Job summary

Horizon3 is a remote cybersecurity company delivering NodeZero autonomous pentests. We seek a Sr. Software Engineer for the Data Ingestion team to build pipelines that transform raw pentest output into structured data across the NodeZero platform.

You will own ETL components, collaborate with asset inventory and data platform teams, and ensure scalable, high-throughput data processing in AWS/Kubernetes environments.

• Demonstrated experience building and operating data pipelines or ETL systems in production.
• Working knowledge of message queues or event streaming systems (Kafka, RabbitMQ, or equivalent).

Responsibilities

• Design, implement, and operate data ingestion pipelines that process pentest results at scale — scan output, discovered assets, vulnerability findings, and network topology data.
• Own end-to-end delivery of pipeline features: schema design, implementation, testing, deployment, and monitoring.
• Build and maintain ETL components in Go and/or Python that normalize heterogeneous inputs from NodeZero's execution engines.
• Partner with the Asset Inventory and Data Platform teams to define data contracts that connect ingestion to downstream consumers.
