About the Role

Neurona is seeking an IT Security Specialist to design and implement robust security controls, manage security platforms, and ensure compliance with GxP and 21 CFR Part 11 regulations. This role involves architecting audit trails, owning vulnerability management, and serving as a technical escalation point for security incidents.

Responsibilities

• Design and configure technical security controls (MFA, EDR, network segmentation) to meet GxP data integrity and 21 CFR Part 11 requirements.
• Architect audit trails for immutable, centralized security logs capable of withstanding regulatory audits.
• Manage vulnerability and patch management end-to-end, including scanning, prioritizing, and remediating vulnerabilities.
• Manage and optimize SIEM, EDR, email security, and identity protection platforms.
• Govern and audit the MSP’s administrative access to Neurona’s network.
• Serve as the advanced technical escalation tier for incidents flagged by the MSP’s Security Operations Center (SOC).
• Act as the internal on-site incident responder, isolating threats and leading technical containment.
• Support disaster recovery planning and business continuity testing.
• Perform security assessments of new technologies, applications, and integrations prior to deployment.
• Standardize secure identity management (IdP) and single sign-on (SSO) integrations across all GxP applications.
• Enforce Privileged Access Management (PAM) and the principle of least privilege.
• Own the provisioning and deprovisioning lifecycle for scalable, auditable identity governance.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Information Security, Computer Science, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
• 3–5+ years of experience in IT security, with direct exposure to regulated environments (GxP, 21 CFR Part 11, HIPAA, or similar).
• Hands-on experience with MFA, EDR, network segmentation, and centralized logging/SIEM platforms.
• Experience managing or auditing MSP/third-party vendor access and supply-chain security risk.
• Strong understanding of IdP/SSO architecture and PAM tools.
• Demonstrated incident response experience, including threat isolation and containment.
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to work cross-functionally and explain technical risk to non-technical stakeholders.
• Familiarity with NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) and Zero Trust architectures.
