About The Position

The Manager, Product & Platform Cybersecurity Engineering leads the strategy, development, and implementation of a unified cybersecurity framework for medical devices, data‑handling systems, and connected services across multiple business units. You will establish product security baselines, determine applicability of NIST SP 800‑53 controls, and oversee a team responsible for control mapping, verification, and evidence generation throughout the software development life cycle. You will operationalize NIST CSF 2.0 and embed NIST SP 800‑218 secure‑by‑design practices into engineering pipelines to elevate product security maturity and improve release quality. You will partner closely with the Product Regulatory Cybersecurity and Quality/Regulatory teams to ensure compliance with healthcare and medtech premarket and postmarket requirements, including FD&C §524B and industry standards such as IEC 81001‑5‑1 and ISO/IEC 27001:2022. You will serve as both a strategic leader and hands‑on expert—translating cybersecurity risks into backlog priorities, guiding engineering teams through secure design and verification, advising leaders on practical risk remediation and compensating controls, and defining enterprise requirements for secure development infrastructure and product operations.
