Company Summary : TENEX.AI is an AI-native, automation-first, built-for-scale Managed Detection and Response (MDR) provider. We are a force multiplier for defenders, helping organizations enhance their cybersecurity posture through advanced threat detection, rapid response, and continuous protection. Our team is comprised of industry experts with deep experience in cybersecurity, automation, and AI-driven solutions. We're a fast growing startup backed by industry experts and top tier investor Andreessen Horowitz. As an early employee, you'll play a meaningful role in defining and building our culture. Get in on the ground floor. We're a small but well-funded team that just raised a substantial round - joining now comes with limited risk and unlimited upside. We are rapidly growing and seeking top talent to join our mission of revolutionizing the cybersecurity landscape.

The Opportunity : We are seeking a highly motivated and detail-oriented Threat Intelligence Engineer to join our growing cybersecurity team. This role will support our threat intelligence efforts by collecting, analyzing, and reporting on emerging threats to enhance our overall security posture. You will be instrumental in assisting with the development of our threat intelligence program, collaborating with various security functions, and proactively identifying and helping to mitigate risks.

Culture is one of the most important things at TENEX.AI-check out our culture deck at culture.tenex.ai to experience how we champion it, valuing the unmatched collaboration and community of in-person work while offering flexibility for the best of the best.

The ideal candidate will be able to work onsite at our HQ based in Sarasota, FL (Tampa Metro Area) or Overland Park, KS (Kansas City Metro Area) location.

This role is for the extraordinary-the pinnacle 10x of 10x legends in any role- where we make exceptions to our in-person hiring to champion full remote, empowering you to conquer without boundaries while still inviting you to join our in-person energy from time to time. Please be aware that the competition for these remote roles is exceptionally fierce, and the standards for selection are significantly higher.

To be direct up front - If you're looking at this position and you are not located in either of our physical locations, we strongly recommend you consider accepting one of our lucrative relocation packages to our epic hubs in Sarasota, Florida (outside Tampa), or Overland Park in the Kansas City metro-where trailblazers redefine cybersecurity with 10x impact!

In the Tampa Metro Area, you can break free from overly inflated cost of living sky-high taxes (like those of you trapped in California or New York) via our incredibly aggressive relocation packages, enjoying zero state income tax, boundless personal freedom, a pro-business surge, endless sunshine, and a pro-family haven in the master-planned Lakewood Ranch with elite amenities and vibes.

In the KC Metro Area, leverage those same powerhouse relocation perks for lower taxes, authentic Midwest values of integrity and community, and a supportive, family-oriented ecosystem for enduring wins.
