Job Description

Are you interested in harnessing technology and AI to transform healthcare? At XiFin , we believe a healthier, more efficient healthcare system starts with strong financial and operational foundations. Our innovative technologies help diagnostic providers, laboratories, and healthcare systems manage complexity, drive better outcomes, and stay focused on what matters most: patient care .

About the Role The Manager, Cybersecurity, is a hands-on SecOps leader responsible for the effectiveness of detection and response across the organization. You will lead a small internal team and manage an outsourced Managed Detection and Response (MDR) provider, ensuring strong operational execution across monitoring, incident response, threat hunting, and security tooling. You will lead vulnerability and exposure management with a SecOps mindset-driving asset visibility and coverage, risk-based prioritization, remediation verification, and risk acceptance (when appropriate) across endpoints, servers, cloud, and SaaS. You will track operational metrics (e.g., MTTA/MTTR, detection coverage, remediation aging), identify gaps, and execute a pragmatic roadmap that strengthens the security program and reduces cyber risk. You will own incident response end-to-end, triage and investigation, containment and eradication, and post-incident reviews ensuring documentation and evidence handling meet compliance requirements. You will coach and mentor the team, run tabletop exercises, maintain runbooks/playbooks, and set clear expectations for alert quality, escalation, and service levels. You will apply AI and automation to improve SecOps outcomes (e.g., faster triage, better context enrichment, and more consistent response) while maintaining appropriate human oversight, validation, and auditability. In partnership with stakeholders, you will help establish monitoring and controls for enterprise AI/LLM usage (approved tools, access, logging, and data handling) to reduce the risk of sensitive-data exposure and shadow AI.
