The Role

The Threat Intelligence Analyst is responsible for leveraging Proofpoint data and telemetry to deliver cyber threat intelligence reporting to customers, both through email and regular live customer-facing briefings and presentations. Candidates will conduct threat analysis, apply analytics to threat intelligence, conduct briefings, field customer inquiries, engage internal SMEs, and initiate improvements to existing program framework, processes, and deliverables.

This role is roughly 70% core analysis and production, 30% enablement — supporting sales with intelligence-backed narratives, demos, and customer engagement. This is a hybrid role at the intersection of intelligence and go-to-market, ideal for someone who wants to grow into a leadership or evangelist-type position.

Your-day-to-day

• You will be assessing and analyzing a customer’s security environment and ongoing threats, pointing out unusual or interesting threats, then recommending tactical (configuration, product / operational policy or implementation) and strategic improvements directly to customers through both email and regular live presentations.
• This customer facing role requires hands-on preplanned investigations, on-demand inquiries, and unstructured data analysis, but also uses soft skills to discuss, recommend, advocate, and track changes and improvements to advance a customer’s security posture.
• Your success is incumbent on providing customers greater visibility, context, and insight into the threats they face and suggestions on how to respond to them. Collaborate with Sales on pre-sales calls and RFP responses, providing subject matter expertise.
• Develop and present use-case driven briefings to prospective clients (threat landscape, sector-specific risks, adversary trends).
• Create and maintain sales enablement materials (one-pagers, case studies, sample reports, FAQs).
• Partner with customer account teams to ensure smooth onboarding and highlight service value during renewals.
• Act as a bridge between intelligence operations and GTM teams, ensuring customer feedback informs intelligence priorities.
