Principal Customer Advisor

Rapid7’s Managed Services delivers world class, 24/7/365 threat detection, incident response, vulnerability management, and application security services for our customers. As a member of Rapid7’s Customer Advisor team, you are on the front-lines helping clients defend against and respond to today’s biggest threats. Our analysts and scanning operation teams keep a constant watch on our customers and provide guidance and strategies to help identify and remediate significant risks. Rapid7 Customer Advisors are fanatical about security and customer satisfaction, and are just as comfortable working in the weeds with engineers as we are briefing a CISO on a recent breach and security strategy.

Rapid7 Customer Advisors partner with our customers above and beyond the tactical aspects of vulnerability management, application security, and threat detection and incident response. You will work with your customers to increase their resilience against threats through tailored mitigation recommendations, proactive threat awareness reporting, and regular touch-points to discuss IT security initiatives and associated best practices.

As a Lead Customer Advisor, you will work hand-in-hand with the Customer Advisor team to help deliver service to our customers, all while providing strategic guidance to both internal and external stakeholders. You will need to be comfortable working with our various Managed Services teams to help deliver day-to-day tactical reports to our customers, helping triage alerts with analysts, and helping Customers address their security concerns, all while teaming with management to provide high-level strategic ideas and initiatives to continue propelling the group forward.
