Summary

Job Title: Senior/Staff Backend Engineer, HIPAA Compliance (Non-Healthcare Product Experience)
Location: Mountain View, CA, onsite 3 days a week
What you'll do
  • Assess the existing platform and identify where regulated data flows, is stored, and is exposed across services.
  • Design and implement encryption at rest and in transit, access controls, audit logging, and data-handling changes at the database and service level.
  • Work through multiple services and platforms to bring each into compliance, not just one.
  • Define a remediation approach for legacy customer data that was added before the compliance changes, so previously stored data is cleaned up and protected.
  • Translate HIPAA requirements into practical engineering standards, and help create the SOPs and documentation that a non-medical company doesn't already have in place.
  • Partner closely with a small team and work independently, with little hand-holding.
What we're looking for:
  • Senior, Senior Staff or Architect-level backend engineer, hands-on at the database and systems level.
  • Direct experience making a non-healthcare product or platform HIPAA compliant. This is the key requirement. Experience at a healthcare organization where compliance programs and SOPs already exist is not the same thing.
  • Strong understanding of what HIPAA requires of a product (PHI handling, technical safeguards, encryption, access and audit controls, breach and retention considerations).
  • Deep backend skills: data stores, service architecture, data migration and remediation at scale.
  • Experience in multi-service SaaS, ERP, accounting, payroll, HR or similar business-software environments (for example, NetSuite-type platforms).
  • Comfortable ramping quickly from documentation and self-directed learning.
Nice to have:
  • Experience with financial or accounting software.
  • Experience remediating or encrypting legacy data in place.
  • Experience with a company-level HIPAA program or certification effort.
