Distinguished AI/ML Architect (Cortex)

Are you a master of the AI lifecycle who can thrive at the intersection of deep learning research, cybersecurity and large-scale production systems? Do you possess the rare ability to jump into a complex technical crisis, diagnose a bottleneck in a Small Language Model (SLM), and lead a team to a production-ready solution?
As a Distinguished AI/ML Architect, you will be the premier technical authority across the Cortex AI/ML organization. You will serve as the "force multiplier" for multiple AI & ML teams, ensuring that our AI strategy - from endpoint-deployed DL/ML models to cloud-scale agentic products - is executed with world-class precision. You will operate as the primary technical architect and hands-on leader for our most ambitious and difficult initiatives.
Key Responsibilities
Operate at the forefront of AI and cybersecurity, leveraging vast datasets to design and deploy innovative defense mechanisms.
