Lead Agentic Security

Do you want to pioneer the next generation of autonomous security solutions? As Lead Agentic Security at Plain Security Studios, you will take charge of our strategic move into agentic security — leading the evolution from traditional SOC models to AI-augmented security operations. This is a rare opportunity to build the bridge between your expertise in SOC, SIEM, and incident response, and the cutting edge of applied AI.

You will report directly to the VP of Plain Security and lead the transformation of how we design, implement, and scale intelligent agents for threat detection, incident triage, and automated remediation. You’ll also help shape the roadmap for Plain Concepts’ in-house security automation offerings — helping clients shift from reactive defense to autonomous, AI-driven operations.

If you're a seasoned SOC leader ready to elevate your impact through AI, we want to hear from you.

Key Responsibilities

• Security Operations Leadership: Lead and evolve the strategic direction of our SOC-centric offerings, focusing on advanced detection, triage, and incident response practices across cloud and hybrid environments.
• Agentic Security Development: Identify opportunities to automate or optimize key security workflows using intelligent agents, copilots, or orchestrated automation. Guide the team in piloting AI-powered use cases within detection, enrichment, case management, and remediation.
• Client Advisory & Solution Design: Engage with CISOs and security teams to understand pain points in existing operations. Design tailored automation and orchestration strategies aligned with real-world security needs and business goals.
• Product & Platform Ownership: Contribute to the vision and early-stage design of Plain Concepts' security automation tools — including SOC copilots or orchestration modules — and validate use cases with clients.
• Cross-Team Collaboration: Work with AI engineers, cloud architects, and the Offensive AI & Governance leads to integrate detection and response automation into broader cybersecurity offerings.
• Sales Enablement & Pre-Sales Support: Lead consultative engagements with clients and support pre-sales cycles. Prepare technical proposals and contribute to offering development for agentic security services.
• Innovation & Trends: Stay on top of emerging AI applications for cyber defense (e.g., LLMs in SOC, autonomous triage systems, AI-powered threat hunting) and continuously translate those insights into action plans for our teams and clients.

• AI as a Growth Area: Awareness of how AI can be applied in cybersecurity operations (e.g., automation, anomaly detection, LLM agents). Direct experience is not mandatory, but interest and strategic vision in this space are essential.

• Client Engagement & Sales Acumen: Track record in consultative sales or client-facing delivery. Strong ability to identify client pain points, design solutions, and contribute to technical and commercial proposals.
