured, and unstructured data to produce features, insights, and clear visualizations.
  • Proficiency with Git, testing, code review, and collaborative software-development practices.
  • Practical, balanced judgment: comfortable exploring emerging AI capabilities while building maintainable, secure, dependable systems.
  • Proactive and accountable, with strong written and verbal communication skills across technical and non-technical partners.
