Senior Software Engineer Detection

You will build and own detection capabilities that identify malicious activity across blockchain networks, from research and design through production deployment and impact measurement. You will design real-time detections, test detection logic, analyze datasets, investigate incidents, maintain production services, tune performance, and operationalize attack patterns.

Responsibilities

• Design and implement real-time detections for blockchain attacks and malicious activity
• Develop and backtest and forward-test heuristics and detection logic
• Analyze large datasets to discover new detection opportunities
• Investigate incidents and translate learnings into scalable detections
• Build and maintain production detection modules and services
• Measure, tune, and improve detection performance
• Partner with security researchers to operationalize new attack patterns

Requirements

• 5 years of developer experience in a large-scale production setting
• Experience building detections in cybersecurity, fraud, risk analytics, or related domains
• Strong Python and SQL skills or comparable experience
• Experience designing heuristics, rules, scoring systems, or detection, anomaly, or classification logic
• Strong analytical and data-driven problem-solving skills
• Experience or familiarity with traditional cybersecurity concepts
• Track record of independently driving projects from idea to production
• Familiarity with or curiosity about blockchain, cryptocurrency, and digital assets
• Experience applying machine learning to detection or risk problems
