Senior Program Manager, Brand & Marketing

Department: Marketing

Daylight is a security services company delivering Managed Agentic Security Services (MASS), including MDR, threat hunting, security data lake, and more, through a fundamentally different architecture than traditional security services providers.

Daylights architecture combines an agentic platform that runs the full cycle from detection to response with security experts from IR and threat hunting backgrounds. The platform collects identity and business context across systems to investigate alerts and continuously learns your environment.
