About Teleskope Teleskope is building the future of data security. Despite enormous growth in awareness and investment in data security, most companies still don’t know where they are storing sensitive information and how to secure it. At Teleskope, we’re building a modern and developer-friendly data security platform to automate data security and privacy at scale, from detection to remediation.
About The Role Teleskope is looking for an Applied NLP Scientist to play a critical role in the evolution of our remediation engine, which powers our data security and privacy platform. In this role, you will lead the development of agentic NLP systems that don’t just detect risks in unstructured data but take proactive remediation and compliance actions directly within the Teleskope platform. You will design and build intelligent agents that operate across diverse enterprise data modalities (e.g., unstructured text, documents, tables, images), unifying extraction, prediction, and decision-making into action-oriented pipelines. This role involves working with massive datasets and building production-grade ML infrastructure that supports fast, reliable, and scalable inference for real-time remediation. This is a high-impact, in-office role based in NYC where you’ll collaborate across engineering, product, and customer-facing teams to bring remediation-focused AI agents to life.
What You'll Do
Own and evolve the Teleskope remediation and classification pipeline across multiple data modalities (e.g., text, documents, tables, images).
Build and maintain agentic systems that unify information extraction with automated action-taking workflows.
Apply modern NLP and LLM-based techniques for classification, clustering, summarization, and agent-driven decision-making.
Define and build processes for evaluation, validation, and continuous monitoring of models and agents.
Collaborate with product and engineering teams to integrate AI-driven remediation agents into customer-facing workflows.
Stay on top of research and best practices in applied NLP, LLMs, and agentic architectures, contributing to the evolution of our ML stack.
What You Bring
4+ years of experience in applied NLP.
Demonstrated success building and deploying LLM pipelines, agentic systems, or applied NLP models in production.
Experience across the ML lifecycle: data preprocessing, model training, evaluation, and deployment.
Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD in Computer Science, Computational Linguistics, or related field—or equivalent experience.
Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
Must be based in New York City—this is an in-office role.
What You'll Get
An opportunity to join an early stage startup in one of today’s fastest growing markets.
Space to build impactful features and own projects from start to finish.
Room to learn, grow, and rapidly advance in your data scientist career.
A beautiful, well-stocked office in NYC’s Financial District.
Competitive salary and meaningful equity.
Health, vision, dental, 401k and more benefits, heavily subsidized by Teleskope.
What We Value At Teleskope, we value technical excellence, practical execution, and a strong sense of ownership. We’re looking for team members who bring domain expertise and a passion for shipping impactful ML solutions that meet real-world privacy and security needs.
Compensation Range: $160K - $180K
