Customer Focus Analyst (Unit 42 MDR)
About The Position
Unit 42’s Managed Detection and Response (MDR) service is growing fast — and we’re building a customer-centric team that blends technical expertise with direct customer engagement. As a Customer Focus Analyst, you’ll act as the front line of communication between our MDR analysts and our customers, helping bridge the gap between incident response and customer understanding. You’ll not only support investigations and incident triage, but also help onboard customers, answer technical questions about reports, alerts, and the service, and manage ongoing communications to ensure clarity, alignment, and satisfaction. This role is ideal for someone who is technical at their core, but enjoys customer interactions, driving clarity, and ensuring our partners feel confident and supported in their cybersecurity journey.
