The Manager serves as the frontline leader who translates complex threat intelligence, hunting, and security outcomes into clear executive value, keeping customers confident, engaged, and retained.

- Serve as the senior escalation point for customer security teams (including executives: CISOs, Directors, SOC Leads) during active intrusions, complex investigations, hunts, and critical service issues, providing clear situational awareness, decisive guidance, and executive-level communication under pressure
- Manage the team’s recurring tactical and strategic customer engagements (weekly through quarterly) that translate threat actor activity, policy posture, and attack surface risk into actionable guidance that clearly demonstrate MDR and Threat Hunting service value (especially during lower-activity periods when value is hardest to communicate)
- Define and challenge the quality bar for all MDR and Managed Threat Hunting customer deliverables, establishing review standards, driving continuous improvement based on customer feedback and hunt outcomes, and ensuring outputs consistently reflect the team's expertise and Zscaler's brand

- You operate with urgency, combining speed and quality with a relentless focus on execution to deliver high-impact results quickly.
- You lead with integrity, holding yourself and others to high standards of accountability while building trust through consistent, transparent action.
What We’re Looking for (Minimum Qualifications)
- Foundational understanding of AI/ML technologies and experience leveraging, securing, or positioning AI-driven solutions to optimize outcomes within your functional domain
- Understand threat actor TTPs aligned with the MITRE ATT&CK framework and detection/response opportunities for EDR and Web Proxies
- Proficiency in two or more EDR platforms with experience writing detections and responding to EDR detections
- Proven track record of managing customer-facing deliverable teams and executive stakeholder communication
