Opportunity details

About this role.

What We Do:

Cybercrime is growing, and more businesses are getting hit by threats that used to target only the biggest organizations. That pushes defenders like us to operate at the highest level, and it deepens our need for good people who want to make a meaningful impact.

Founded in 2015 by former NSA cyber operators, Huntress is a remote-first team working to make enterprise-grade cybersecurity accessible to businesses of all sizes. We work closely with security teams and service providers protecting complex environments, often without the time or headcount to handle it all. That’s why we build our technology in-house and back it with a 24/7 human-led Security Operations Center (SOC). As a result, our platform is never disconnected from the experts who manage it, ensuring our customers’ protection.

Huntress now secures more than 6M endpoints and 17M identities worldwide. Those numbers keep growing because more businesses rely on us to help carry the load and operate with more confidence. Every day, you can see that commitment in how we stand with our customers and how we show up for each other.

Skills and capabilities most closely associated with this opportunity.

Sample interview questions
How would you approach a partner account with an upcoming renewal but declining engagement?

I would review product usage, prior interactions, support trends, and stakeholder changes before engaging the partner. I would then run a structured value review to identify blockers, reconnect the platform to their business goals, agree on a recovery plan, and document clear owners and next steps in the CRM.

Describe how you identify a credible expansion opportunity within an existing account.

I look for evidence such as increased customer demand, underused platform capabilities, new security risks, organizational growth, or unmet operational needs. I validate the opportunity with the right stakeholders, quantify the expected value, and position the recommendation as a solution to a defined business outcome rather than a generic upsell.

How do you balance retention goals with maintaining customer trust?

I prioritize understanding the customer's desired outcomes and ensure recommendations are relevant and achievable. Transparent communication about value, limitations, pricing, and implementation effort builds trust and supports sustainable retention rather than short-term commercial pressure.

What CRM practices help you manage a large book of partner accounts effectively?

I maintain accurate contact maps, renewal dates, opportunity stages, meeting notes, risks, and next actions for every account. I use segmentation, task reminders, dashboards, and regular account reviews to prioritize high-risk renewals and high-potential expansion opportunities.

How would you collaborate with technical and support teams when a partner issue threatens a renewal?

I would clearly communicate the customer impact, urgency, timeline, and desired outcome to the internal teams while staying accountable as the partner's commercial contact. I would coordinate a recovery plan, provide regular updates, confirm resolution with the partner, and capture lessons that can prevent recurrence.
