Senior Security Operations Engineer

The Gist

Vim is one of the fastest-growing healthtech companies, building the technology that connects every part of the healthcare ecosystem. We’re solving one of the toughest problems in healthcare: how to make systems, apps, and data truly interoperable.

Our platform enables real-time collaboration between care teams and innovators, with secure data exchange and workflow integrations that happen directly inside clinical and administrative systems. In simple terms: we help healthcare work better. By streamlining workflows and reducing complexity, we help organizations focus on what really matters - delivering better care for patients.

 The Role

We are seeking a Security Operations Engineer to join our Security team, reporting to the CIO. This is a hands-on role where you will design and operate security infrastructure, lead cloud security initiatives, and rethink our security architecture. You'll build AI-powered solutions to automate security triage and response, while partnering cross-functionally with DevOps, IT, and Engineering teams to drive security outcomes across the organization.

What you will do 

• Design, implement, and operate security monitoring capabilities using a SIEM platform to detect, analyze, and respond to threats in real time. Deploy and manage EDR, DLP, CSPM, and other security controls across the environment.

• Build and maintain cloud security architectures, ensuring strong IAM, network segmentation, encryption, and a zero-trust approach across all cloud deployments.

• Continuously evaluate and evolve the security architecture and defense in depth strategy. Integrate tools and systems across the stack to enable unified telemetry, seamless data flow, and automated response actions.

• Develop AI powered agentic solutions and operational automations using n8n. Use Infrastructure as Code to automate deployment, configuration management, and ongoing lifecycle operations for security infrastructure. 

• Create and tune detection rules, build log ingestion pipelines, and conduct proactive threat hunting. Lead monitoring, investigation, and remediation efforts using structured DFIR methodologies.

• Embed security into CI/CD pipelines and broader DevSecOps workflows. Partner with DevOps, IT, and Engineering teams to integrate security into day to day operations and technical decision making.

• Implement and maintain controls aligned with HIPAA, HITRUST, and SOC 2 requirements. Perform security assessments for vendors, SaaS platforms, and internal applications.

Who we are looking for 

• 5+ years of hands-on experience in security operations, incident response, or security engineering.
• Strong background with SIEM platforms for monitoring, threat detection, and alert tuning.
• Proven experience deploying and managing core security technologies, including EDR, DLP, and vulnerability management solutions.
• Solid cloud security expertise across AWS, Azure, and GCP, with a strong understanding of cloud-native controls and architectures.
• Scripting/automation proficiency (Python, Bash, PowerShell) for security automation
• Hands-on experience with workflow automation platforms such as n8n or similar
• Strong understanding of security architecture principles, defense in depth, and modern attacker techniques.
• Familiarity with DevSecOps practices and integrating security into modern SDLC pipelines.
• Highly independent: You take ownership of security challenges and you thrive in ambiguity; you carefully research and recommend solutions and drive execution autonomously
• A great communicator: You're a people person, and you thrive in a fast-paced team environment with high-performance standards
• Capable of working under pressure and delivering quickly
• Flexible: You can see the big picture while staying detail-oriented; you can zoom in and out with ease
• Driven: You bring a strong desire and drive to tackle complex security problems

What is Nice to Have

• Experience building AI/ML-powered security solutions or SOAR platforms
• Background in detection engineering and high-fidelity alert creation
• Container/Kubernetes security expertise
• Security certifications (CISSP, GIAC, cloud security certifications)
