Security Engineering Intern (Summer 2019)
The security team at Flatiron Health works every day to protect the company against threats so that our employees can focus on helping to cure cancer. We create attack driven defenses, not compliance. We are always looking for new ways to approach our work and we’ve cultivated a meritocracy where the best ideas rise to the top of the pile. We focus on results and not just debate: in fact we are often architects, designers, and engineers (not just advisors). We build credibility through action and results.
Our culture
We work in a fast-paced, high-information-volume environment with complex domain challenges, which means context is key and there's always more to learn and soak up. We want to know oncology data front to back — better than anyone else in the industry — and we believe accomplishing that requires building a culture where we all like coming to work each day. In our culture, decisions are transparent and data-driven, and people are empowered to make waves.
