  • Ensure remediation governance, compliance documentation, and closure of cyber audit findings.
  • Develop and refine remediation SLAs, prioritization models, RAID logs, and approval workflows involving business, security, and IT stakeholders.

Required Skills & Qualifications

  • 10+ years of IT project or program management experience, including 5+ years dedicated to security or vulnerability remediation.
  • Must have experience managing both application development and infrastructure-related vulnerabilities, including:

  • Deep understanding of healthcare systems and PHI security risks.
  • Strong knowledge of healthcare compliance frameworks such as HIPAA, HITECH, HITRUST, NIST CSF, CMS.
  • Experience working in distributed delivery models with offshore/onshore teams.
  • Proficient in Agile, Scrum, and hybrid methodologies.
  • Excellent communication, stakeholder influencing, and senior leadership reporting capabilities.

  • CompTIA Security+, CISSP, CISM
  • HITRUST or healthcare security certifications (preferred)
