Cybersecurity Engineer (Medical Device Project – Class II) Part-Time IRC269112

Description

We are developing an innovative medical application classified as a Class II medical device. This project involves a secure, single-application KIOSK mode application running on a Linux tablet, and a complementary Angular web application with a cloud-based backend.

Job Summary:
We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Part-Time Security Engineer(e.g., 15-25 hours/week). The ideal candidate will have a strong background in cybersecurity, specifically within the medical device sector, and a deep understanding of securing Linux-based systems, web applications, cloud environments, and sensitive healthcare data. You will be responsible for reviewing the solution and ensuring strict adherence to FDA, HIPAA, and other relevant medical cybersecurity standards for Class II devices; proposing security improvements; and the security-related documentation on the project. #LI-OK4

Required Skills & Experience:

• 3+ years of experience in cybersecurity, with at least 1-2 years specifically in medical device security or highly regulated industries.
• Proven expertise in Linux operating system security and hardening, especially for embedded or kiosk mode environments.
• In-depth knowledge and practical experience with TPM 2.0 features (e.g., secure boot, measured boot, remote attestation).
• Experience with data encryption at rest and in transit, including database encryption and network communication (TLS/SSL, VPNs).
• Strong understanding of web application security (OWASP Top 10), particularly with Angular applications.
• Hands-on experience with OAuth 2.0 and Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) implementation and best practices.
• Experience securing cloud environments, preferably AWS, including services like IAM, Lambda, S3, RDS, VPC, and security groups.
• Proficiency in security tools for static analysis (SAST), dynamic analysis (DAST), vulnerability scanning, and penetration testing.
• Solid understanding of cryptographic principles, secure key management, and secure random number generation.
• Mandatory experience with FDA cybersecurity guidance for medical devices (e.g., premarket submissions, postmarket management).
• Expertise in HIPAA Security Rule compliance.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to articulate complex security concepts to technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Optional Qualifications:

• Familiarity with PACS server communication and DICOM security considerations.
• Relevant security certifications (e.g., CISSP, CSSLP, CEH, AWS Security Specialty).
• Experience with security aspects of real-time operating systems (RTOS) if applicable.
• Knowledge of common industry standards like ISO 27001, NIST Cybersecurity Framework, and IEC 62304.
• Experience with continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines and integrating security into DevOps workflows (DevSecOps).

Job responsibilities

• Security Architecture & Design:
Contribute to the secure design and architecture assessment of the Linux tablet application (Kiosk mode), including secure boot, Trusted Platform Module (TPM 2.0) integration, and data at rest encryption, secure communication protocols, including PACS server integration (DICOM security).
Advise on the secure implementation of the localhost web server within the tablet application.
Collaborate on the security architecture of the Angular web application, focusing on robust OAuth 2.0 with 2FA implementation.
Ensure the AWS backend infrastructure and encrypted databases are architected with security best practices (e.g., IAM, VPC, security groups).

• Static & Dynamic Analysis:
Oversee static code analysis (SAST) and dynamic application security testing (DAST) for both the Linux and Angular applications.
Conduct vulnerability assessments, penetration testing, and fuzzing to identify and address security weaknesses.

• Compliance & Standards Adherence:
Ensure all application components and processes comply with FDA cybersecurity guidance for medical devices (Class II).
Guarantee full adherence to HIPAA Security Rule for the protection of Protected Health Information (PHI).
Implement controls aligning with other relevant medical device cybersecurity standards (e.g., IEC 62304 for software lifecycle, NIST Cybersecurity Framework, ISO 27001 where applicable).Maintain thorough security documentation for regulatory submissions and audits.

• Threat Modeling & Risk Management:
Participate in threat modeling exercises (e.g., STRIDE) for new and existing features.
Contribute to the ongoing security risk management process throughout the software development lifecycle.

• Secure Development Practices:
Advise development teams on secure coding practices (e.g., OWASP Top 10 for web applications) and cryptographic best practices (e.g., AES key generation and management).

• Incident Response & Monitoring:
Contribute to the development of security incident response plans specific to the medical device context.
Advise on security monitoring and logging strategies.
