Full Stack Engineer

About Northeastern

Join a mission-driven team developing advanced cybersecurity platforms that protect hospitals and clinics from cybersecurity threats. This position will help build Whole-Hospital Simulations (WHS)—realistic testbeds that emulate healthcare environments—and Vulnerability Mitigation Platforms (VMPs) that safeguard medical devices and both clinical and non-clinical networks. The work will directly impact patient safety and digital resilience in some of the most vulnerable healthcare settings. If successful, your engineering will revolutionize the healthcare pen testing marketplace to shift from compliance-based thinking to “how gracefully does your hospital fail and how quickly recover when under attack” thinking. The platforms will also cause a paradigm shift in the medical device security regulatory frameworks to shift evaluations from component-level thinking of individual medical devices to whole-hospital system thinking of oodles of interacting medical devices and more.

Job Summary

As a Full Stack Engineer, the position will design and build secure, scalable architectures that power advanced cybersecurity platforms for healthcare.

Key Responsibilities
