Position Summary & Responsibilities

Virta Health is pioneering a new standard of care for people to reclaim their lives. We are in the midst of a public health crisis: obesity rates are at an all-time high and over half of US adults have type 2 diabetes or prediabetes, and despite billions spent on new treatments, outcomes are largely worse. Virta reverses these diseases and delivers life-changing results by pairing individualized nutrition with ongoing care from a clinical support team. We have raised over $350 million from top-tier investors, and partner with the largest health plans, employers, and government organizations to help their employees and members restore their health and take back their lives.

As we rapidly scale our impact, we're seeking a passionate DevSecOps engineer to help build and mature our application security program. Working closely with our security lead, you'll implement best practices and help embed security principles across the org. If you thrive on building secure systems, automation, fostering a security-conscious culture, and making a tangible difference in protecting sensitive health information, this role is for you.

  • Champion Secure Development: Partner closely with Engineering, Product, and Platform teams to integrate security best practices early and often ("shift-left") into the software development lifecycle.

  • Build and Automate: Design, implement, and manage security tooling and automation to streamline vulnerability detection, remediation, and compliance verification. Replace manual processes with efficient, automated solutions.

  • Refine Access Control: Evolve our identity and access management (IAM) strategy, ensuring least-privilege access an
