Director of Communications | NM, Palo Alto, CA + San Jose, CA

Albuquerque, United States | Posted on 07/28/2026

Securin is an AI-native cybersecurity company. Our Preemptive Exposure Management Platform turns exposure data into clear decisions — giving organizations the confidence to know which risks are exploitable, what to fix first, and how to act before attackers do.

We are seeking an experienced, strategic Director of Communications to lead all internal and external communications efforts – from brand storytelling and media relations to social media and executive visibility.

This is a high-impact leadership role for a seasoned communications professional who can translate complex cybersecurity concepts for diverse audiences, and has strong existing relationships with technology and security journalists. The position is based in New Mexico and reports directly to the Chief Strategy Officer.

Founded in New Mexico, Securin was built on the belief that effective security shouldn’t depend on unlimited budgets or perfect conditions. Our team brings deep experience in offensive security, vulnerability research, and hands-on incident response, including advising state and federal agencies, schools, hospitals, utilities, and critical infrastructure organizations.
