Our customers are on a journey and you are their sherpa. You get the complexities of balancing the delivery of information technology to a business while at the same time protecting that business from itself and its adversaries. Expel's goal is to create space for our customers to do what they love about security. Our mission is to understand what "create space" means and help and encourage them to achieve it.

We believe it’s important to "meet our customers where they are," whatever that might entail based on where they'd like to take their security. You help us achieve exactly this! A rich background with security technology and understanding of security operations will be invaluable as you form the bridge between our SOC and our customers. A penchant for throwing down the ideal meme at the right time in a shared Slack channel will earn you bonus points. And your ability to take everything you hear and make other parts of our business better will ensure you remain an invaluable member of our team.

As a Manager of Engagement Management you provide leadership and guidance to a team of Engagement Managers as they execute on Expel’s mission. You provide day-to-day management to members of your team, including setting goals, reviewing deliverables and providing coaching.
