Director, Analyst Relations

About the role

Torq is redefining the AI SOC category. As the Director of Analyst Relations, you will be the chief architect of our reputation among the industry’s most critical influencers. Your mission is to ensure that every relevant analyst at every major firm understands who Torq is, how our tech is unique, and why enterprises prefer Torq to transform how they understand and manage risk.

Responsibilities

• Own the Narrative: Build and lead a world-class AR program that positions Torq as the undisputed leader in the emerging AI SOC category.
• Lead the "Evaluations" War Room: Direct Torq’s participation in major research reports (e.g., Gartner Magic Quadrant, KuppingerCole Leadership Compass, Frost & Sullivan Radar, etc.). Manage the entire lifecycle from technical RFIs to high-pressure executive briefings, ensuring our story is undeniable.
• Bridge Product & Influence: Collaborate closely with Product and Engineering teams to distill advanced concepts into strategic insights that analysts can’t ignore.
• Strategic Feedback Loop: Listen to analysts; bring outside-in competitive intelligence and market trends back to Product Marketing and GTM teams to refine our edge.
• Executive Coaching: Prepare C-suite and technical founders for briefings, ensuring every interaction reinforces Torq’s unique position in the market.

Requirements

• Security Savvy: You live and breathe cybersecurity. You understand SOC personas and pain points, the friction of legacy tools, and how agentic AI is fundamentally changing the game for defenders.
• AR Heavyweight: 8+ years of experience in AR or Corporate Communications, with a proven track record of moving the needle in the B2B security space.
• Agile & Scrappy: Thrive in a high-growth environment where you need to be both the "thinker" and the "doer."
• The Master Communicator: Ability to take a complex, technical "how-to" and turn it into a "why it matters" for a Tier-1 analyst.
• Methodology Expert: Know the Gartner and other firms' playbooks inside and out and know how to navigate their processes to maximize impact.

Benefits

• Category Creators: We aren't following a trend; we are setting the pace for how the modern SOC operates.
• Unmatched Tech: You'll be representing a platform that actually delivers on the promise of the AI SOC spanning the entire threat management lifecycle.
• Remote-First Excellence: We are a distributed team of high-performers who value autonomy, speed, and results. We build AI for a living, and we encourage candidates to use it to prep, research, and sharpen their best work. But we're hiring humans, not chatbots.
