How you can make a difference

The Manager, Cyber Defense & SaaS Security is a hands-on, technical role split between owning the SaaS Security function end-to-end (75%) and serving as the onsite Cyber Defense representative supporting the Security Operations Center (SOC) floor (25%). In the SaaS Security capacity, this role is the primary owner of SaaS-related tooling, risk, threats, gaps, and detections, partnering across Cyber Defense and other lanes of the business to secure Health Equity's SaaS footprint end to end.

In the onsite capacity, this role provides in-person Cyber Defense presence during core business hours, running the SOC floor and enabling timely, in-person coordination on real-time security and operational issues. This role requires strong hands-on technical depth in SaaS security balanced with the presence and judgment to be a trusted point of contact for real-time coordination on the floor.

• Build and tune detections for SaaS-based attack techniques (e.g., OAuth abuse, token theft, suspicious admin activity, anomalous data movement) in partnership with Threat Detection and Threat Hunting.
• Partner with IT, Procurement, GRC, Engineering, and business application owners to embed security requirements into SaaS onboarding, configuration, and lifecycle management.
• Maintain an accurate inventory and risk register of SaaS applications in use across the organization, including unsanctioned or unmanaged SaaS discovered through monitoring.
• Report on SaaS security posture, risk trends, and program maturity to Cyber Defense leadership.
• Represent SaaS Security in cross-functional security initiatives, audits, and vendor risk assessments as needed.

• Act as a visible, accessible point of contact for the SOC team and other onsite stakeholders needing rapid Cyber Defense input or triage support.
• Help maintain day-to-day SOC floor operational rhythm, flagging emerging issues or coordination gaps to the appropriate team leads.
