Data Science at Tessian
Our mission is to secure the human layer. This involves deploying near real-time machine learning models at massive scale to some of the world’s largest organisations to keep their most sensitive data private and secure. To do this, we're looking for a senior data scientist with NLP experience ready to work on hard problems, drive best practice and cultivate an environment of experimentation and learning. Companies can leverage data science in a number of ways, and we think the role of a Data Scientist falls into three distinct categories:
1) You work for a business function analysing & reporting on how to improve a key metric, e.g increasing user conversion
2) You are responsible for writing production models to enhance the main product, e.g recommendation systems for e-commerce
3) You are the product - without machine learning, it wouldn't exist
The Data Science team built the product at Tessian. We couldn't exist without our machine learning models; it’s at the heart of what we do, and it’s what our clients rely on day-to-day. We're searching for a Lead NLP Data Scientist who is excited about the opportunities and challenges that come with researching, building and deploying real-time production models. In this role you'll get to:
Work across massive enterprise email datasets
Deploy models to production that impacts directly our customers and products
Improve our ML workflow
Collaborate with engineering and product leaders to develop a product suite that is continually detecting more advanced threats for our customers
Make your mark on leading ambitious projects
Mentor and knowledge share with data scientists at Tessian
We'd love to meet someone who:
4+ years Data Science experience
Has strong NLP experience (in production)
Has worked with, or understands the principles behind working with data at scale
Can balance longer term projects alongside impactful quick wins
Cares deeply about the impact their team hasIs a creative at heart, and can encourage novel ways of thinking in their team. This has always been a core part of the data science team’s DNA
