Job Summary

Lead Analyst Relations to shape Torq’s market position in AI-driven SOC security, engaging top analysts and directing strategic analyst storytelling.

  • Own the AR program and drive participation in major research reports (Gartner, KuppingerCole, Frost & Sullivan) from RFIs to executive briefings.
  • Turn complex security tech into analyst-ready narratives that influence Tier-1 firms.
  • Coach the C-suite for effective, consistent market messaging.

Job Description

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.). You will manage the entire lifecycle from technical RFIs to high-pressure executive briefings, ensuring our story is undeniable.
  • Bridge Product & Influence: Collaborate closely with our Product and Engineering teams to distill advanced concepts into strategic insights that analysts can’t ignore.
  • Strategic Feedback Loop: Don't just talk to analysts; listen to them. Bring outside-in competitive intelligence and market trends back to our Product Marketing and GTM teams to refine our edge.
  • Executive Coaching: Prepare our 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: You have 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: Torq moves fast. You thrive in a high-growth environment where you need to be both the "thinker" and the "doer."
  • The Master Communicator: You can take a complex, technical "how-to" and turn it into a "why it matters" for a Tier-1 analyst.
  • Methodology Expert: You know the Gartner and other firms' playbooks inside and out and know how to navigate their processes to maximize impact.

    Benefits

    • Remote-First Excellence: We are a distributed team of high-performers who value autonomy, speed, and results.
