This is an entry-level partner-facing role on the SOC Support team. You will help partners understand and respond to security incidents while coordinating with Huntress Security Operations, Product Support, Engineering, Detection Engineering, Sales/CAM, and other internal teams.
You will manage work across a global support queue and provide clear, calm communication through email, chat, and outbound phone calls. The role combines customer support, basic cybersecurity troubleshooting, structured escalation, incident communication, and disciplined follow-through. You will receive structured training and build independence progressively through shadowing, reverse shadowing, coached queue work, and increasingly independent partner interactions.
What you'd do
- Foundational understanding of cybersecurity concepts, with interest in endpoint security, identity compromise, phishing, incident response, and security monitoring.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to explain technical information to partners with different levels of security experience.
- The ability to remain calm, empathetic, organized, and solution-focused when supporting a partner through an active incident or a high-friction situation.
- Sound judgment about urgency, priorities, ownership, and when to ask for help or escalate.
- The ability to follow a documented process while still asking questions, challenging assumptions, and investigating when a ticket does not look right.
- Comfort managing competing priorities in a dynamic queue and maintaining reliable participation in scheduled live coverage.
- A collaborative approach to working in public internal channels and with teammates across regions and functions.
- Self-awareness, resourcefulness, and the ability to work independently in a remote environment while actively seeking guidance when needed.
- A learning mindset and willingness to build proficiency in Huntress products, Zendesk workflows, incident reports, escalation procedures, and partner communication.
- Availability for occasional scheduled weekend or on-call/call-in coverage, subject to the team’s operating model and applicable policy.
