About the Role:HEROIC Cybersecurity (HEROIC.com) is seeking a senior-level Threat Intelligence Data Engineer - Automated Collection & Dark Web Intelligence to design, build, and operatefully automated intelligence collection systemsthat power our AI-driven cybersecurity and breach intelligence platforms.

This role owns theend-to-end discovery, acquisition, and ingestion pipelinefor continuously discovering, crawling, extracting, indexing, and normalizingmillions of new artifacts daily—including documents, chats, forums, leaked datasets, repositories, threat actor communications, hacker marketplaces, unsecured infrastructure, and decentralized networks across thesurface web, deep web, dark web, and anonymized networks.

Our Threat Research Team’s mission is aggressive:achieve near-total coverage of global breach and leak data with 99%+ automation. Your work directly enables HEROIC’s ability to identify exposures before they are weaponized.

What You Will Do:

Automated Intelligence Collection & Discovery

• Architect and operatelarge-scale, distributed crawling and discovery systemsacross:

• Surface web, deep web, and dark web

• Hacker forums, underground marketplaces, and breach communities

• Chat platforms (Telegram, Discord, IRC, WhatsApp, etc.)

• Paste sites, code repositories, and social platforms used for breach disclosure

• Continuously discover, archive, and download newly released datasets, logs, credentials, and artifacts the moment they appear

Dark Web, Anonymized & Decentralized Networks

• Build automated collectors and archivers for anonymized and decentralized networks including:

• Tor (.onion), I2P, ZeroNet, Freenet, IPFS, GNUnet, Lokinet, Yggdrasil, and similar systems

• Design resilient workflows for unreliable, adversarial, or ephemeral data sources

• Normalize and index data from non-traditional network protocols and formats

Infrastructure & Exposure Discovery

• Develop automated scanning systems to identify:

• Unsecured databases (Elasticsearch, MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, etc.)

• Exposed cloud storage (S3, Azure, GCP, DigitalOcean Spaces)

• Open FTP servers, backups, and misconfigured archives

• Monitor and ingest data from file hosting and distribution platforms commonly used for breach dumps

Pipeline Engineering & Operations

• Build ETL pipelines to clean, normalize, enrich, and index structured and unstructured data

• Implement advancedanti-bot evasion strategies(proxy rotation, fingerprinting, CAPTCHA mitigation, session management)

• Integrate collected intelligence into centralized databases and search systems

• Design APIs and internal tooling to support downstream analysis and AI/ML workflows

• Implement advanced anti-bot, evasion, and resiliency techniques (proxy rotation, fingerprinting, CAPTCHA mitigation, session handling)

• Automate deployment, scaling, and monitoring using Docker, Kubernetes, and cloud infrastructure

• Continuously optimize performance, reliability, and cost efficiency of crawler clusters

Requirements

• Minimum 4 years of hands-on experience indata engineering, intelligence collection, crawling, or distributed data pipelines

• Strong Python expertise and experience with frameworks such as Scrapy, Playwright, Selenium, or custom async systems

• Proven experience operatinghigh-volume, automated data collection systems in production

• Deep understanding of web protocols, HTTP, DOM parsing, and adversarial scraping environments

• Experience with asynchronous, concurrent, and distributed architectures

• Familiarity with SQL and NoSQL databases (PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Elasticsearch, Cassandra)

• Strong Linux/Unix, shell scripting, and Git-based workflows

• Experience deploying and operating systems using Docker, Kubernetes, AWS, or GCP

• Excellent analytical, debugging, and problem-solving skills

• Strong written and verbal communication skills.

Preferred / High-Value Experience

• Direct experience withdark web intelligence, breach data, OSINT, or threat research

• Familiarity with Tor, I2P, underground forums, stealer logs, or credential ecosystems

• Experience processing large breach datasets or stealer logs

• Background working inadversarial data environments

• Exposure to AI/ML-driven intelligence platforms

Benefits

• Position Type:Full-time

• ​Location:Remote in India.Work from wherever you please! Your home, the beach, our offices, etc.

• Compensation:USD 1300-2000 monthly

• Professional Growth:Amazing upward mobility in a rapidly expanding company.
