System Integration Engineer

About the Opportunity

Join a mission-driven team developing advanced cybersecurity platforms that protect hospitals and clinics from cybersecurity threats. This position will help build Whole-Hospital Simulations (WHS)—realistic testbeds that emulate healthcare environments—and Vulnerability Mitigation Platforms (VMPs) that safeguard medical devices and both clinical and non-clinical networks. The work will directly impact patient safety and digital resilience in some of the most vulnerable healthcare settings.

If successful, your engineering will revolutionize the healthcare pen testing marketplace to shift from compliance-based thinking to “how gracefully does your hospital fail and how quickly recover when under attack” thinking. The platforms will also cause a paradigm shift in the medical device security regulatory frameworks to shift evaluations from component-level thinking of individual medical devices to whole-hospital system thinking of oodles of interacting medical devices and more.

This 100% externally funded position is a hybrid role, combining remote work with required in-person presence, and is reappointed annually based on the continued availability of funding. The position reports to the team’s Technical Lead.

• (30%) Integrate emulators, detection tools, and remediation technologies from multiple technical teams into the Vulnerability Mitigation Platform (VMP), ensuring seamless interoperability and optimal performance within the Whole-Hospital-Simulation (WHS) environments.
• (25%) Design and lead the implementation of Whole-Hospital-Simulation (WHS) environments that emulate hospital operations and support the integration of autonomous detection and remediation tools into the Vulnerability Mitigation Platform (VMP).
• (20%) Design and implement secure, scalable Dev Sec Ops  pipelines that translate complex technical concepts into practical workflows aligned with hospital operations and staff capabilities, while actively engaging with operational hospitals to ensure platform features meet real-world IT and administrative needs through actionable system-level specifications.
• (15%) Facilitate deployment of autonomous vulnerability mitigation tools within WHS environments, ensuring remediations are implemented seamlessly without disrupting hospital operations or compromising patient care.
• (10%) Serve as the lead technical integrator across technical teams, driving interface design and data exchange protocols to ensure cohesive functionality among all component technologies.

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Systems Engineering (Additional training in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, Electrical Engineering, or related fields is a plus).
• CSEP, ESEP, or equivalent systems engineering credential (preferred).
• 5+ years of experience in systems integration across hardware, software, and networked environments, preferably in healthcare IT, cybersecurity frameworks, or critical infrastructure.
• Expertise in digital twin technologies, network emulation, and simulation environments.
• Proficiency in integration testing, requirements validation, and interface definition.
• Experience deploying and integrating AI/ML-driven cybersecurity tools in operational environments.
• Strong understanding of hospital IT systems, legacy equipment, and interoperability challenges.

• Proven ability to design and manage WHS environments for sandbox testing.
• Experience integrating emulators, detection tools, and remediation engines into cohesive platforms.
• Skilled in continuous integration and Dev Sec Ops  practices for secure deployment pipelines.

• Demonstrated success in cross-functional coordination with hospitals, clinicians, and vendors.
• Ability to translate technical requirements into actionable designs for non-technical stakeholders.
• Strong communication skills to liaise between technical teams and hospital operations.
• Experience engaging stakeholders in under-resourced healthcare institutions.

• Background in healthcare cybersecurity, medical device integration, or hospital IT infrastructure.
