The role

We are hiring an Information Security Specialist who can balance speed and stability while shipping software used by millions. At $117,000 - $164,000, this Information Security Specialist seat rewards 5+ years in technology with autonomy, mentorship, and a long runway for growth.

Key Responsibilities

  • Work closely with data teams to surface insights from production systems
  • Carry an endlessly-iterating Splunk feature through code freeze without breaking CVS Health stability
  • Optimize application performance, latency, and resource utilization at scale
  • Profile and refactor legacy code to reduce technical debt over time
  • Maintain and improve CI/CD infrastructure across CO engineering teams
  • Keep CVS Health's Data Loss Prevention dependencies patched before the CVEs become incidents
  • Translate warm-yet-rigorous business requirements into technical specifications and tasks
  • Decode the undocumented Public Speaking service nobody at CVS Health remembers writing

What You'll Bring

  • Proven follow-through, measured in shipped things rather than good intentions
  • Working familiarity with hybrid schedules and team norms at CVS Health
  • A portfolio that speaks louder than any line on your resume
  • Ability to learn new technology systems quickly and apply them effectively
  • A point of view, held loosely and defended well
  • Comfort owning technology decisions in a CO market

Everything CVS Health ships starts as a safety-first argument in a Thornton conference room about how Secure Code Review should really work. Mistakes get dissected for lessons at CVS Health, never weaponized in your next review.

Expect a $117,000 - $164,000 base, a growth path with milestones, a mentor who shows up, and benefits that make staying at CVS Health easy.
