Compliance, Audit & Risk Management

• Own and lead HITRUST certification (initial and recertification), including control design, evidence management, assessor engagement, and gap remediation
• Lead SOC 2 Type II audits, including Trust Services Criteria (Security, Availability, Confidentiality, Privacy)
• Oversee HIPAA/HITECH compliance and third-party risk management for customers, partners, and vendors
• Translate audit and risk findings into actionable remediation plans without slowing business execution

Secure Software Development Lifecycle (SSDLC)

• Embed security into all phases of the software development lifecycle (SDLC), including:
• Secure architecture standards
• Threat modeling
• SAST/DAST and dependency scanning
• Secure code reviews and change management
• Partner closely with Engineering, DevOps, and Product teams to enable “secure-by-design” pharmacy and healthcare applications
• Define and enforce security controls for CI/CD pipelines and cloud-native environments (AWS/Azure/GCP)

Incident Response & Security Operations

• Own incident response planning, tabletop exercises, breach response, and regulatory notification processes
• Oversee vulnerability management, penetration testing, and continuous monitoring programs
• Ensure operational readiness for security events affecting pharmacy operations, customer systems, or patient data

Customer, Sales & External Trust Enablement

• Act as executive security liaison for customers, payers, auditors, prospects, and partners
• Support enterprise sales cycles with security documentation, compliance narratives, and customer risk reviews
• Drive trust differentiation through strong external assurance (HITRUST, SOC 2) without creating sales friction

Leadership & Team Development

• Build and lead a high-performing security, GRC, and risk organization
• Mentor technical and non-technical stakeholders on healthcare cybersecurity best practices
• Foster a culture where security enables innovation rather than blocks it
