Senior ML Engineer (Zürich)

ppYou want to operate at the cutting edge of AI, building the strongest defenses in the AI cybersecurity market. You will be increasing the scope and quality of our defenses, and playing a pivotal role in ensuring that GenAI applications can be deployed securely at scale. You will lead the creation of cutting‑edge models that perform exceptionally well and operate in real time. This involves continuously identifying edge cases for our detectors and working to collect and generate intricate threat datasets to improve the performance of these models. You will ensure that Lakera can continuously ship the best defenses in the market with a high cadence. Your passion lies in shaping the future, working on ideas that define the secure use of AI in the decades ahead. Your work will play a vital role in ensuring that AI can unleash its best potential – for good. /p h3Example projects /h3 ul liExtend the scope of one of our detectors to support multiple languages without dropping performance on already supported languages. /li liIncrease the scope where our defenses perform by 100x (e.g., multi‑lingual data, code, etc). /li liExtend modeling and data generation to enable passing additional context to our prompt injection detectors, such as the LLM output and behavioral metadata. /li liRed team our model to understand the most pressing vulnerabilities of our detectors and prioritize the data collection and generation required to fix them. /li /ul h3What you’ll bring /h3 ul liYou have at least 4 years of experience shipping machine learning models to production, ideally in environments where reliability and quality are key (e.g., autonomous driving, industrial applications, healthcare). /li liMost of your experience productionizing ML models has been in unstructured data spaces such as NLP and vision. /li liYou have had experience working on end‑to‑end development of ML models. /li liYou have experience working on the “long tail” of data distribution, bringing models from prototypes to real‑world systems. /li liYou aspire to play a pivotal role in defining the future of secure AI within a mission‑driven company with ambitious goals. /li /ul /p #J-18808-Ljbffr
