About Us

We're developing several medical devices for hospital labs. Our first device, already FDA approved, is a sensor that can detect bacteria in bodily fluids, e.g. blood.

We're based in Silicon Valley, with a team of 40 people, and focused on bringing our first product to hospital systems in the USA.

About the Work

We have a blindspot in understanding the IT, compliance, and security requirements of hospital systems and laboratory facilities. We're looking to bring on a CISO advisor who's "been there, done that" with hospital systems to guide our internal team on how to effectively navigate their security and compliance requirements.

Specifically, you'll:

• Provide IT and security guidance on the business operations and infrastructure of the company. We do NOT need any advice for the medical device itself.
  • Google Workspace & document management
  • Encryption standards
  • access controls and authentication
• Conduct an audit and create a laundry list of steps to ensure we're prepared for whatever hospital compliance requirements are thrown our way
• Provide guidance on ISO and SOC2 frameworks, and any others (though we don't store any data in cloud or on premise)
• Work closely with the Head of Product, and Engineering organization. We do not expect this to be a client-facing role.

‍

About You

You should meet all of the following criteria:

• You've worked in IT/Security roles that place medical devices in hospital / lab systems
• You're deeply familiar with the compliance needs of US-based hospital / lab systems, particularly for outside vendors
  • If you don't have significant experience with hospital systems, this won't be the right fit
• Strong general understanding of modern security best practices including data encryption, access controls / authentication, network security, vulnerability management, etc.
