Job Summary: The IT / Security Operations Analyst owns the operational engine of security, compliance, and IT at Qualified Health.

This is a foundational role in a rapidly growing company. We handle protected health information for 15+ major health systems, and the security operational work is real, growing, and critically important. Today, some of it is being absorbed by our data integration team — people who should be deploying AI workflows, not resetting passwords and reviewing vendor SOC 2 reports. You'll take that operational burden off their plate and give it the dedicated attention it deserves. You'll work alongside the Director of Security & Compliance and a security engineer, forming a team that owns the company's entire security and IT operations posture. Key Responsibilities: - Manage vendor security intakes and assessments — evaluating new vendors against our security requirements and maintaining the vendor inventory - Administer IAM (identity and access management) across company systems — user provisioning, access reviews, role management - Manage device enrollment, MDM policies, and endpoint compliance - Coordinate with our outsourced IT support vendor for employee onboarding/offboarding and support escalations - Support ongoing HITRUST compliance maintenance and evidence collection - Complete client security questionnaire responses — lifting this from the integration team - Maintain security documentation, policies, and procedures - Support security scan report preparation and remediation tracking Required Qualifications: - 3-5 years in IT operations, security operations, or GRC roles - Experience with IAM platforms (Okta, Azure AD/Entra, or similar) - Familiarity with MDM solutions and endpoint management - Understanding of compliance frameworks (HITRUST, SOC 2, HIPAA) - Bachelor's degree in Information Technology, Cybersecurity, Computer Science or a related field Desirable Skills: - Vendor management experience — assessing third-party security posture and managing remediation - Healthcare industry experience — understanding of HIPAA requirements and health system security expectations - Experience with compliance automation tools (Vanta, Drata, or similar) - Background managing outsourced IT support relationships - Experience at a fast-growing startup where operational processes were being built alongside daily execution - Organizational Mastery: You manage dozens of concurrent operational tasks — vendor reviews, access requests, device enrollments, questionnaire responses — without dropping any of them - Documentation Rigor: You keep processes documented, evidence organized, and compliance records audit-ready at all times - Responsiveness: When someone needs access provisioned, a vendor reviewed, or a security questionnaire completed, you handle it promptly and accurately - Process Improvement: You don't just run the operational playbook — you improve it. You look for ways to automate, streamline, and reduce manual effort - Discretion: You handle sensitive information (access credentials, security findings, vendor assessments) with the appropriate level of confidentiality and professionalism Technical Environment: You'll work with healthcare data from diverse sources including: - Epic (Clarity, Chronicles, FHIR APIs) - Cerner, AllScripts, and other major EHR platforms - Claims data (CMS, commercial payers) - Clinical registries and specialty systems - FHIR R4 and legacy HL7 formats Why Join Qualified Health? This is an opportunity to join a fast-growing company and a world-class team, that is poised to change the healthcare industry. We are a passionate, mission-driven team that is building a category-defining product. We are backed by premier investors and are looking for founding team members who are excited to do the best work of their careers.
