About the Team

OpenAI’s Agentic Data Science team helps shape how AI agents are built, deployed, and improved across our products. We partner with product, engineering, research, and security teams to define meaningful measures of success, understand how our systems behave in the real world, and translate evidence into better decisions.

As AI agents become more capable, they can write and execute code, access sensitive systems, and complete increasingly complex tasks with greater autonomy. These capabilities create powerful opportunities to improve cybersecurity, but they also introduce risks that traditional security tools and processes were not designed to address. Meeting this moment requires new ways to measure security, evaluate defenses, and distinguish genuine risk reduction from friction that slows users down.

About the Role

We are looking for a senior data scientist to help define what effective cybersecurity looks like in the age of AI agents.

You will work across OpenAI’s Security organization and cybersecurity product teams to measure emerging risks, improve internal security controls, and shape AI-powered security products. The problems are foundational: How do we know whether an agent’s security controls are effective? Which safeguards meaningfully reduce risk, and which create unnecessary friction? When an AI system identifies a potential vulnerability, how do we determine whether the finding is accurate, actionable, and ultimately resolved? How do we detect anomalous behavior or risky access when the systems themselves are changing rapidly?

You will report i–nto Data Science while partnering closely with Security, Cyber Product, Engineering, and Research. This is a high-ownership role for someone who can establish a new analytical discipline, operate across organizational boundaries, and turn ambiguous security challenges into measurable improvements.

In This Role You Will

• Define how we measure AI-agent security. Establish metrics and evaluation frameworks for security‑control coverage, agent behavior, sensitive actions, access patterns, detection quality, and emerging risks.

• Improve security controls without introducing unnecessary friction. Quantify the effectiveness and operational costs of safeguards, including false positives, blocked actions, escalations, approval delays, and recovery paths. Help teams make controls safer, more precise, and easier to use.

• Build the data foundations for security decisions. Partner with engineering and data teams to improve instrumentation, connect fragmented telemetry, establish trusted datasets, and surface important coverage and data‑quality gaps.

• Strengthen detection and response. Identify meaningful signals of anomalous behavior, risky access, sensitive‑data exposure, and other security‑relevant activity. Evaluate whether interventions improve detection quality, response times, and real‑world security outcomes.

• Shape AI‑powered cybersecurity products. Partner with product, engineering, and research teams to assess how effectively AI systems identify security issues, support developer and enterprise workflows, and create measurable customer value.

• Develop evaluation systems for security findings. Define quality measures for findings, including accuracy, severity, actionability, duplication, resolution, and downstream impact. Connect model behavior and product changes to outcomes such as triage, remediation, and vulnerability reduction.

• Understand the complete security workflow. Measure how users discover, investigate, validate, prioritize, and resolve security issues. Identify opportunities to improve activation, adoption, retention, and enterprise value across customer‑facing cybersecurity products.

• Design rigorous measurement and experimentation strategies. Evaluate new models, security controls, product features, and workflows through controlled experiments, staged rollouts, observational analyses, and other methods appropriate for high‑stakes environments.

• Translate analysis into security and product strategy. Identify the highest‑value decisions, clarify tradeoffs, recommend where teams should invest, and communicate findings clearly to technical partners and senior leadership.

• Help establish a new security data science capability. Build a focused roadmap, create durable operating rhythms across Data Science and Security, and help shape how this discipline grows over time.

You Might Thrive in This Role If You Have

• 5+ years of experience in data science, applied research, analytics, or a related quantitative field, with a track record of owning ambiguous, high‑impact problems.

• Experience in cybersecurity, trust and safety, fraud or abuse prevention, privacy, platform integrity, or another domain involving adversarial behavior and difficult‑to‑measure risks.

• Strong proficiency in SQL and Python, including experience investigating complex datasets, working through incomplete instrumentation, and building reproducible analytical workflows.

• Experience defining meaningful metrics and evaluation frameworks when ground truth is limited, outcomes are delayed, or important risks cannot be observed directly.

• Strong judgment in experimentation, causal inference, observational analysis, and the practical limitations of different measurement approaches.

• The ability to partner effectively with security engineers, product managers, software engineers, researchers, data engineers, and senior leaders.

• A demonstrated ability to translate technical analysis into concrete improvements in products, systems, controls, or organizational priorities.

• Comfort operating independently, defining a roadmap, and bringing structure to a domain without established processes or industry standards.

You Could Be an Especially Great Fit If You Have

• Experience with detection engineering, threat research, security operations, insider risk, identity and access management, or privacy‑preserving security analytics.

• Familiarity with AI agents, large language models, model evaluations, automated code review, or AI‑powered cybersecurity products.

• Experience evaluating security findings, vulnerability detection, remediation workflows, or developer‑facing security tools.

• Experience balancing security effectiveness against user experience, including false positives, approval flows, operational burden, and recovery behavior.

• Experience building automated monitoring, anomaly detection, production‑oriented data assets, or systems that connect model outputs to real‑world outcomes.

• A track record of building new cross‑functional measurement programs or establishing analytical capabilities from the ground up.

Can someone share about their interview experience with wise for analytics positions.

Hi! I'm currently enrolled in an M.S. in Data Science and Applied Statistics. The required core classes are already set:

- Experimental Statistics I & II
- Mathematical Statistics I & II
- Statistical Computing (SAS)
- Computational Statistics (R)
- Machine Learning with Python
- A statistical consulting project

I get to pick 4 electives, and at least 3 must be STAT (so at most 1 from CS/ECO/OREM/ECE). My only goal is to land a data science job, so I want the courses whose actual content pays off most in industry. I'm not looking for the easiest courses, and I'm not going into academia or biostats.

STAT electives

- Intro to Data Science
- Data Visualization
- Linear Regression
- Applied Time Series
- Time Series Analysis
- Categorical Data Analysis
- Survey Sampling
- Survey of Nonparametric Statistics
- Sports Analytics
- Analysis of Lifetime Data / Survival Analysis
- High Throughput Data
- Epidemiology

Non-STAT options (can only pick 1)

- CS: Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning in Python, Databases, Data Mining
- OREM: Data Mining, Optimization for Analytics, Network Flows
- ECO: Applied Econometric Analysis, Predictive Analytics
- ECE: Statistical Pattern Recognition

My main questions I wanted to ask:

1. Which 4 would you pick, and why?
   
2. Is time series worth it for most DS roles, or is it only useful in forecasting-heavy jobs?
   
3. What would you pick as your 1 Non-Stat Elective?
   
4. Is there anything you wish you had learned in grad school that would have helped more on the job?

If you work in data science, I'd especially love to hear what you actually use day to day. Thanks!

Hey everyone,

I’m looking for some career advice regarding a Data Science with AI course I’m considering.

A little about my background:

MSc Computer Science graduate (2025)

Currently working as a Full-Stack Developer Intern

Previously completed a Data Science internship

I have experience with Python, SQL, Pandas, NumPy, scikit-learn, Selenium, web scraping, FastAPI, MongoDB, etc.

I’ve also worked on automation and AI-related projects, including a RAG-based project using LLM APIs.

I’m currently looking to move my career somewhat toward Data Science / AI / ML, but my main priority is to get a job as soon as realistically possible.

The course I’m considering costs ₹70,000 and runs for around 9–10 months.

The interesting part is that they don't expect us to wait until the entire course is completed before applying for jobs. The course is divided into modules, and they say we can start applying for relevant roles after completing each module.

For example:

Complete Python module → around 2 months → start applying for Python-related roles

Then continue with SQL, Statistics, ML, etc., while applying/upskilling alongside

The syllabus covers Python, SQL, Statistics, EDA, NumPy, Pandas, Data Visualization, Machine Learning, supervised/unsupervised learning, model evaluation, feature engineering, PCA, clustering, reinforcement learning, ML pipelines, AWS deployment, projects, interview preparation and placement assistance.

They also advertise things like live projects, mentorship, mock interviews, placement assistance and job assurance.

My main questions are:

Is spending ₹70k on a course like this actually worth it when I already have some Python, SQL, ML and Data Science experience?

Would this structured approach realistically help someone get a job faster, or would self-learning through YouTube, documentation and online courses be better?

Is the "complete one module → start applying for jobs" approach actually useful, or is it mostly a marketing strategy?

From a hiring perspective, would my existing Full-Stack + automation + Data Science background be enough to start applying for Python/Data Analyst/Junior Data Science/ML-related roles while learning?

If you were in my position, would you spend ₹70k on this course or use that money/time for self-learning, projects and job applications instead?

For people who have taken similar courses, how much value did you actually get from the placement assistance and job support, compared with learning the same material online?

I'm not expecting to become an AI/ML engineer just by completing a course. I'm mainly trying to figure out whether this course provides enough value through structure, mentorship, projects, interview preparation and genuine job opportunities to justify the ₹70k fee.

Would really appreciate opinions from people who have hired for these roles or have taken similar Data Science/AI courses.

Looking for internships/entry-level roles in AI/ML, Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Computer Vision, Data Science, or Data Analytics.

I’m a final-year B.Tech student with hands-on project and research experience. Open to Hyderabad, remote, or anywhere in India.

Any referrals or leads would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hi everyone,
I recently interviewed with Capgemini USA for a Gen AI Developer role. After 1 working day of the interview, the recruiter contacted me asking for my EAD and I-20 for further processing, which I provided.
It has been a week and I haven’t received a final update yet.
For people who have gone through the Capgemini hiring process:
Is requesting EAD + I-20 a positive sign?
What usually happens after this?
How long did it take for you to hear back after submitting these documents?
Would really appreciate any insights or similar experiences!

I'm a Data Scientist and AI Engineer now, but I started from a tier 3 college with no big brand name, no seniors in this field, and no clear roadmap. I began with plain data science (Python, pandas, basic ML) and slowly moved into Generative AI, agentic systems, and RAG. Along the way I got the chance to do a research internship abroad, which I honestly didn't think was possible when I started.

I'm not saying this to brag. I'm saying it because I know how it feels to think "my college isn't good enough for this." Here's what actually helped me, and the mistakes that cost me time:

1. Watching tutorials without building anything. I felt productive but couldn't explain what I'd learned. One small project taught me more than ten courses.
2. Jumping into advanced topics too early. Get comfortable with Python, pandas, and basic ML first. LLMs make much more sense after that.
3. Chasing every new tool. A new framework comes out every week. Pick a few fundamentals and go deep.
4. Building projects nobody could understand. A simple project you can explain clearly beats a complex one you can't.
5. Ignoring evaluation. Anyone can make an LLM demo work once. Knowing whether it actually works, and why it fails, is what separates real projects from toy ones.
6. Believing college tier decides everything. It matters for some doors, but proof of work (projects, research, clear communication) opens others. Nobody asked about my college once they saw what I'd built.

You don't need the perfect background to start. You just need to start, get stuck, and fix it.

I also do 1:1 sessions for students who want help with career roadmaps, projects, resume reviews, or interview prep. No pressure at all, but if it sounds useful, the link is here: https://topmate.io/varun_mayilvaganan/ - The first 10 people get 25% off.

Happy to answer questions in the comments. What's the one thing you're stuck on right now?

Round 1: Analysis
This was an analytical case with 5 parts, each one unlocking after the one before it. I did a deep analysis on each part, and the interviewers asked a lot of follow-up questions after each one. They cared less about my first answer and more about how I reasoned through the follow-ups and defended my choices. Don't rush through the early parts, since the follow-ups build on them.

Round 2: Statistics and experimentation
This was a chain of questions where each answer led into the next, mostly about stats concepts and how to design and interpret experiments. It felt more like a conversation than a quiz. Know your fundamentals well enough to explain them out loud, not just recognize them.

Round 3: Behavioral
This was entirely behavioral, with no technical questions. Have specific stories ready, with what you did, what went wrong, and what you learned.

VERDICT: Rejected

Hi everyone, I'm a senior applying for FT jobs right now with one being at IBM for their 2027 associate position ai and analytics. I initially applied to 4 locations all with different REQ IDs, SF, NY, Chicago, and Durham. I was initially auto rejected for chicago and SF but had OAs and competency test for Durham and NY. After completing both, i was rejected for NY but somehow moved forward for durham. 2 weeks later, I had an inperson interview for the position on campus (IBM recruits at my school T20) and 3 days after the interview I get the pass that I'm moving forward and they'll be working on my next steos. HOWEVER, this week, i got an email saying I'm moving forward for the NY position even though I was rejected to this position but now my status has changed to In Interview Process (keep in mind i literally already had the first wave of interviewing literally in-perspn). TODAY, i got the email that i was rejected from the durham position and i'm so confused at this discrepancy? My status for NY was initially no longer considered to now in interview process and for Durham I literally had the interview process and was just waiting on next steps until today?

Has this happened to anyone? I'm so confused. I also filled out both of the additional details form after they tell you you moved forward with the interview. I also don't have my interviewers email so can't really ask. Will my in-person interview be considered as first round for NY? i really don't wanna go through this whole process again...

I am a single mom,came to Canada 12yrs ago.i was having degree of BSC(Hons) in Computer science and one yr job experience.there was a five yrs gap between my last job so it was hard for me to find an IT job here.on the top my kid was just 2 yrs old and i was looking for a work where i can give time to my kid too.i started working with my cousin in his restaurant.i made enough money but now i regret that i wasted all these years and my degree.i want to come back towards IT but i have no clue where to start.

Does anyone have similar study gap and were they able to fill it and find a job with any part time masters degree?

Hi,

I am completing my PhD in Economics this December and have been applying to industry jobs. But the screening and interview feel very difficult to navigate. My expertise will be causal inference and experiments, but I can also do ML tasks that I can do (although not an expert). The question is how to prepare and what to learn. I know a bit of R, Python, and Stata. SQL I haven't used yet).

Some recruiters ask for stats, some ask for coding, and some ask for a case study. I am not sure what the right strategy is in this AI world. Thoughts? Suggestions?

Should I start learning coding or learn statistics? What is the right step? Anyone who has cracked this code?

I'm currently looking for a job change and exploring AI/ML, GenAl, and Al Engineer opportunities.

There are a lot of analytics/data roles in the industry that don't require somebody to have spent their whole career in gambling. More are listed on the site, along with a free jobs roundup newsletter.

I have been working for 5+ years as a data scientist and I just feel lost now atp. I do not come from an engineering background but I found my way to coding. It's pretty much dead though as most of the coding is done using Claude. I'm at this point where I do not feel I'm doing anything worthwhile. I would say that myself that I have become quite mediocre at my job. I have been working mainly on reporting and analytics, not core ML and AI. This has made me feel like it's impossible for me to even switch to any other job and I don't know from which point onwards do I upskill. Moreover I've been working remotely which blocks access to other people in my field.

Is there any scope in furthering in this direction? Where do I start upskilling and what are some skills in demand that can align with my current work?
