Imagine this:

A brand-new customer just signed with Expel, and you're the first person they meet. You welcome them aboard and, from the jump, guide them through a seamless implementation experience—one that feels less like onboarding and more like unlocking superhero status.

Within days, they’re up and running, diving into Expel’s platform with clarity and confidence, because you orchestrated every piece to fall into place. Your process was smooth, your coordination flawless, and your team? They were right there with you, supported by your leadership and insight.

Now zoom out: you're not just onboarding one customer. You're helping build and scale a best-in-class implementation practice. You’re setting standards, strengthening playbooks, and continuously identifying how to make onboarding more magical—both for our customers and for our team.

You balance strategy and execution, hands-on delivery and team leadership. You love clear processes, know the value of a well-run project meeting, and never miss a beat. You geek out on reducing time-to-value and believe that onboarding should never feel like an afterthought—it should be the start of something great.

Sound like you?

At Expel, we’re changing the game in managed security.

We’re helping customers understand, trust, and activate our service from day one. If building delightful, scalable, and impactful onboarding experiences fires you up—we’d love to meet you.

  • Provide a collaborative, transparent work culture where experimentation and growth are encouraged.

What you can do for Expel:

  • Lead and execute customer onboardings while building a team that does the same.
  • Own the end-to-end implementation experience for new customers—making it fast, easy, and delightful.
  • Run weekly team syncs, track inflight projects, and escalate risks when needed.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally to identify and raise product improvement opportunities.
  • Create playbooks for complex or delayed onboardings and drive toward continuous improvement.
  • Monitor and improve CSAT post-onboarding.
  • Own metrics and reporting to track implementation performance.
  • Help forecast team capacity needs as we scale.
  • Champion clarity, organization, and empathy in every customer interaction.

  • Can juggle project timelines and priorities without breaking a sweat.
  • Thrives when working cross-functionally to solve problems and build smarter processes.
  • Understands enterprise architecture, cloud deployments, and security tools (EDR, NDR, SIEM, CASB—you know the alphabet soup).
  • Brings knowledge of networking, security frameworks, and compliance standards.

Security that makes sense. We make it easy for your to detect, understand, and fix issues fast.

How we got started

(not in a garage… but in a barn) It was a tweet. ¯\(ツ)/¯ Seriously, when co-founders Dave Merkel, Yanek Korff and Justin Bajko saw @rickhholland tweet back in late 2015 that MSSP customers had endured “the customer service equiv. of taxi drivers” they saw an opportunity. What we found: alerts without any good answers. Digging deeper, we saw three big problems that were dragging the security industry down.

  • Too many confusing security products delivering reams of alerts

  • Not enough security talent to prioritize the alerts and effectively manage the risk

  • MSSPs who had failed to deliver on their promises and there were no good solutions. Some companies were looking at managed detection and response (MDR) providers – but MDRs added a new expense without replacing MSSPs. Most customers were suffering in silence with no alternative.

Our vision

(it’s a bit unorthodox but we DO believe that you can love security)

  • Remember how IT used to run wires and rack servers? Thanks to cloud computing and web services they don’t do that anymore.

  • But if you’re in security you still spend the majority of your time in the weeds massaging alerts and operating products. Or worse, you can’t afford (or find) the people and technology to even do that.

  • We want to flip that equation and create space for you to do what you love about security (even if that’s thinking about it as littleas possible).

Our Approach

(so radical we had to talk ourselves into it) We think our approach is pretty unique. It starts with transparency. We’re busting up the proprietary black-box approach that MSSPs and MDR providers take. In our hold-your-cards-close-to-your-chest industry that’s the radical part. Here’s what we do…

  1. We use the security products you’ve already bought

  2. Our analysts investigate alerts and monitor your environment

  3. When we find a problem we tell you exactly what to do about it

  4. We also tell you how to fix the root cause of problems that happen over and over …that’s it!

Transparency means that you can look behind the curtain while we’re doing ^this^ and see anything (or everything) our analysts are doing for you 24×7 while they’re doing it. Heck, we’ve even built it so you can jump in and work collaboratively with our analysts if you want. Either way, we’ll give you answers to these questions (not more alerts).

  • What’s happening in my environment?

  • What do I need to care about and why?

  • How do I resolve this incident?

  • How can I become more resilient?
