  • Enable certificate-based authentication for enterprise platforms, services, workloads, and devices
Software Development & Automation
  • Build and maintain software services and automation supporting PKI operations
  • Develop APIs, workflows, and tooling to integrate PKI services into enterprise systems
  • Apply DevOps practices including CI/CD, monitoring, and operational ownership of production systems
Security Integration & Incident Support
  • Collaborate with security architects and infrastructure teams to align PKI solutions with policy and compliance requirements
  • Participate in incident response and troubleshooting related to certificate validation, trust failures, and service outages
  • Support secure key management practices including HSM integration and secure enclaves
Documentation, Leadership & Collaboration
  • Develop and maintain technical documentation, operational runbooks, and PKI standards
  • Provide technical leadership, code reviews, and mentorship to engineering peers
  • Communicate complex PKI concepts clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders, including enterprise clients
Required Qualifications
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Cybersecurity, or equivalent professional experience
  • 5 or more years of hands-on experience designing and operating PKI systems using EJBCA or comparable CA and RA platforms
  • 8 or more years of experience with programming or scripting languages such as Python, Go, or Java
  • Deep understanding of PKI internals including X.509 certificates, trust chains, CRLs, OCSP, certificate templates, and key usage extensions
  • Experience with certificate enrollment protocols such as SCEP, EST, ACME, or CMP
  • Experience designing or implementing certificate lifecycle automation and CLM workflows
  • Familiarity with HSM integration, key escrow, and secure key storage practices
  • Strong Linux experience and proficiency with version control systems such as Git
  • Experience integrating PKI services within cloud environments such as AWS
  • Solid understanding of DevOps practices, CI/CD pipelines, monitoring, and production system ownership
  • Strong communication skills and ability to work directly with enterprise clients
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience with hardware-backed security mechanisms including TPMs, HSMs, or secure enclaves
  • Experience implementing PKI in Kubernetes, service mesh, or workload identity environments
  • Exposure to device attestation, platform security, or secure boot technologies
  • Familiarity with security and compliance frameworks such as NIST, ISO, or SOC 2
  • Awareness of common security vulnerabilities and secure design principles
  • General understanding of identity, Zero Trust, multi-factor authentication, and secrets management
Core Skills & Attributes
  • Deep technical understanding of PKI internals beyond tool administration
  • Strong software engineering mindset with an automation-first approach
  • Ability to design scalable, fault-tolerant security services
  • Clear, confident communicator with strong client-facing presence
  • Collaborative approach across security, infrastructure, and application teams
  • Ownership mentality for production systems and long-term maintainability
