Healthcare needs a better rhythm: one that keeps care continuous and deeply human. Heidi is building an AI Care Partner that works alongside clinicians to make that possible.
We’re a team of doctors, engineers, designers, researchers, and creatives building tools that help clinicians stay focused on what matters most: their patients.
In just 18 months, Heidi has given back more than 18 million hours to healthcare professionals — supporting 73 million patient visits in 116 countries. Today, more than two million patient visits each week are powered by Heidi worldwide.
Backed by nearly $100 million in funding, we’re growing in the US, UK, Canada, and Europe, partnering with leading health systems including the NHS, Beth Israel Lahey Health, and Monash Health.
About the Role
We're building security systems for medical technology that handles sensitive data and supports critical healthcare decisions. Security and data protection are core to what we build.
In this role you'll work across cloud and platform foundations to make secure-by-default infrastructure the easiest path for engineers.
Design and implement identity, network, and platform controls that reduce risk while keeping delivery fast
Build scalable security guardrails for infrastructure changes through infrastructure-as-code and delivery pipelines (policy checks, safe defaults, automated verification)
Improve service-to-service security patterns (workload identity, service authentication, secrets usage) in partnership with platform and application teams
Strengthen data and storage controls (encryption, key management, backup and recovery security, database hardening)
Reduce infrastructure attack vectors through hardening, configuration baselines, and continuous posture assessment
Improve supply chain integrity for infrastructure artefacts (build provenance, dependency and image integrity, SBOMs)
Contribute to the wider security program by turning requirements into platform capabilities and paved paths that teams can adopt with minimal friction
We're looking for senior/staff-level capability, expressed as autonomy, depth, and ability to scale impact.
Comfortable owning ambiguous problems end-to-end, from threat modelling to design to implementation to rollout
Strong domain understanding of cloud, identity, and networking fundamentals and how they fail in practice
Able to build durable systems: automated controls, paved paths, and reliable feedback loops
Works independently with stakeholders, aligns on trade-offs, and drives decisions without needing constant direction
Raises the bar for engineering teams by teaching patterns, writing clear docs, and improving defaults
Our Approach to Security
We build security into how we work through automation, practical controls, and clear communication. We aim for secure defaults and guardrails that help teams make good choices without unnecessary friction.
Note on Requirements
We care more about skills, approach, and ability to learn than specific certifications or industry background. If you have strong security domain knowledge and the specialised skills for this role, we'd love to hear from you.
