Senior Manager, Cybersecurity

At Novocure, every role contributes to extending the lives of people living with cancer. As our new Senior Manager, Cybersecurity, you'll play a key part in this mission.

This role is responsible for leading and advancing Novocure's global medical product cybersecurity program. You will design, coordinate, and execute cybersecurity activities that ensure our medical devices and digital health products remain secure, compliant, and resilient throughout their lifecycle.

This is a cross-functional leadership role partnering closely with Quality, Regulatory, R&D, Engineering, Product Development, and Infrastructure teams across the U.S., Israel, and Europe. Your work will directly support regulatory filings, product innovation, and patient safety by embedding security into the foundation of our products.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

As Senior Manager, Cybersecurity, you will operate as both a strategic leader and hands-on expert, bringing structure, clarity, and forward momentum to our product security environment.

• Lead the execution and continuous improvement of Novocure's global medical product cybersecurity program, ensuring alignment with FDA premarket and postmarket guidance, ISO 27001, IEC 62304/82304, ISO 13485, IEC 81001-5-1, EU MDR, NIST frameworks, and other applicable standards.
• Develop, implement, and mature Secure Product Development Framework (SPDF) practices across medical devices and digital health products, embedding security-by-design and secure-in-depth principles throughout the product lifecycle.
• Partner closely with R&D, Engineering, Product Development, Quality, and Regulatory to integrate secure software delivery lifecycle practices, including threat modeling, secure architecture and design reviews, SAST/DAST tooling, vulnerability management, and mitigation planning.
• Assess product vulnerabilities, evaluate risk levels, and provide clear, actionable recommendations to development teams, enabling informed risk-based decision-making and timely remediation.
• Own and maintain comprehensive cybersecurity documentation to support regulatory submissions, audits, and inspections, ensuring readiness for FDA and international regulatory engagements.
• Coordinate cybersecurity activities between corporate IT security and product security functions, ensuring alignment while maintaining a strong product-focused security posture.
• Track and communicate cybersecurity KPIs, risk metrics, and program status to senior leadership, translating complex technical topics into clear business and regulatory impact.
• Contribute fresh perspective to the evolving product environment-proactively identifying areas for improvement, strengthening controls, and elevating overall product cybersecurity maturity.

ABOUT YOU

You are a structured thinker, a collaborative bridge-builder, and a mission-driven leader who thrives in regulated environments. You bring deep expertise in application and product security, and you are comfortable operating with high autonomy-assessing what needs to be done, prioritizing critical risks, and driving impact without waiting for direction.

Minimum Requirement:

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, Engineering, or a related technical discipline.
• Minimum of 7-10 years of cybersecurity experience, including 3+ years in a leadership or program management capacity.
• At least four years of experience in a similar position within the medical device, healthcare technology, pharmaceutical, or other highly regulated industry.
• Demonstrated experience working in regulated environments, with strong knowledge of FDA cybersecurity guidance, ISO 13485, IEC 62304/82304, IEC 81001-5-1, EU MDR, and NIST CSF frameworks.
• Proven experience in product lifecycle security, secure application development, secure architecture and testing (e.g., SAST, DAST), threat modeling, attack surface reduction, and vulnerability tracking and mitigation.

These additional qualifications are preferred:

• Experience supporting cybersecurity components of regulatory submissions or direct engagement with FDA or international regulatory authorities.
• Background in connected medical devices or digital health products.
• Experience collaborating across global teams in the U.S., Israel, and Europe.
• Strong stakeholder management skills with the ability to influence without authority and align diverse technical and business groups.
• A proactive, self-starting mindset with the confidence to bring new ideas, challenge assumptions constructively, and elevate security maturity across the organization.
• A clear personal motivation aligned with Novocure's patient-forward mission.
