Job Description
TENEX is a pioneering AI-native, automation-first Managed Detection and Response (MDR) provider, designed specifically to scale with the evolving cybersecurity landscape. As a forward-thinking cybersecurity company, TENEX empowers organizations by enhancing their security postures through cutting-edge threat detection, accelerated response mechanisms, and continuous protection services. Our team comprises industry veterans with deep expertise in cybersecurity, automation, and AI-based solutions. We operate as a powerful force multiplier for defenders, helping businesses stay ahead of increasingly sophisticated cyber threats. Our innovative solutions and relentless commitment to security excellence place us at the forefront of the AI-Native MDR industry.
Established as a fast-growing startup, TENEX benefits from strong financial backing by top-tier investors, including Crosspoint Capital Partners, Shield Capital, DTCP (formerly Deutsche Telekom Capital Partners), Deepwork Capital, and the Florida Opportunity Fund. Our seed round was famously led by Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), marking us as a company with solid foundations and immense growth potential. Joining TENEX means becoming part of a vibrant culture supported by a committed team passionate about shaping the future of cybersecurity. We emphasize a collaborative, in-person work environment where community and teamwork are paramount, fostering innovation and shared success.
This specific role is based onsite at our Overland Park, Kansas location, requiring full-time, in-office commitment five days a week. As the first point of contact for TENEX’s Overland Park office, you will represent the company to employees, candidates, customers, and visitors alike. Beyond basic reception duties, you will play a crucial role in ensuring smooth office operations, covering everything from building maintenance and meal coordination to meeting support and event assistance. You will embody our customer-first values internally, treating TENEX employees and guests as top priorities to create a welcoming, efficient, and professional environment. This position not only involves managing day-to-day responsibilities but also requires a proactive approach to problem-solving and facility management.
You will oversee important office functions such as managing visitor check-ins, maintaining stock supplies, scheduling catering for team lunches, and ensuring all common areas remain presentable and functional. Your role also extends to managing vendor relationships related to building repairs and maintenance, ensuring any issues are promptly identified and resolved. Furthermore, you will coordinate logistics for onsite meetings and team events, supporting both the office atmosphere and operational excellence. Collaboration with our People Operations team will be essential to cultivate a workplace culture that employees look forward to coming to every day, making your contributions vital to TENEX’s identity and success.
If you are an organized, service-oriented individual with a strong sense of ownership, exceptional communication skills, and a passion for contributing to a dynamic tech startup environment, this role provides an excellent opportunity to excel. At TENEX, you will enjoy continuous learning and development opportunities, competitive compensation, and a supportive community that values innovation and determination. Join us and be part of a team shaping the future of AI-native cybersecurity while making a significant impact from day one.
