Your Career

We're looking for a resourceful Data Scientist to join a growing Product Analytics team at Xpanse, the latest addition to Palo Alto Networks Cortex.

Xpanse protects some of the world's largest organizations from malicious software and hackers. Our global collections architecture yields the best and most detailed view into the device layer of the public Internet. In this role, you will have access to the unique data that we continuously collect and monitor. You will seek new, critical cybersecurity insights that protect customers in data sets ranging in size from gigabytes to petabytes.

Your Impact

• Provide guidance on product direction or iteration via usage analytics data
• Collaborate across teams to understand different stakeholders, measure usage of internal analytics tools, and find new ways to derive value from our data
• Measure success of initiatives, projects, and product features using diverse data sources
• Explore and characterize our internal data for cybersecurity insights relevant to our current or potential customers
• Build prototypes that generate data insights for customers and help to operationalize them
• Develop new techniques, technologies, and ways of understanding the Internet: on this team, all of the Internet is our playground

Your Experience

• Degree in a quantitative and/or technical field - Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics, Economics, Engineering, Operations Research, or a related field or equivalent military experience required
• Proficiency in Python, SQL, and database operations
• Software development or systems experience is a plus but not required
• A background in collaborative research, collaborative code development, or similar previous data work
• Ability (and desire) to tackle ambiguous projects and come up with new solutions
• Curiosity - you ask questions and you want to understanding the reasons why

The Team

Our analytics team is at the core of all data work at Xpanse. Analysts on our team work support all departments through our efforts in AI (eg building internal tools and measuring AI feature usage), Modeling and Forecasting (eg customer account health models), Experimentation, Segmentation and Clustering, and User Behavior Reporting. We need individuals who feel comfortable in ambiguity, excited by the prospect of a challenge, and empowered by the unknown risks facing our everyday lives that are only enabled by a secure digital environment.

Our Commitment

We're trailblazers that dream big, take risks, and challenge cybersecurity's status quo. It's simple: we can't accomplish our mission without diverse teams innovating, together.
