Surescripts embraces flexibility through its Flexible Hybrid Work model for most positions. This model allows employees to work virtually while still utilizing our offices as collaboration centers. With alignment and agreement from your leadership, you can come and go from the office as needed.

To be considered for employment, applicants must have a valid U.S. work authorization allowing work without restrictions with Surecripts in the U.S. At this time, we are unable to provide support or provide sponsorship for immigration benefits such as work visas. Additionally, we do not participate in academic training programs or work-study programs through an academic institution that require employer endorsement of F-1/CPT or F-1/STEM.

What You're Like

You're technical. Analytical. Imaginative. Maybe you're building your own crypto-mining rig-or not. Either way, your mind works to anticipate vulnerabilities and protect the company and its information against those vulnerabilities. You do the right thing because it's the right thing without seeking to point fingers or brag. And of course, you're always willing to keep learning.

What We're Like

We're a team of friendly folks who do serious work. Our best work is done by rising to the occasion under stress, but we keep each other cool under pressure. We're a tight team but we also look for ways to partner across the business. Our style is casual and laid back, but we shoulder our responsibility to protect patient data from sophisticated adversaries, which sometimes means delivering a difficult truth.

What the Work is Like

Our challenge is to protect our customers' data and our company. This requires anomaly analysis, risk reviews, pen testing of our controls, red-teaming and tabletops, policy and procedure work, documentation, and audits. We also engineer and maintain our security products and tools. It's not always a typical 9-to-5 gig, of course, but then again, you work in information security, so you already know that.

Why Wait? Apply Now

We're a midsize company. This means you're not just another employee ID number. Here, you can build real relationships and feel supported by truly awesome people with diverse backgrounds and talents in an innovative and collaborative work culture. We strive to create an environment where you can be yourself, share your ideas and work your way. We offer opportunities for employee development, as well as competitive compensation packages and extensive benefits.

At Surescripts, base pay is one part of our Total Rewards Package (which may also include bonus, benefits etc.) and is determined within a range. The base pay range for this position is $98,400 - $120,200 per year. Your base pay may vary within or outside of this range depending on a number of factors, including (but not limited to) your qualifications, skills, experience, and location.

Benefits include, but are not limited to, comprehensive healthcare (including infertility coverage), generous paid time off including paid childbirth and parental leave and mental health days, pet insurance, and 401(k) with company match and immediate vesting.
