Job Description

Company Overview:
Function Health is the AI operating system for health, designed to empower people to live 100 healthy years. We are redefining how individuals understand, measure, and improve their health by moving beyond reactive care and enabling proactive, data-driven insight into human biology. Function has been recognized as one of Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies of 2024, and is venture-backed by Andreessen Horowitz (a16z). Hundreds of thousands of members have joined Function to take control of their health.

Through advanced diagnostics, deep biomarker testing, longitudinal data, and AI-enabled insights, Function equips members with actionable intelligence to take control of both the quality and length of their lives.
Function recently announced a $298M Series B and is entering its next chapter of growth. As we scale, the quality and durability of our People systems, data, and insights will directly shape our ability to attract, retain, and support exceptional talent.

We are growing our team and seeking out world-class talent that deeply believes in our mission to positively impact global health, has a relentless bias toward action, and a growth mindset. Function fosters a collaborative and dynamic environment where every day we build the future.

Role:
Function Health is building a lean, automation-first compliance program that is agile enough to adapt to both security and privacy requirements. From SOC 2 and HIPAA to CCPA and beyond, the program must be ready to respond to whatever the task demands. This requires an individual who can see the totality of the problem and not just a piece of it.

As a Security Program Manager, you'll support and execute our compliance operations, partner with cross-functional teams to enable compliant product growth and unblock business deals, and help ensure our controls and policies scale with the business.

This role is hands-on and impact-driven: you'll be a key contributor to audit readiness, run day-to-day compliance and privacy operations, and help Function meet the trust expectations of our members, partners, and regulators.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Execute SOC 2 Type II and HIPAA compliance operations, including evidence collection, control testing, and audit readiness.
  • Coordinate audit activities with auditors, external assessors, and internal stakeholders under the direction of compliance leadership.
  • Maintain and update a unified control framework that maps SOC 2, HIPAA, and future frameworks (e.g., HITRUST).
  • Drive vendor and third-party risk management, including onboarding reviews, risk assessments, and BAA/DPA tracking.
  • Understand privacy obligations (HIPAA Privacy Rule, GDPR, state laws) and design solutions with a privacy-first focus.
  • Partner with Sales and Legal to support business deals, including security questionnaires and contractual agreements.
  • Execute quarterly compliance rituals: access reviews, risk register updates, policy acknowledgments, and training compliance.
  • Translate regulatory requirements into engineer-friendly tickets, policy updates, and compliance summaries.
  • Identify and implement opportunities for automation in compliance workflows (evidence collection, access certifications, vendor reviews).
  • Coordinate privacy operations, including data retention, deletion, and handling of member data requests.
  • Build awareness across the business so compliance and privacy are seen as enablers, not blockers.

Qualifications/Skills:
  • 4–7 years of experience in compliance, GRC, or risk management, ideally in SaaS or healthtech.
  • Strong knowledge of SOC 2 and HIPAA; familiarity with privacy frameworks such as GDPR, CCPA/CPRA, or HITRUST.
  • Experience supporting audits end-to-end and preparing documentation for external parties.
  • Experience coordinating across functions (Engineering, IT, Legal, Ops) to implement and sustain controls.
  • Ability to connect regulatory requirements to business context and communicate tradeoffs clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Familiarity with compliance automation tools (Vanta, Tugboat Logic, ConductorOne) and cloud environments (Okta, GCP, GitHub).
  • Strong communication skills; able to draft policies, auditor-facing documentation, and compliance summaries.
  • Ability to work cross-functionally to support secure, compliant patterns without slowing down business goals.
  • Bonus: experience with healthcare data protection or supporting privacy programs in regulated industries.

Your dedication to these responsibilities will directly contribute to the success of our platform and the satisfaction of our users. We are looking for a proactive, skilled, and forward-thinking individual to join our team and help shape the future of our services.

To be a strong fit, you embody our Core Values:
