Role Overview

TrendAI is seeking a Strategic Security Advisor to join its team in Riyadh, Riyadh. This full-time role is central to owning business and security outcomes, value realization, and renewal and expansion readiness for a portfolio of strategic customers. The advisor functions as a trusted security expert, guiding security posture evolution and orchestrating post-sales delivery across various functions. The position blends deep security domain expertise with customer success principles, translating purchased credits into measurable security outcomes through a Security Account Success Plan (ASP), architecture-aligned burn curve, and executive engagement cadence.

Key Responsibilities

• Build Account Success Plans with customer executive sponsors, aligning with business objectives, threat landscapes, prioritized workloads, and monthly credit burn plans.
• Design target-state security architectures mapped to customer environments, risk appetites, and compliance obligations; track consumption versus plan and trigger corrective actions when variance exceeds thresholds.
• Conduct security gap analyses, technology fingerprinting, and architecture reviews; design reference architectures and deployment blueprints for workload rollouts (XDR, identity, email, cloud security, exposure management).
• Ensure rapid Time-to-Value (TTV) and deliver meaningful initial security wins for customers.
• Identify expansion opportunities, including credit top-ups, additional modules, and multi-year commitments, based on realized value and security maturity progression.
• Lead monthly value reviews, Quarterly Business Reviews (QBRs), and Executive Business Reviews (EBRs), linking telemetry, usage, and risk scoring to measurable risk reduction, architecture maturity, and business impact.
• Conduct security maturity and architecture assessments using industry frameworks (*, MITRE ATT&CK, NIST CSF, CIS Controls, Zero Trust Architecture) to evaluate posture and define future-state uplift.
• Design and facilitate security workshops, including threat hunting, Capture The Flag (CTF) exercises, tabletop exercises, and architecture deep-dives.
• Prepare executive narratives, PR/FAQ-style briefs, and C-level presentations that connect platform outcomes to reduced business risk and Return on Investment (ROI).
• Maintain renewal health (Green/Amber/Red) with defined actions, owners, and timelines anchored to architecture milestones, proactively developing Get-well Plans with architecture remediation paths.
• Leverage telemetry-driven risk intelligence and predictive health scoring models.
• Convert successful customers into references, case studies, and technical whitepapers showcasing architecture transformation and security outcomes.
• Serve as the trusted voice across post-sales engagements, ensuring a unified approach ("one plan, one intake") across Customer Success, Support, Professional Services, and partners.
• Provide Product, Engineering, and Leadership teams with architecture-grounded insights on adoption challenges, integration gaps, and product roadmap input.

Required Qualifications

• Typically 10+ years of experience in security consulting, cloud security, security architecture, incident response, or security leadership.
• Proven track record managing enterprise accounts with measurable impact on retention, expansion, and customer security outcomes.
• Experience designing or advising on enterprise security architectures, including hybrid/multi-cloud environments, identity frameworks, and detection and response strategies.
• Experience running QBRs/EBRs that connect security architecture decisions to risk reduction and business value.
• Experience in automation and AI tool usage is strongly preferred.
• Experience working with partners, Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs), or Managed Service Providers (MSPs) is a plus.
• Certifications such as CISSP, CISM, CCSP, CRISC, or equivalent demonstrated experience in enterprise security architecture or advisory roles are strongly preferred.
