About the role

What You’ll Do

  • Design and build secure systems across our APIs, EHR integrations, payments infrastructure, and SaaS products
  • Lead threat modeling and security design reviews for new features — embedded in the development process, not bolted on at the end
  • Identify and remediate vulnerabilities in application code, dependencies, and infrastructure
  • Improve authentication, authorization, and access control systems across our platform (OAuth, RBAC, service-to-service auth)
  • Integrate and maintain security tooling in our CI/CD pipelines — SAST, DAST, dependency scanning
  • Contribute to secure coding standards, internal libraries, and developer-facing security frameworks
  • Support HIPAA and SOC 2 compliance through strong system design and documentation
  • Help raise the security bar across the engineering org through code reviews, education, and pairing with developers

What You’ll Bring

  • 5+ years of software engineering experience, with 1–3+ years focused on application or product security
  • Experience building and securing backend systems in Python, Go, Java, or similar languages
  • Solid understanding of common vulnerabilities and mitigations (OWASP Top 10 and beyond)
  • Hands-on experience securing APIs and implementing authentication/authorization systems (OAuth 2.0, JWT, RBAC)
  • Experience working in cloud environments — we run on AWS and Google Cloud
  • Familiarity with security tooling: SAST, DAST, dependency scanning
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience
