Data Scientist
At 3GO we’re taking a different approach to protecting US consumers so they can shop, learn, bank and invest online safely. We start with robust coaching – because there can’t be any protection unless each person knows and implements the basics of strong cybersecurity. We work with members to assess their needs and put essential protections in place first. Then we sustain and build on that protection with additional actions, ongoing monitoring and other features.
Most credit and dark web monitoring fails by overwhelming consumers with warnings – too many of which are dated, duplicative, or not helpful. We’re committed to knowing our members at a level that will allow our alerts to be relevant and actionable. We’ve worked with cybersecurity experts on a data strategy to ingest and normalize vast amounts of data in a way that supports our immediate needs and that will support the upcoming use of machine learning to discover additional patterns and correlations.
Job Description
Here’s where you come in – we’re looking for a data scientist to manage our efforts to identify, acquire and analyze cybersecurity threat data as it pertains to US consumers.

You’ll work closely with our platform and application development team, cybersecurity specialists group, and learning & development department in a fast-moving, fast growth, fully remote environment.
