Get to Know Us
Horizon3 is a fast-growing, remote cybersecurity company dedicated to the mission of enabling organizations to proactively find and fix and verify exploitable attack vectors before criminals exploit them. Our flagship product, the NodeZeroTM platform, delivers production-safe autonomous pentests and other key assessment operations that scale across the largest internal, external, cloud, and hybrid cloud environments. NodeZero has been adopted by organizations of all sizes, from small educational institutions to government agencies and Global 100 enterprises. It is used by ITOps/SecOps teams, consulting pentesters, and MSSPs and MSPs.
We are a fusion of former U.S. Special Operations cyber operators, startup engineers, and formerly frustrated cybersecurity practitioners. We're committed to helping solve our common security problems: ineffective security tools, false positives resulting in alert fatigue, blind spots, "checkbox” security culture, cybersecurity skills shortage, and the long lead time and expense of hiring outside consultants. Collectively, we are a team of learn it alls, committed to a culture of respect, collaboration, ownership, and results.
Horizon3 is in search of a dynamic Product Manager (PM) to own and accelerate NodeZero's compliance and reporting capabilities — the layer that turns autonomous penetration testing results into audit-ready evidence and executive-ready narrative. As enterprises adopt NodeZero to satisfy SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI-DSS, HIPAA, NIST CSF/800-53, and FedRAMP/CMMC obligations, this PM owns the product surface where attack results become compliance proof — for security practitioners, auditors, and the C-suite.
We are seeking a Senior/Staff Product Manager Compliance & Reporting to use your GRC fluency and product craft to make NodeZero the system of record enterprises trust for audit-ready evidence — across every op type (Internal, External, Cloud, WebApp). You'll partner closely with Engineering, GTM, and Executives, own the compliance-mapping and reporting roadmap, and turn the highest-friction renewal and audit blockers into shipped product.
This role will report to the Sr. Manager of our offensive security product suite and take a leadership role in making compliance and reporting a differentiated, horizontal capability across NodeZero.

Own the Reporting Experience

Track report usage/export metrics to prioritize the highest-leverage reporting gaps
