Data Scientist - AI Evaluation Team

Why Join Us?

Join our AI Foundations group as a Data Scientist in the AI Evaluations team and help build the next generation of AI-powered networking and security solutions at Check Point.

The AI Foundations Group is responsible for developing AI applications, intelligent agents, and backend systems that integrate directly into Check Point products and workflows. As part of Check Point’s strategic AI direction, the group focuses on turning modern GenAI capabilities into scalable production systems that help customers operate, troubleshoot, investigate, and manage complex networking and cybersecurity environments more effectively.

This role combines strong data science work, modern GenAI technologies, and deep product impact. You’ll work on building production-grade AI systems, integrating LLMs and agentic workflows into large-scale products, and helping shape how AI transforms cybersecurity and networking operations across the company.

We are looking for Senior Data Scientists who are excited about building real-world AI systems in production, not just experimenting with models, but using cutting edge tools and solutions for advanced evaluation of conversation threads, individual exchanges, agents, skills and tools in order to optimize the full product flow and directly impact customer experience.
