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.

What You’ll Do

The Senior Customer Enablement Manager is responsible for bringing the foundationalHorizon3 Customer Academy to life and helping customers realize value from NodeZero faster.

This role will design, build, and continuously improve a customer learning experience that enables customers to confidently use NodeZero across its capabilities, tiers, workflows, and functionality. The focus is practical, technical, and outcome-oriented: customers should not only understand what NodeZero does, but also be able to use it effectively in their own environments.

You will build customer certifications, technical “how-to” modules, guided learning paths, hands-on exercises, and other enablement experiences that accelerate time to value, improve adoption, and create a consistent standard for customer readiness.

This is a highly hands-on role. You will personally create and refine learning content while partnering closely with Product, Engineering, Customer Success, Sales Engineering, Product Marketing, Attack Research, and other subject-matter experts. The ideal candidate combines strong NodeZero domain knowledge (or the ability to build that knowledge quickly) with excellent instructional design and the ability to translate complex technical concepts into clear, useful, and impactful customer education.

You will work closely with the Head of Global Enablement and the broader enablement, Customer Success, Product, and technical SME communities acrossHorizon3.
