Security Engineer, Web Application Security

Datavant is a data platform company and the world’s leader in health data exchange. Our vision is that every healthcare decision is powered by the right data, at the right time, in the right format.

Our platform is powered by the largest, most diverse health data network in the U.S., enabling data to be secure, accessible and usable to inform better health decisions. Datavant is trusted by the world’s leading life sciences companies, government agencies, and those who deliver and pay for care.

By joining Datavant today, you’re stepping onto a high-performing, values-driven team. Together, we’re rising to the challenge of tackling some of healthcare’s most complex problems with technology-forward solutions. Datavanters bring a diversity of professional, educational and life experiences to realize our bold vision for healthcare.

What We’re Looking For

As an Application Security Engineer, you will be responsible for identifying, assessing, analyzing, prioritizing, and coordinating application security vulnerabilities across Datavant’s IT infrastructure, business applications, and cloud environments. You will have a strong technical background in applications security space with SAST, SCA, container scanning, penetration testing, threat modeling, API Security and pipeline integrations.

What You Will Do

Focus primarily on vulnerability assessment, scanning, prioritization in Datavant’s infrastructure and applications including those within the FedRAMP boundary, ensuring follow up on vulnerability remediation efforts managing risk effectively for the organization.
Engage heavily with product and engineering teams to assess all vulnerability risks and communicate to both technical and non-technical team members the risk level, impact, and options for remediation and/or mitigation of risk.
Maintain and implement security scanning solutions in SAST/SCA/Container Security/Cloud/Infrastructure scanning space
Work on building and automating self service dashboards in vulnerability management space
Prepare for and support annual FedRAMP 3PAO assessments by validating control evidence, resolving findings, and reviewing audit artifacts.
Partner with GRC, Platform, Product, and Engineering teams to translate compliance requirements into actionable technical tasks.
Help facilitate quarterly planning discussions by providing strategic prioritization of all security-related requests, including (but not limited to) architectural feedback, vulnerability remediation, compliance control implementation, etc.
Translate compliance control intent into modern engineering workflows. Rather than applying controls literally, decompose their requirements into their core assurance goals, then rebuild them as scalable, low-friction implementations that achieve the same assurance (or better) through automation, auditable development workflows, and practical risk management
Review application projects our development teams build. This will mean putting eyes on code through secure code reviews as well as working with the teams to understand the broad architecture of systems being built. You’ll be very comfortable providing control feedback in a review environment to development teams. You’ll be adept at using your knowledge to the application of practical risk management.
Own new projects for advancing security in our environment. Be the deep technical expert and collaborate with others on the teams to ensure project success. Your impact here cannot be understated, you are a core contributor and have deep influence to empower Datavant greatness

What You Need to Succeed

Strong technical expertise and prior experience in vulnerability assessment space
3+ years of working in vulnerability research, scanning, prioritization
3+ years of working with application security scanning for SAST, SCA, container scanning
Strong understanding of at least one programming language such as Python, Java, Golang,C## (or equivalent language)
Have a deep understanding of Application, Cloud, Container security. You’ll use this knowledge to provide architectural reviews and contributions to our development teams
Have a strong understanding of security controls, both those that exist in audit standards as well as practical controls that can help reduce risk and increase safety in application development environments and AWS and/or Azure
Proven ability to automate/ build solutions
Strong communication skills
You understand how the broad parts of a security team function and operate in unison
You can articulate start to finish what role security should play in ideation and build with development teams
You have opinions and options on most of the steps
You are a consummate collaborator, it’s inherent in your work behavior
Ability to understand the tradeoffs between ideal security and what is necessary to appropriately secure a legacy system
You are heavily focused on delivery and being impactful; Understand how to operate and succeed in a very fast-paced environment where the security team should be a partner and enabler for the engineering team rather than a blocker
We lean deeply into individuals who have experience and have practical knowledge of applying standards in low friction ways
Broad scoped projects don’t scare you, they energize you. However, you like to get things done fast (and help others) with limited dependencies

What Helps You Stand Out

Ability to provide technical thought leadership in the application security space.
Strong understanding of risk
Prior hands-on experience building automated solutions specifically in the Vulnerability management space.
You are often viewed as the “expert in the room” for application security space.
Prior experience building and architecting secure solutions
You have experience with security in healthcare or other highly regulated space. Examples: HIPAA, HITRUST, SOC 2, and PCI experience from an operational response standpoint
Deep experiencing representing companies to government agencies for FedRAMP High and Moderate environments
