You must demonstrate sound judgment in making trade-offs between short and long-term security and business goals, show resilience, and navigate difficult situations with composure and tact.

You will make risk-based assessments founded on data and facts, deliver results under uncertainty, and influence direction across multiple teams and organizations.
The successful candidate will be:
A people-first leader who hires, develops, and retains high-performing security engineers

Methodically empirical and experimental in approach
A recognized leader in the security field, proactively shaping threat prevention and detection strategies across the organization

Set the vision and multi-quarter roadmap for the team, balancing security outcomes with business priorities and the organization's risk posture
Guide the team on security architecture reviews, threat modeling, secure design, and incident response for large-scale distributed systems handling protected health information (PHI)
Champion an AI First approach, driving the team to apply generative AI, machine learning, and automation to scale threat detection, accelerate security reviews, and reduce manual toil, while managing the security and privacy risks that AI systems themselves introduce
Ensure the team's work meets or exceeds healthcare regulatory and compliance requirements (e.g., HIPAA), and support internal and external audits
Drive risk-based decision-making founded on data and facts, and deliver results under uncertainty and ambiguity
Partner with software development, product, clinical, and compliance teams to embed sound security decisions early and often, minimizing security trade-offs
