Who are we?
UpGuard’s mission is to protect the world’s data. We obsessively seek out elegant, robust ways to enable our customers to find, acknowledge, and remediate cyber risk. With UpGuard, organizations leverage our security expertise and software to automate what was once laborious, spreadsheet-driven processes–whether it's monitoring the attack surface of hundreds of vendors or assessing the security of their own infrastructure. UpGuard is used by some of the world’s largest, fastest-growing, and most innovative companies. 

Our Analytics team at UpGuard supports all of our teams to extract key insights from the data that we collect. We extract data from multiple sources and build insightful dashboards to display key metrics and support leaders to make decisions. We also build integrations between systems to seamlessly collect required data. 


Where does this role fit in?
UpGuard is expanding its analytics and automation capabilities by establishing the Analytics, Automation & AI (A3) team. We are seeking a business-first leader with strong expertise in analytics, automation, and AI adoption to drive operational efficiency, data-driven decision-making, and workflow automation across the company.

As the Director of A3, you will build the team from the ground up, overseeing the development of an automation-first culture, ensuring that AI and analytics are embedded into business processes to improve efficiency, reduce manual work, and enhance decision-making. You will work closely with Revenue Ops, Product Ops, Marketing Ops, and other operational teams, embedding specialists over time to create seamless automation integrations.

You will also own all n8n workflows across the company, ensuring a centralized and scalable automation infrastructure. While AI-driven product features remain under Product & Engineering, your team will support inter-company workflows that involve multiple departments. 

This role directly reports to the COO, ensuring strong alignment with company-wide operations.
