Job description

Sr Manager, Technical Support

ExtraHop is reinventing Network Detection and Response (NDR) to help enterprises and organizations stay ahead of emerging threats with unmatched network visibility, context, and control.

Today's attackers bypass traditional security defenses through identity-based entry, move invisibly across cloud, on-premise, and data center networks using encryption and trusted applications, and exploit and exit whenever they want. But all of that movement is visible on the network... if you can see it.

By combining the power of NDR with Network Performance Management (NPM), Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS), and forensics in a single, integrated platform, ExtraHop can decrypt and unlock complete packet-level data at wire speed, analyze and correlate it across all your networks, applications, devices, and users with cloud-scale machine learning, and provide a single interface to the SOC to detect, investigate, and remediate modern cyber risks in real time.

Sr. Manager, Technical Support must support a remote-first, flexible shift schedule. In this role you will lead our talented team of Support Engineers, Team Leaders, and Managers. In this critical role, you will be responsible for ensuring our customers receive world-class technical support for our complex cybersecurity products. You will build and mentor a high-performing team, drive operational excellence, and act as a key liaison between our customers and our product and engineering teams. This is an exciting opportunity for a technical leader with a passion for cybersecurity, customer success, and building scalable support operations in a dynamic SaaS environment.
