Ready to join a mission that matters? The future of cybersecurity starts with you.

About the Role:

CrowdStrike’s Data Science team is expanding, and we are looking for a Staff Scientist to help shape the future of cybersecurity through cutting-edge machine learning and AI research. Operating at the intersection of advanced research and impactful engineering, this role is ideal for an experienced scientist ready to guide strategic investigations, influence product direction, and contribute to the broader scientific community.

As a Staff Scientist, you will be embedded within our world-class Data Science organization, collaborating with technical experts, junior researchers, and executive leadership alike. You will explore novel applications of AI/ML across CrowdStrike’s unique and massive data assets — including over 500 billion behavioral events daily — to deliver powerful threat detection capabilities and security solutions.

This is a high-impact role focused on innovation, mentorship, and external visibility. You’ll operate autonomously in underdefined research areas while ensuring alignment with CrowdStrike’s broader strategic priorities.

What You’ll Do:

  • Stay up to date with academic and industry research in Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence, identify areas of opportunity for CrowdStrike, and advise executive staff.

  • Conduct independent research and experiments in strategic areas; keep stakeholders informed of relevant outcomes; solicit input on directions and applicability.

  • Collaborate with data scientists and researchers in the Data Science department to ensure quality research output and alignment with departmental research objectives; guide junior researchers.

  • Collaborate with the Data Science Strategy team to create a research agenda.

  • Represent the department’s research through academic papers, industry conference presentations, and blog posts.

  • Identify applications of representation learning and self-supervised learning to large databases of unlabeled security data; identify uses of foundation models to cybersecurity classification problems; identify novel application of Generative AI systems to cybersecurity challenges.

What You’ll Need:

  • At least 8 years experience in industry or academic research.

  • Expert in Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence and its mathematical underpinnings.

  • Ability to independently operate in novel and underdefined problem areas.

  • Collaborate in a remote work environment and communicate complex problems effectively.

  • Proven ability to thrive in ambiguous or underdefined problem domains with minimal oversight.

  • Demonstrated track record of original research and innovation in ML/AI, preferably in security-related domains.

  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to collaborate across functions and influence mixed audiences.

  • Experience working in remote-first environments, with a self-driven approach to productivity and engagement.
