Description For Software Engineer - Security

McKesson, a Fortune 10 healthcare company, is seeking a Senior Software Engineer for their Product Security team at CoverMyMeds. This role focuses on building innovative tools that enhance security and audit processes across their product ecosystem.

The position offers a unique opportunity for engineers who enjoy making meaningful impact without the pressure of rapid release cycles. You'll be responsible for designing and developing secure, scalable software tools that reduce risk and improve team productivity. Key responsibilities include investigating software issues, writing and debugging code, leading peer reviews, and ensuring software quality through best practices.

The role requires strong expertise in web-based software development, with experience in languages like Ruby, Python, PHP, or JavaScript. You'll work closely with Product Security, SRE, and Engineering teams to deliver integrated solutions. The position involves security vulnerability remediation, risk assessments, and mentoring junior developers.

McKesson offers a competitive compensation package ($116,300 - $193,800) plus benefits including annual bonus and long-term incentive opportunities. The company fosters a culture of growth, impact, and innovation, where employees can shape the future of healthcare.

This hybrid position is based in Columbus, OH, allowing for remote work flexibility while maintaining connection with the local team. The role requires 7+ years of relevant experience and deep knowledge of secure coding practices, testing methodologies, and version control.

At McKesson, you'll be part of a mission-driven organization that touches virtually every aspect of healthcare, making quality care more accessible and affordable. The company values diversity, inclusion, and the well-being of both employees and the communities they serve.

The ideal candidate will have experience with performance monitoring, observability, and secure coding standards. Background in regulated industries (healthcare, finance, insurance) and familiarity with security frameworks (OWASP ASVS, NIST, PCI-DSS) are preferred. Strong communication and mentoring skills are essential for success in this collaborative environment.
