You will be responsible for building, automating, and maintaining our security controls while acting as a key responder to security incidents. If you thrive in a fast-paced environment where you are empowered to own your domain, automate repetitive tasks, and directly safeguard patient and organizational data, this role is for you. ## What You Will Do - Design, implement, and maintain hands-on SecOps workflows, threat detection, and incident response procedures across our corporate and cloud infrastructure. - Build low-code and custom automations (using tools like Torq) to streamline security alerts, routine IT security tasks, and incident triage. - Administer, optimize, and manage key security and endpoint management tools, including Sumo Logic, Jamf, Intune, Slack Enterprise, CrowdStrike, and related platforms. - Maintain and support continuous compliance with SOC2 and HIPAA security controls, actively participating in audit preparation, evidence gathering, and control enforcement. - Partner with cross-functional IT and engineering teams to harden systems, enforce zero-trust endpoint policies, and secure employee workflows. - Conduct root-cause analysis on security incidents and proactively implement preventative security measures to eliminate recurring risks. ## What We Are Looking For - Experience: 3–5 years of dedicated hands-on experience in Security Operations, IT Security, or System Administration with a strong security focus. - Incident Response: Proven background in actively detecting, investigating, and remediating security incidents in a modern cloud/hybrid environment. - Technical Depth: Deep foundational IT background spanning endpoint administration (macOS/Windows), identity management, and network security. - Compliance Standards: Demonstrated experience maintaining controls for SOC2 and/or HIPAA frameworks in an operational setting. - Automation Mindset: Hands-on experience automating security operations or IT tasks using SOAR platforms, scripting (Python, PowerShell, Bash), or API integrations. Bonus - Direct experience implementing SOC2 or HIPAA controls from scratch or directly interfacing with external auditors. - Hands-on familiarity with our specific technology stack: Sumo Logic, Jamf, Intune, Slack Enterprise, CrowdStrike, and Torq. - Relevant industry certifications (e.g., Security+, Network+, GIAC, or vendor-specific platform certifications).

Esteemed health systems like Mayo Clinic, Cedars-Sinai, Mass General Brigham, Hackensack Meridian Health, and Hartford Healthcare partner with K Health to build and run modern primary virtual care clinics on their behalf. Our deeply integrated model modernizes the primary care loop by using AI to put humans first. For our patients, we offer clinical AI (i.e., PatientGPT) and unparalleled access to close care gaps around the clock. For our Providers, we deliver provider-serving agentic solutions (i.e., Perfect Note) to eliminate administrative overload and burnout. And for the health systems, we deploy our top-grade Virtualists in AI-powered virtual clinics 24/7 to capture the patients' care journeys at step one, retain the journey through the system for longitudinal care, and strengthen profitability. We’re founded in 2016, headquartered in New York City, and backed by nearly $400 million from leading investors including Valor Equity Partners, Claure Group, Mangrove Capital Partners, 14W, Notable Capital, Lerer Hippeau, Primary Venture Partners, Comcast Ventures, PICO Venture Partners, Max Ventures, and other strategic healthcare partners.
