7AI is a foundational AI security company founded in 2024 by Cybereason co-founders Lior Div and Yonatan Striem-Amit. The company emerged from stealth in February 2025 with a mission to automate the non-human work of the SOC (Security Operations Center). The platform combines a federated SIEM with AI agents that detect, investigate, respond, and hunt threats, supplemented by dedicated threat hunting and threat intelligence capabilities, with humans remaining in the loop for critical decisions. Backed by $166 million in total funding from investors including Index Ventures and Blackstone, 7AI is building the AI foundation for security operations in the agentic era.
As Enterprise Account Executive for Chicago and the surrounding region, you will own enterprise sales strategy and execution for your territory.
