System Integration Engineer
About the Opportunity
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.
- Works closely with WHS development teams, hospital IT partners, multiple technical teams, external vendors, federal program partners, and cybersecurity R&D teams.
- May supervise junior engineers or subcontractors involved in WHS setup and integration tasks.
Applicants must be authorized to work in the United States. The University is unable to work sponsor for this role, now or in the future.
Key Responsibilities & Accountabilities:
multiple technical teams into the Vulnerability Mitigation Platform (VMP),
ensuring seamless interoperability and optimal performance within the
Whole-Hospital-Simulation (WHS) environments.
environments that emulate hospital operations and support the integration
of autonomous detection and remediation tools into the Vulnerability
Mitigation Platform (VMP).
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.
WHS environments, ensuring remediations are implemented seamlessly
without disrupting hospital operations or compromising patient care.
interface design and data exchange protocols to ensure cohesive
functionality among all component technologies.
Core
Qualifications:
