Entry Level Security Analyst Jobs

About the Opportunity

At Machinify, we're building a robust security program to protect our clients' sensitive healthcare data and maintain the highest standards of information security.

This is an entry-level role suited for someone detail-oriented, hardworking, and intellectually curious. A background in cybersecurity is helpful but not required. We'll consider candidates with experience in business operations, finance, accounting, or related fields who demonstrate strong organizational instincts and a commitment to doing things right.

• Communicate clearly with internal stakeholders and customers throughout the assurance process, setting expectations and providing status updates
• Respond to customer security questionnaires and audit requests with accuracy and timeliness, escalating complex items as appropriate
• Maintain the security documentation repository and ensure materials are current and accessible
• Support customer-facing security calls and presentations alongside senior team members

Audit and Compliance Support (25% of role)

• Assist with HITRUST r2 and SOC 2 audit preparation and evidence collection
• Help coordinate audit activities across internal teams, tracking open items and deadlines
• Support access review processes and other recurring compliance activities

General Security Program Support (15% of role)

• Track and report on security metrics and assurance request status
• Support vendor risk assessment activities

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including comfort communicating with external clients
• Ability to manage multiple concurrent requests and prioritize effectively in a fast-paced environment
• Strong problem-solving orientation; you approach unfamiliar situations with curiosity and good judgment
• Proficiency with productivity and work-tracking tools (ticketing systems, spreadsheets, document management)

Preferred Qualifications

• 1–2 years of experience in operations, compliance, audit support, finance, or a related field
• Exposure to information security concepts, frameworks (NIST, HITRUST, SOC 2), or HIPAA compliance
• Experience in healthcare, healthcare technology, or working with regulated data environments
• Familiarity with GRC or security assurance workflows
