About Latent
Latent is the enterprise pharmacy intelligence platform, powered by a clinical agentic engine, that enables health systems to grow their pharmacy operations and serve more patients. One engine works across the pharmacy journey to identify patients who qualify for care, improve medication access, capture eligible prescriptions and support patients throughout treatment. Latent’s platform enables more than 60 leading health systems that collectively serve an estimated 70 million people. Founded by Sriram “Sri” Somasundaram and Rishabh Jain, Latent has raised $80 million from Transformation Capital, Spark Capital, Conviction, General Catalyst, Y Combinator, and others.
The Role
We’re building the intelligence layer of American healthcare. Our systems sit directly in critical workflows and power how clinical AI is delivered and used in practice. You’ll be working on securing all aspects of Latent’s code, cloud, AI, and IT systems. You will be partnering with all Latent employees across engineering, product, legal, and GTM to safely enable Latent employees to move quickly without sacrificing security and compliance.
What You'll Do
You’ll be a Security generalist, helping define, lead, and execute the roadmap in all aspects of Security. Here are some of the areas you will work in:
-
Cloud Security
Mature and harden Latent’s cloud environment from a security and compliance standpoint into a secure-by-default stance so developers can ship code with confidence and the Infrastructure team doesn’t have to worry that their next Terraform apply will put everything on the open internet. -
AI Security
Employees at Latent use a lot of AI. Help us give all of our employees access to the latest and greatest AI-powered tools in a secure and compliant way so our agents don’t run amok and do the wrong thing. -
Data Security
Latent’s business thrives on giving our users deep insights into their patient data, their pharmacy performance, and how our AI is performing. Help us secure our data warehouse so that our internal employees and customers get the insight they need without sacrificing our commitment to patient security and privacy. -
Application and Product Security
Latent’s developers ship a lot of code. Help us come up with ways to automate all aspects of the SDLC from a security perspective to ensure security is built in instead of being a bolt-on afterwards. In addition, as Latent plans the next iteration of its application and agentic platform, help us come up with the right security requirements for new product features and enhancements.
