Data Analyst

iVerify is an expert in Mobile Threat Hunting. The first mobile threat hunting company to protect mobile devices like any other vulnerable corporate endpoint. The mobile security market has a problem. Simply put, current solutions fail to meet the sophistication of modern threats or the growing privacy desires of mobile device users. We believe that it is time for something new. Not only because we care deeply about the safety of frontline users like journalists and activists – many of whom are doing important and often dangerous work – but because enterprises and consumers deserve real protection from advanced mobile threats without sacrificing privacy. We are building the first mobile threat hunting company to harmonize security and privacy in the face of a new class of mobile threats. Supported by some of the most well‑respected VC firms, we aim to become the go‑to mobile security solution for individuals who want to know they can trust their devices with their most sensitive information – without sacrificing privacy.


About The Role

We are seeking a Data Analyst to help transform iVerify’s growing dataset into actionable insights that guide engineering, research, and product decisions. This role sits at the intersection of data, security research, and product development, helping uncover meaningful patterns in mobile telemetry, detect anomalies, and guide decision‑making across the organization. You’ll analyze structured and semi‑structured datasets from millions of mobile events, build dashboards, track key performance metrics, and help our researchers identify new threat behaviors and trends across iOS and Android devices. Your work will directly empower our security research team to focus on investigations and detection, while ensuring our engineering team builds from data‑driven insights. You’ll also help translate complex telemetry into product‑level intelligence, uncover trends that inform detection strategy, and surface insights that shape how iVerify evolves its threat models and platform capabilities. As one of the foundational members of iVerify’s data function, you’ll shape our analytics stack, define best practices, and build the pipelines and dashboards that scale with the company’s growth.

  • Use Python and the modern data science stack (Pandas, Jupyter, NumPy, Matplotlib, or equivalent) to perform deeper statistical or exploratory analysis.
  • Build visualizations and dashboards in Tableau, Power BI, Looker Studio, or similar BI tools.
  • Collaborate with researchers to validate hypotheses about threat activity or telemetry anomalies.
  • Conduct ad hoc analyses to support product and detection improvements.
  • Document key findings and communicate insights to both technical and non‑technical audiences.
  • Partner with data engineers to improve dataset availability, structure, and performance for analytical workloads.
  • Work with the ML team to analyze model outputs, validate detection metrics, and support ongoing model evaluation efforts.

Requirements

  • 4+ years of experience as a Data Analyst, Product Analyst, or similar analytical role.
  • Advanced SQL skills and hands‑on experience working with large datasets.
  • Strong Python proficiency for data analysis (Pandas, NumPy, Jupyter).
  • Experience building reports and visualizations with Tableau, Power BI, or equivalent BI tools.
  • Proven ability to identify trends, anomalies, and correlations within complex datasets.
  • Experience working cross‑functionally with engineering, research, and product teams.

Machine Learning Jobs for Career Switchers in Their 30s, 40s & 50s (UK Reality Check)

Are you considering a career change into machine learning in your 30s, 40s or 50s? You’re not alone. In the UK, organisations across industries such as finance, healthcare, retail, government & technology are investing in machine learning to improve decisions, automate processes & unlock new insights. But with all the hype, it can be hard to tell which roles are real job opportunities and which are just buzzwords. This article gives you a practical, UK-focused reality check: which machine learning roles truly exist, what skills employers really hire for, how long retraining realistically takes, how to position your experience and whether age matters in your favour or not. Whether you come from analytics, engineering, operations, research, compliance or business strategy, there is a credible route into machine learning if you approach it strategically.

How to Write a Machine Learning Job Ad That Attracts the Right People

Machine learning now sits at the heart of many UK organisations, powering everything from recommendation engines and fraud detection to forecasting, automation and decision support. As adoption grows, so does demand for skilled machine learning professionals. Yet many employers struggle to attract the right candidates. Machine learning job adverts often generate high volumes of applications, but few applicants have the blend of modelling skill, engineering awareness and real-world experience the role actually requires. Meanwhile, strong machine learning engineers and scientists quietly avoid adverts that feel vague, inflated or confused. In most cases, the issue is not the talent market — it is the job advert itself. Machine learning professionals are analytical, technically rigorous and highly selective. A poorly written job ad signals unclear expectations and low ML maturity. A well-written one signals credibility, focus and a serious approach to applied machine learning. This guide explains how to write a machine learning job ad that attracts the right people, improves applicant quality and strengthens your employer brand.

Maths for Machine Learning Jobs: The Only Topics You Actually Need (& How to Learn Them)

Machine learning job adverts in the UK love vague phrases like “strong maths” or “solid fundamentals”. That can make the whole field feel gatekept especially if you are a career changer or a student who has not touched maths since A level. Here is the practical truth. For most roles on MachineLearningJobs.co.uk such as Machine Learning Engineer, Applied Scientist, Data Scientist, NLP Engineer, Computer Vision Engineer or MLOps Engineer with modelling responsibilities the maths you actually use is concentrated in four areas: Linear algebra essentials (vectors, matrices, projections, PCA intuition) Probability & statistics (uncertainty, metrics, sampling, base rates) Calculus essentials (derivatives, chain rule, gradients, backprop intuition) Basic optimisation (loss functions, gradient descent, regularisation, tuning) If you can do those four things well you can build models, debug training, evaluate properly, explain trade-offs & sound credible in interviews. This guide gives you a clear scope plus a six-week learning plan, portfolio projects & resources so you can learn with momentum rather than drowning in theory.
