• Security & Compliance: This role also serves as our HIPAA Security Officer. You will act as the guardian of our data, implementing robust cybersecurity protocols, business continuity plans, and ensure compliance with HIPAA and other industry standards. You will develop and maintain information security policy frameworks and align with standards such as NIST.
• Team Development: Lead, mentor, and grow a team of IT professionals, fostering a culture of continuous learning and proactive problem-solving.
• Vendor Management: Negotiate and manage both relationships and contracts with third-party service providers and various hardware and software vendors.
