Health data is the highest-value target there is. Re:Sourced recruits the security engineers who protect clinical and patient systems, where a breach is a regulatory and human event, not just an incident report.
The profile
The work is application and platform security around sensitive health systems: securing clinical and patient data pipelines and APIs, privacy-by-design under the Privacy Act and My Health Record framework, threat modelling for protected health information, and the incident readiness a regulated health business is held to.
The differentiator is application-security depth paired with health-data regulatory literacy, defenders who understand both the exploit and the compliance obligation. Application security is the highest-demand cyber profile in Australian regulated sectors. Typical stack: AppSec tooling, cloud security, and healthcare compliance frameworks.
Where they come from
The pools sit inside healthtech scale-ups, the private health insurers, hospital networks, and the wider regulated financial-services security bench that healthtech competes with for talent. The reliable pattern: AppSec engineers moving from FS into health for mission and ownership.
Senior cyber engineers in Sydney price at AUD 170-200k base, with AppSec at the top and cleared roles commanding 15-25% premiums, base only, 25th-75th percentile of accepted offers. Full bands in the Salary Guide 2026.
