About This Role

We're building a new healthcare clearinghouse and seeking a Head of Security to take full ownership of security at Stedi, reporting directly to the CEO. The ideal candidate has significant experience owning security programs in cloud-native environments and deep technical ability in the security domain.

Requirements

  • Own and build Stedi's security program end-to-end, including policies, controls, procedures, security tooling, training, vulnerability management, vendor risk, and more.
  • Be a strong hands-on contributor from day 1 while also building a roadmap for scaling the security function as the company continues to grow.
  • Advise on security risk tied to product decisions, architecture, and partnerships.
  • Leverage our best-in-category security posture to unlock new customers and strategic relationships.
  • Partner with Engineering to maintain security excellence while minimizing development friction.
  • Lead breach preparedness and incident response: build, test, and own the Security Incident Response Plan, Disaster Recovery, and Business Continuity programs so Stedi can detect, contain, and recover rapidly in the unlikely event of a significant issue.
  • Represent Stedi in conversations with customer and partner security leadership teams, and provide clear, regular reporting on security posture and risk to the executive team and board.
  • Partner with Legal on regulatory obligations, breach notification requirements, and the legal dimensions of security incidents - be ready to engage directly with regulators should the need ever arise.
  • Build mechanisms for continuous security improvement, and establish practical, role-appropriate security training across the company.
