This role establishes the testing methodology, scoping standards, and engagement model that embed Secure by Design verification into the product development lifecycle — spanning medical devices, embedded firmware, mobile applications, APIs, and supporting cloud services. The Program Lead manages internal testers and third-party assessment partners, translates technical findings into patient safety and business risk, and drives remediation to closure with R&D and engineering teams. Applying advanced technical skills and industry-leading practices, this role serves as the authoritative voice on product security testing across the enterprise. Key Responsibilities Own the end-to-end penetration testing services program for products and connected platforms, including the annual testing roadmap, prioritization model, and capacity planning across internal and external resources. Define and maintain the penetration testing methodology, scoping standards, rules of engagement, and reporting templates aligned to industry frameworks (OWASP, PTES, NIST SP 800-115, MITRE ATT&CK). Embed security testing gates into the product development lifecycle, ensuring Secure by Design verification occurs at defined design, integration, and pre-release milestones. Execute and oversee hands-on assessments across medical devices, embedded firmware, wireless protocols, mobile applications, web applications, APIs, and cloud infrastructure. Manage third-party penetration testing vendors — including scoping, statement of work development, quality review of deliverables, and performance management against SLAs. Triage and validate findings, assess exploitability, and evaluate patient safety and clinical impact in partnership with Product Security, Quality, and Regulatory stakeholders. Drive remediation with R&D and engineering teams, tracking findings through retest and verified closure, and escalating overdue or elevated risks through governance channels. Conduct threat modeling and attack surface analysis to inform test scoping and identify high-value targets prior to engagement. Support regulatory and customer requirements by producing testing evidence for FDA premarket submissions, EU MDR technical files, and hospital security assessments. Contribute penetration testing results and residual risk analysis into product security risk files aligned to AAMI TIR57 and ISO 14971. Build and report program metrics — test coverage across the portfolio, finding severity distribution, remediation aging, and retest pass rates — to leadership and product stakeholders. Research emerging attack techniques, medical device vulnerabilities, and tooling; continuously evolve the testing capability and develop custom tooling and exploits where needed. Assess the testing implications of platform migrations, supplier changes, and separation/carve-out activity affecting the product portfolio and supporting infrastructure. Deliver technical enablement and secure development training to engineering teams, using real findings to strengthen security ownership and cyber culture. Qualifications Education Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, Software/Electrical/ Biomedical Engineering, Information Systems, or a related technical discipline. Advanced degree or specialized cybersecurity education (preferred). Experience and Skills Required: Minimum 6 years of progressive experience in penetration testing, offensive security, red teaming, or application security assessment.

Working knowledge of common testing tools and frameworks (Burp Suite, Metasploit, Nmap, Wireshark, Ghidra/IDA, Kali) and scripting proficiency (Python, Bash, PowerShell). Strong understanding of vulnerability classes and taxonomies (OWASP Top 10, CWE) and risk scoring methodologies (CVSS). Experience embedding security testing into an SDLC and driving remediation with engineering teams through verified closure. Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with proven ability to translate technical exploitation detail into business and patient safety risk for non-technical audiences.
