Get Access To All JobsJob Title: Head of Security
We're hiring a Head of Security to own our security program. This is a high-ownership, hands-on role: you'll be responsible for identifying the highest leverage ways to improve the company’s security posture and then build and personally execute that roadmap. You'll run the operational core of security, including risk assessments, audits, incident response, and policy questions, while working both with our MSP and across the org to identify and execute. You'll also be responsible for supporting portions of our compliance efforts, including SOC 2 and HITRUST, as we continue building out compliance more broadly.
Our Mission: Hospital-Quality Care, Everywhere. The healthcare industry still relies on faxes and phone tags to coordinate critical care for patients at home. We think patients and the clinicians who serve them deserve better than a system stuck in 1995. Verse Medical is building the modern software infrastructure to make it happen. We're a well-funded Series C company (backed by General Catalyst, SignalFire, and Sapphire Ventures) on a mission to heal a fragmented system. Our platform connects the dots between providers, payors, and patients, ensuring people get the high-quality care they need, reliably and right where they live. We’re growing fast and looking for people who are driven by this mission to join us!
Our Values: The Principles That Guide Us
Our values are the operating system for how we work together and with our partners. They aren't just words on a wall; they are the principles we bring to every decision, every day.
We are transparent, upfront and direct. We operate with honesty and clarity. We share information openly, the good and the bad, and believe that direct, respectful feedback is the foundation of trust and progress.
We value speed of iteration. We are building something new, which means we learn by doing. We prioritize rapid iteration and getting solutions into the hands of users, believing that progress is more valuable than perfection.
We give 110% effort, 30% of the time. We are passionate about our mission, and there are moments that require us to go the extra mile. We believe in focused intensity when it counts, balanced by a sustainable pace that keeps our team energized for the long run.
We empathize with customers to a fault. When our users face a problem, we own it. Instead of asking them to change, we ask ourselves, "How can we make this better?" We believe true innovation comes from deep empathy and a relentless focus on solving the real-world challenges of healthcare.
What You'll Achieve: A Glimpse into Your Contributions
Own our security program and serve as the senior-most security voice in the company, advising leadership on risk posture and tradeoffs
Identify gaps against our target security posture and build a roadmap to close them; personally execute that roadmap rather than delegating it
Run core security procedures: risk assessments, access and policy questions ("is this allowed"), audits, and incident response when issues arise
Partner with our MSP and stakeholders across engineering and the business to improve our overall security posture
Support and help run portions of our compliance program, including SOC 2 and HITRUST
Build a small security team over time, starting hands-on and hiring as the workload requires it
What You'll Bring: The Skills and Experience You'll Leverage
We believe that diverse experiences and backgrounds lead to better solutions. While we have an idea of what will help someone succeed in this role, we are open to being convinced by your unique story and skills. If you believe you can achieve the outcomes above, we encourage you to apply.
Core Skills & Experience:
8+ years in security or information security, including direct ownership of a security program at a startup or growth-stage company
Experience running the operational mechanics of security: risk assessments, audits, access reviews, and incident response from detection through remediation
Working knowledge of HIPAA, HITRUST, and/or SOC 2 control frameworks, enough to support and operate controls
Experience with MSP relationships and cross-functional work with engineering to close security gaps
Comfort operating without a team initially: hands-on-keyboard, building the function before hiring into it
Strong communication skills, able to give clear, practical answers on what is and isn't permitted, and to represent our posture to auditors and enterprise customers, in addition to advising leadership on risk and strategy
Benefits:
Competitive compensation.
Opportunities for rapid career advancement in a growing company.
100% premium coverage for health insurance.
401(k) with no matching at this time.
This is a hybrid role based in our New York office and will require you to be in the office 4x in a week.

At Verse Medical, our mission is to deliver equitable, hospital-quality care to everyone, regardless of their background or where they live. We can only achieve this if our own team reflects the diversity of the patients we serve.

We embrace diversity of all kinds: race, gender, age, religion, identity, experience. We are actively working to build a more inclusive and equitable world, starting from within our own walls. We are an equal opportunity employer. We are also committed to providing a positive and accessible interview experience.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Green Card Sponsorship in Head of Security
Document your security credentials strategically
Gather certifications like CPP, CISSP, or PSP alongside performance reviews that show progressive leadership responsibility. USCIS and DOL both scrutinize whether your background genuinely requires the advanced degree or experience your EB-2 or EB-3 category claims.
Use O*NET to anchor your job description
Pull the O*NET occupation profile for Security Managers before your employer drafts the PERM job description. Matching duties and minimum requirements to O*NET language reduces DOL audit risk and strengthens the prevailing-wage determination at the outset.
Find sponsors through Migrate Mate
Search Migrate Mate for employers with verified green card sponsorship history in security and facilities management roles. Targeting companies that have already completed PERM filings shortens your path to an offer and signals realistic sponsorship intent from the first conversation.
Verify prevailing wage before accepting an offer
Run your target title and location through the OFLC Wage Search to confirm the prevailing wage level before negotiations. Employers must pay at least the certified prevailing wage throughout the PERM and green card process, so offers below that threshold stall sponsorship.
Prepare for PERM's mandatory recruitment test
DOL requires employers to run a genuine recruitment campaign before certifying PERM, including newspaper ads, job postings, and internal notices. If qualified U.S. workers apply, the employer must document why they were not hired, so your credentials must clearly exceed minimum requirements.
Protect your priority date if you change employers
Once your original I-140 is approved, your priority date can carry over to a new employer's I-140 in the same occupational category. If your I-485 has been pending 180 days or more, AC21 portability also lets you move to a substantially similar role without restarting the process.
Green Card Head of Security: Frequently Asked Questions
Can a foreign national get green card sponsorship for a Head of Security role?
Yes. Employers can sponsor Head of Security candidates through the EB-2 or EB-3 employment-based categories. EB-2 applies if the role requires an advanced degree or a bachelor's degree plus five years of progressive experience. EB-3 covers roles requiring a bachelor's degree or at least two years of skilled experience. Both require PERM labor certification filed with DOL before the I-140 petition.
How does green card sponsorship for this role differ from H-1B sponsorship?
Green card sponsorship leads to permanent residence rather than a temporary work status. It requires PERM labor certification, which involves a prevailing-wage determination and a mandatory DOL recruitment test to demonstrate no qualified U.S. workers were available. H-1B visa sponsorship requires a Labor Condition Application instead and is capped at three years initially. Green card priority dates can also create multi-year waits for nationals of high-demand countries like India and China.
What does the PERM process involve for a Head of Security position?
PERM requires the employer to obtain a prevailing-wage determination from DOL, conduct a formal recruitment campaign, and document that no qualified U.S. workers were displaced. For security leadership roles, the job description must clearly specify the minimum requirements tied to the EB-2 or EB-3 category being used. Only after DOL certifies the PERM can the employer file the I-140 immigrant petition with USCIS.
Where can I find employers who sponsor green cards for Head of Security jobs?
Migrate Mate lists employers with verified green card sponsorship history in security and related fields, letting you focus your search on companies that have already navigated the PERM and I-140 process. Targeting these employers early avoids spending months on outreach to companies with no prior sponsorship experience or intent.
What happens to my green card case if I change employers mid-process?
If your I-140 has been approved, your priority date can carry over to a new employer's I-140 in the same or a similar occupational category, so you don't lose your place in the queue. If your I-485 adjustment of status has been pending for 180 days or more, AC21 portability allows you to move to a substantially similar role without restarting PERM. Both protections require the new role to align closely with your original approved position.
