Job description

Garner’s mission is to transform the healthcare economy, delivering high-quality and affordable care for all. 

We are fundamentally reimagining how healthcare works in the U.S. by partnering with employers to redesign healthcare benefits using clear incentives and powerful, data-driven insights. Our approach guides employees to higher-quality, lower-cost care, creating a system that works better for everyone. Patients achieve better health outcomes, employers spend healthcare dollars more effectively, and physicians are rewarded for delivering exceptional care rather than performing more procedures. 

Garner is one of the fastest-growing healthcare technology companies in the country. Our products are trusted by the most sophisticated employers and providers in the industry, and we are building a team of talented, mission-driven individuals who are motivated to make a meaningful impact on healthcare at scale.

About the role:

We are seeking an exceptional Security Engineering Manager to join our Engineering team. This role will report to the VP of Security (or designated Engineering Leader). As we enter our next phase of scale, you will be the primary architect of our security strategy, ensuring that our data-driven insights are protected by a world-class security posture that meets the rigorous demands of the healthcare economy.

Where you will work:

Garner is headquartered in NYC, but this position is available for individuals who are comfortable with remote work and occasional travel to HQ.

What you will do:

  • Lead the delivery of critical security initiatives, ensuring team-level dependencies are met and our infrastructure remains resilient against evolving threats
  • Own and drive the security roadmap associated with at least one Engineering Objective and Key Result (EOKR) annually to protect patient and employer data
  • Create and maintain Technical Roadmaps (TTSRs) for the security domain, identifying and closing gaps in data or metrics required for strategic defense
  • Proactively oversee technical execution across the engineering organization, identifying systemic security risks before they manifest as vulnerabilities
  • Design and implement scalable security systems, serving as the ultimate Subject Matter Expert for in-depth technical inquiries and incident response
  • Scale the security organization by improving technical interview loops and training engineers to maintain Garner’s high bar for technical excellence
  • Manage and resolve complex, cross-organizational security issues

The ideal candidate has:

  • Management Expertise: Mastery of one or more technical security domains (AppSec, Cloud Security, or IAM) with the ability to communicate that vision to the engineers that you have direct and indirect authority with to secure Garner’s long-term technical strategy
  • People Skills: Attract amazing colleagues and build a team environment that sees good engineers evolve into great ones; develop the technical and non-technical competencies of your peers to foster a team environment that reinforces Garner’s values
  • Analysis & Innovation: Possess the ability to translate ambiguous and complex security requirements into well-defined objectives and high-impact deliverables
  • Reliability & Impact: A proven track record of independently estimating, planning, and executing multi-quarter security projects that significantly reduce company-level risk
  • Stakeholder Relations: Expertly provides high-quality feedback in technical design reviews, consistently setting the bar for scalability, security, and maintainability across the team
  • Efficiency: Experience creating effective workflows, standards, and training modules that increase the collective security intelligence of the entire engineering organization
  • Strategic Thinking: The capacity to evaluate and synthesize security information to generate insights that drive both the security team and Garner forward
  • Garner DNA: A desire to be a part of a high-performing, mission-driven team that operates with intense urgency, a strong sense of individual accountability, and a commitment to authentic feedback

Technologies we use: 

  • Python, Kubernetes, Snowflake, AWS, Terraform, Wiz, Cyberhaven

This is a unique opportunity to join a fast-growing company in a transformative role, helping shape the future of healthcare.
