About The Position

Huntress is a fully remote, global team of passionate experts and ethical badasses on a mission to break down the barriers to cybersecurity. Whether creating purpose-built security solutions, hunting down hackers, or impacting our community, our people go above and beyond to change the security game and make a real difference. Founded in 2015 by former NSA cyber operators, Huntress protects all businesses—not just the 1%—with enterprise-grade, fully owned, and managed cybersecurity products at the price of an affordable SaaS application. The Huntress difference is our One Team advantage: our technology is designed with our industry-defining Security Operations Center (SOC) in mind and is never separated from our service. We protect 4M+ endpoints and 7M+ identities worldwide, elevating underresourced IT teams with protection that works as hard as they do. As long as hackers keep hacking, Huntress keeps hunting. As the Director of Security Operations & Enablement (SO&E), you will build and lead a brand-new sub-department designed to be the engine of scalability for the entire Security organization. In this high-impact role reporting directly to the Chief Security Officer, you will drive business process improvements, professional development, and technical innovation to support our hypergrowth. You will function as a strategic architect, overseeing a team dedicated to maturing our People, Process, Technology, and Information. Your mission is to ensure the Security Department, and by extension, the company, can handle rapid expansion without compromising quality, efficiency, or morale. You will lead three core functional areas: Security/Technical Training, Security Operations, and Security Enablement Engineering.

Strategic Vision: Ability to translate high-level business goals (e.g., "scale to 10M endpoints") into actionable operational roadmaps.
Innovation: A forward-thinking approach to technology, with a keen interest in how AI and automation can augment human capabilities in cybersecurity.
