Job Summary

The Cybersecurity Engineer II will serve as a hands-on technical leader responsible for designing, implementing, and maintaining advanced cybersecurity solutions within the Wisconsin Health Data Hub (WHDH). WHDH is a federally funded initiative developing a secure, cloud-native data platform to enable biomedical research, real-world data analytics, and AI-driven discovery.

This role bridges security strategy and engineering execution by translating modern cybersecurity practices—including cloud security, identity and access management, threat detection, vulnerability management, and data protection—into scalable, production-ready controls.

Key Responsibilities

Security Architecture & Engineering

Design and implement security controls across WHDH cloud infrastructure, applications, data platforms, and network environments.
Build secure-by-design architectures for data ingestion, storage, analytics, and AI workloads.

Monitoring, Detection & Incident Response

Implement and maintain security monitoring tools, logging pipelines, and alerting capabilities across the WHDH environment.

Cloud & Platform Security Operations

Secure cloud-native environments including compute, storage, networking, and containerized workloads.

Governance, Risk & Compliance

Ensure platform operations align with institutional security policies, research data governance requirements, and healthcare privacy standards.

Collaboration & Security Enablement

Partner with data engineers, data scientists, and software engineers to implement secure solutions without impeding innovation.
