About The Position

At Binalyze, we’re changing how security teams investigate incidents and build resilience. Our platform gives defenders forensic-level visibility with automation at its core - helping organizations move faster, reduce risk, and operate with confidence during high-stakes moments. We’re now hiring a Forward Deployed Security Architect (FDSA) to partner with our customers and ensure Binalyze delivers measurable security outcomes, not just successful deployments. We’re looking for a senior security leader who combines strategic program thinking, executive-level credibility, and selective hands-on technical execution to guide customers toward higher security maturity.

Requirements

Strong background in cybersecurity (e.g. IR, SOC operations, detection engineering, security engineering, DFIR)
Experience in leadership roles
Proven ability to lead security programs, not just implement tools
Comfort influencing executive stakeholders while coaching operational teams
Strong technical fluency with the judgement to apply it selectively
Experience working across complex stakeholder environments and ambiguous problem spaces
Interest in AI-driven and automated approaches to security operations

Responsibilities

Act as a trusted security advisor and program architect, working directly with CISOs, security leaders, and operational teams within customer environments to align Binalyze’s capabilities to real-world risk, workflows, and outcomes.
Operate at the intersection of strategy, operations, and technology, knowing when to lead at the executive level - and when to go hands-on alongside customer teams to unblock progress.
Partner with CISOs and senior stakeholders to understand security strategy, business context, and risk appetite
Translate security objectives and policies into executable programs and measurable outcomes
Build alignment across security, IT, engineering, and business teams
Guide customers toward meaningful improvements in detection, response, and forensic readiness - not just tool adoption
Define success metrics across detection, response, readiness, and investigation workflows
Establish operational cadence, track progress, and ensure follow-through on initiatives
Conduct maturity assessments and identify opportunities for continuous improvement
Act as a steady, trusted presence during complex initiatives or high-stakes moments
Design and optimize workflows across:
Strategic (governance, measurement, continuous improvement)
People (incident escalation, coordination, communication)
Product (detection logic, response playbooks, enrichment pipelines)
Ensure workflows align to customer objectives while leveraging Binalyze’s strengths
Maintain deep technical fluency across security operations and forensic workflows
Define or prototype targeted integrations, automations, or SOAR playbooks when needed to unlock outcomes
Validate technical workflows and support POCs for new capabilities
Stay close enough to the tooling and data to maintain strong technical credibility
Apply AI and no-code / low-code automation tools (e.g. Zapier, Make, Notion AI, ChatGPT, Airtable) to streamline workflows
Help customers and internal teams adopt more automated, intelligence-driven ways of working
Continuously explore and apply emerging AI capabilities to accelerate security outcomes
