Staff Product Manager, Agentic Data Platform

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.

Location: New York or San Francisco

What You’ll Do:

We are seeking a Staff Product Manager to lead the strategy, development, and evolution of NodeZero’s Agentic Data Platform, including Database-as-a-Service (DBaaS), machine learning infrastructure, and the data services that power our next generation of cybersecurity capabilities.

Every autonomous pentest NodeZero runs generates valuable insights into how real environments can be compromised, from hosts and identities to credentials, vulnerabilities, and attack paths. This role is responsible for turning that data into a scalable, reliable, and intelligent platform that enables product teams, machine learning engineers, and agentic systems to build differentiated security capabilities.

You will own the vision and roadmap for NodeZero’s core data services, including managed relational, graph, and vector databases, the unified asset and attack graph, data APIs, and the infrastructure supporting traditional machine learning development and deployment. This includes training-ready datasets, feature stores, model training pipelines, deployment, monitoring, and governance.

You will also own the financial and operational strategy behind the platform, ensuring infrastructure investments deliver measurable value through improved performance, scalability, cost efficiency, and business outcomes. You will partner closely with Engineering, Finance, and executive leadership to make investment decisions, manage platform economics, and prioritize capabilities that accelerate innovation across NodeZero.

This role requires strong technical depth in data infrastructure, database architecture, machine learning platforms, and cloud services, combined with excellent product judgment and commercial awareness. You will balance architectural trade-offs, reliability, governance, and long-term scalability with the needs of engineering teams and the broader business.

As a senior leader within Product, you will operate with high autonomy, influence executive direction, and serve as the product owner for foundational capabilities that enable innovation across NodeZero. You will define clear success metrics and ensure delivery against platform adoption, performance, reliability, cost efficiency, and business growth goals.

Key Responsibilities:

Data Platform Product Strategy: Define and execute the product vision and multi-quarter roadmap for NodeZero’s data services and machine learning platform. Determine which capabilities should be centralized, evaluate build-versus-buy decisions, and align platform investments with business priorities, customer outcomes, and long-term product differentiation.

Database-as-a-Service (DBaaS) Ownership: Lead the evolution of managed relational, graph, and vector data services, including self-service provisioning, scaling, migrations, upgrades, and lifecycle management. Ensure data infrastructure delivers the reliability, performance, security, and flexibility required by internal teams and enterprise customers.

Asset and Attack Graph Infrastructure: Own the product strategy for NodeZero’s unified asset and attack graph, including complex data relationships, multi-hop query performance, data freshness, consistency, and scalable access to offensive security intelligence.

Data Architecture, APIs, and Integrations: Partner closely with Engineering to define scalable data models, query APIs, change-data-capture pipelines, event streams, schema governance, and platform abstractions that enable product, ML, and agent teams to build efficiently on shared infrastructure.

Machine Learning Platform Strategy: Own the infrastructure supporting traditional machine learning workflows, including training pipelines, feature stores, experiment tracking, model registries, batch and real-time inference, deployment, monitoring, and evaluation standards. Enable teams to develop, deploy, and operate production ML models reliably.

Training Data and Data Quality: Define capabilities for curated, versioned, and documented training datasets derived from pentest and platform data. Drive data quality, lineage, reproducibility, labeling pipelines, ground-truth collection, and consistent offline and online features that support classification, entity resolution, risk scoring, prioritization, and anomaly detection.

Platform Reliability and Operational Excellence: Drive the capabilities required for high availability, scalability, disaster recovery, backup and restore, multi-region readiness, and operational resilience. Partner with Engineering to establish SLOs, data quality SLAs, observability, and performance metrics that ensure dependable platform services.

Data Security and Governance: Define product requirements for tenant isolation, hierarchical multi-tenancy, data access controls, encryption, retention, deletion, and sensitive security artifact handling. Ensure training data and machine learning workflows support contractual requirements, customer consent, anonymization, auditability, and model governance.

Infrastructure Cost and FinOps Strategy: Own the product requirements and business strategy for managing data and ML infrastructure costs. Develop investment business cases, evaluate total cost of ownership and ROI, partner with Finance on budgets and forecasts, and drive cost visibility, optimization, and accountability across teams, products, and tenants.

Business Ownership and Commercial Strategy: Own the platform’s business performance, including its contribution to ARR, retention, expansion, and gross margin. Identify opportunities for pricing, packaging, monetization, and differentiated customer value. Evaluate market opportunities, competitive positioning, and investment priorities to support long-term growth.

Platform Adoption and Customer Value: Drive adoption of shared data and ML capabilities across internal product and engineering teams, including migration from legacy solutions. Engage with customers and cross-functional stakeholders to understand requirements, improve activation and usage, and identify opportunities to deliver measurable customer value.

Cross-Functional Leadership and Execution: Collaborate closely with Engineering, ML Engineering, Design, Finance, Sales, Marketing, Cust
