About the role

  • About NewLimit NewLimit is a biotechnology company working to radically extend human healthspan.
  • We leverage functional genomics, pooled perturbation screening, and machine learning models to unravel the biology of epigenetic aging and disease using experiments of unprecedented scale.

Responsibilities

  • Own identity and access end to end, with least-privilege administration, phishing-resistant authentication, and SSO across our core applications.
  • Own and scale security operations, from monitoring, detection, alerting, and response coordination to post-incident reporting and tabletop readiness, using MSP, MDR, or IR partners where they add leverage.
  • Own the secure operational backbone across corporate, lab, and cloud environments: integrations, data transfers, vendor-managed systems, backup, recovery, continuity, and reliable access.
  • Build internal tooling and automation for onboarding, access reviews, security reporting, and agent/LLM governance, including scoped credentials, sandboxed execution, and audit logging.
  • We're developing medicines to treat age-related diseases by reprogramming the epigenome, a new therapeutic mechanism to restore regenerative potential in aged and diseased cells.
  • We're hiring our first dedicated Security & Infrastructure Engineer to build and own the security, infrastructure, and internal systems foundation for a clinical-stage biotech entering its first-in-human program.

Requirements

  • Experience supporting technical, scientific, or laboratory environments where vendor-managed systems, instruments, and uptime matter, and managing MSPs and vendors directly.
  • A track record of right-sizing controls to company stage, with the judgment and presence to communicate clearly with scientists, operators, executives, vendors, auditors, and sponsors.
  • Experience supporting GxP, clinical, or other regulated environments, or hands-on readiness work for SOC 2, ISO 27001, or sponsor and clinical-trial audits.
  • Familiarity with data-integrity expectations such as audit trails and ALCOA+ for regulated data handoffs.

Nice to have

  • The scope is broad and high-impact.
  • As our clinical and manufacturing partnerships expand, strong access control, audit logging, vendor oversight, and incident readiness become increasingly essential.
  • We want a builder, not a ticket-router.
  • The best version of this person uses automation and AI agents to amplify their impact.
  • Where a SaaS tool or a consultant is the faster, cheaper path, you make that call, and a managed service provider already handles helpdesk and on/offboarding so your time goes to high-leverage work.
  • You also won't be doing this on an island.
