Joining our team means being part of a passionate group focused on transforming how companies understand and connect with their customers.

Let's build experiences people love-together.

• Act as an initial point of contact for the Security queue: triage, prioritize and route tickets, resolve routine requests and elevate the rest, and automate the handling of recurring request types.
• Triage endpoint and security alerts and DLP events using runbooks and AI-assisted analysis, following up with employees and escalating real issues. Own the continuous improvement of this process by analyzing alert volume and false-positive rates, tuning detections with the owning teams, and automating enrichment and first-pass triage.
• Participate in incident response, including triage of employee-reported phishing and social engineering attempts and drafting internal security notices, and drive the follow-up after each incident: post-incident reviews, runbook updates, and process or tooling changes.
• Review, validate and refine AI-drafted responses to security questionnaires, RFPs and due diligence requests for Sales, pulling in subject matter experts when needed. Keep the answer library, standard responses and Trust Center documents accurate as the source of truth for those responses, and handle Trust Center access requests.
• Join customer calls to walk through Auros's security posture, with support from senior team members.
• Run first-pass vendor security reviews as part of third-party risk management, using AI to summarize vendor documentation and flag gaps.
• Review requests for new software, browser extensions and AI tools against the approval process, and route AI requests through the AI use case intake.
• Support access checks, customer data deletion requests, reporting of impersonation or fraudulent domains, and internal and external audits.
• Build and maintain automations, AI agents and integrations across our security tools to cut manual work, and keep runbooks current as living documents that both people and AI tooling can execute.
• Define and track operational metrics such as time to triage, time to resolve and questionnaire turnaround, and use them to prioritize improvements, pilot new tools or ways of working, and show their impact.
• Demonstrate Auros's values through work product and day-to-day team interactions.

Required Skills/Abilities:

• Strong written and verbal communication skills, including writing clear, accurate answers for customers and explaining technical topics to non-technical audiences.
• Comfortable working directly with customers and internal teams.
• Highly organized, able to manage multiple requests and deadlines and see work through to completion.
• Self-starter who works independently, follows runbooks and knows when to escalation, and also spots what isn't working and takes the initiative to fix it.
• Experience using AI to automate work, ideally including building AI agents or agent-like workflows that took on repetitive tasks and made a team measurably more efficient
• Technical foundation in security operations (e.g. alerting, endpoint, identity and access management) and incident response fundamentals, enough to understand and explain Auros's overall security posture.
• 3 years of experience in security, IT, compliance, or a customer-facing technical role (e.g. support or solutions).

Desirable but not required:

• Familiarity with security frameworks such as SOC 2, ISO 27001 or NIST CSF.
