• Lead technology direction for a highly performant and cross platform model delivery framework.
• Design interfaces which our models will use to interact with our falcon sensor, which runs on millions of Windows, Linux, and macOS endpoints worldwide.
• Define resource utilization limits and optimize solutions to provide AI powered security on the endpoint while maintaining our agent's lightweight footprint.
• Define approaches for testing (efficacy, regression, performance). Define approaches to produce repeatability with testing, while operating with runtime (vs static) data.

• Leadership experience developing and delivering ML and AI models.
• Understanding of common AI platform technologies, such as ONNX, Open Vino, or others.
• Experience working with runtime data and in a high performance environment.
• Familiarity with AI hardware acceleration using the NPU or GPU.
• Strong endpoint development experience on at least one of our major platforms - Windows, Linux, or macOS.
• Strong C/C++ development experience.
• Experience with systems level programming.
• Ability to work with teams crossing organizational boundaries.
• Track record of owning solutions from design phase through post-delivery.
