About the Job

Requirements

  • At least 10 years of experience in cybersecurity, security operations, security architecture, or security consulting, including senior leadership.
  • Experience operating as a CISO, deputy CISO, SOC leader, security operations executive, or senior security architect, with credibility engaging CISOs, CIOs, and hands-on practitioners.
  • A track record leading change management and helping security organizations adopt new operating models and workflows while bringing stakeholders along.
  • Deep command of SOC operating models and maturity, security information and event management (SIEM), security orchestration, automation and response (SOAR), managed detection and response (MDR), detection, investigation, response, and security automation.
  • Ability to assess complex enterprise environments and scope integrations, connectors, workflows, tuning, and customizations at the right level of detail.
  • Experience leading consultative engagements with senior security stakeholders and turning business goals into measurable outcomes, success criteria, and phased plans.
  • Ability to simplify complex topics for executives without losing practitioners, with clear writing and speaking.
  • A consultative, evidence-driven approach to listening, diagnosing, and constructively challenging assumptions in a way that builds trust.
  • Comfort with ambiguity and early-stage operating models, and ability to build reusable frameworks.
  • Willingness to stay hands-on in technical discovery, platform walkthroughs, workflow design, and live case discussions, and to learn the platform well enough to demonstrate it credibly.

Responsibilities

  • Engage on strategic or complex pre-sales deals and help carry them to a technical and executive win.
  • Scope solutions around the customer's path, including replacing an MDR or MSSP, automating or transforming SOC operations, or displacing a legacy SIEM or SOAR.
  • Define the target operating model, maturity baseline, first use case, and roadmap, planned backward from the customer's strategic deadline.
  • Diagnose complex customer environments, identify architectural, operational, and organizational gaps, and challenge assumptions constructively.
  • Identify and document advisory opportunities that create immediate value, such as licensing optimization, tool consolidation, and detection engineering improvements.
  • Lead executive security conversations and SOC transformation workshops, translating technical pain into business outcomes.
  • Drive adoption, customer satisfaction, and referenceability across advised accounts.
  • Ensure each customer's journey is executing well across the account team and intervene when outcomes are at risk.
  • Build and refine reusable playbooks, frameworks, and transformation models.
  • Mentor the solutions engineers worked alongside and raise the consultative bar across the post-sales team.
  • Bring customer insight to Product, R&D, Services, and Sales to shape the roadmap, workflows, and enablement; route deep implementation work to the appropriate engineering teams rather than owning it.

Desired Qualifications

  • Prior experience as a CISO, deputy CISO, or enterprise SOC leader, ideally with at least 15 years in cybersecurity and 6 years leading a large enterprise SOC.
  • A degree in cybersecurity or information systems.
  • A track record designing or leading SOC transformation, operating model change, or security modernization programs.
  • Experience facilitating executive workshops, roadmap reviews, quarterly business reviews (QBRs), or board-level security discussions.
  • Exposure to managed security service provider (MSSP) or multi-tenant service provider delivery models.
  • Familiarity with AI-driven or agentic security operations and federated SIEM approaches.
  • Experience creating reusable security strategies, operating models, playbooks, or transformation intellectual property.
  • Experience advising across several strategic accounts at once without becoming the permanent account owner.

About the Company

7AI

Autonomous agentic security platform for defenders

7AI builds an agentic security platform that uses AI to act autonomously in real time to defend against cyber threats. Its product, the 7AI Agentic Security Platform, leverages the speed, coordination (swarming), and computational power of AI to make decisions and take actions without human input in order to reach predefined cybersecurity goals. Unlike traditional security tools that require human-led responses, 7AI's agents operate autonomously to detect, respond to, and neutralize threats. The platform aims to give defenders an advantage by enabling rapid, coordinated actions across environments. The company differentiates itself through its autonomous agentic approach, created by renowned cybersecurity experts and backed by major investors, to move beyond manual or semi-automated defense and toward end-to-end autonomous security operations.
