Cyber company Securin expands Albuquerque operations, creating 93 new jobs
ALBUQUERQUE — Securin, an AI-native cybersecurity company servicing clients statewide and across the nation, is expanding its operations with support from the State of New Mexico and the City of Albuquerque, creating 93 new high-wage jobs as demand for its cyber defense services continues to grow.
Securin is currently renovating its new facility and will soon relocate all operations from its existing 3,000-square-foot Uptown office to a new 13,000-square-foot building in the North Valley area. The move reflects both the company's immediate operational needs and its long-term commitment to New Mexico. By growing locally, Securin will deepen its investment in the state's workforce and create additional opportunities for cybersecurity professionals, engineers, analysts, and business operations staff.
The project is expected to create 93 new high-quality jobs with an average annual salary of approximately $71,000, further strengthening New Mexico's growing cybersecurity sector while generating additional economic activity throughout the Albuquerque region.
The State’s Economic Development Department (EDNM) has pledged $250,000 in LEDA assistance, with $100,000 in additional LEDA support from the City of Albuquerque, to help facilitate the company's expansion.
Founded in Albuquerque, Securin has grown into a global company. They serve enterprises, government agencies, school districts, hospitals, utilities, and critical infrastructure organizations to find security risks, test their defenses, and stay ahead of cyber threats.
“Securin represents exactly the kind of innovative, high-growth business we want to see — creating quality jobs, attracting top talent, and reinforcing New Mexico's position as a leader in cybersecurity and technology,” said Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham. “By investing in homegrown companies like Securin, we're creating new opportunities for New Mexicans and building the workforce our growing cybersecurity industry needs.”
“Long before Securin, my work in adversarial security started in the labs at New Mexico Tech – that's where I learned that real resilience only comes from testing something as hard as an attacker would," said Dr. Srinivas Mukkamala, CEO of Securin. "I've always believed New Mexico could be a serious hub for both cybersecurity and AI talent, and this expansion proves it. We're creating high-wage jobs, training the next generation of security and AI professionals, and proving that world-class, offensive-grade security validation – powered by AI – can be built right here".”
“Cybersecurity is one of Albuquerque's fastest-growing industries, and Securin is a big part of that,” said Mayor Tim Keller. “This investment means more jobs, more opportunity, and another local success story that's making a global impact."
We love to see local companies succeed in New Mexico – and Securin demonstrates that companies can launch, scale, and thrive here while competing on a global stage,” said EDNM Secretary Rob Black. “By supporting this expansion, we're helping an innovative, homegrown company hire more staff, strengthen our technology ecosystem, and create career opportunities that keep talented professionals here in our state."
"Helping local companies grow is one of the smartest investments we can make,” said Albuquerque Economic Development Director Max Gruner. “Securin is creating high-quality jobs, expanding a homegrown business, and strengthening Albuquerque's position as a leader in cybersecurity."
