Job description

Certificate Management Automation & Platform Lead

We will count on you to:

Own the enterprise certificate management automation strategy and roadmap, reducing manual certificate handling and operational risk.

Design and deliver automated issuance, renewal, and lifecycle workflows using ACME and API-based patterns across diverse technology stacks.

Engineer CI/CD and Infrastructure-as-Code integration patterns, including pipeline templates, reusable modules, and golden paths that enforce certificate standards by default.

Operate and continuously improve certificate platforms, including CA connectivity, policy enforcement, onboarding, observability, runbooks, and resilience planning.

Partner with Security, Platform, Infrastructure, Application, and vendor teams to drive durable automation, reliability improvements, and continuous innovation, including AI-enabled opportunities.

What you need to have:

7–10+ years of experience in technology with increasing senior-level responsibility.

Demonstrated experience building and operating enterprise certificate management automation platforms, ideally with HashiCorp Vault or an equivalent platform.

Strong knowledge of ACME, certificate APIs, automated issuance and renewal patterns, and integration approaches for varied application and platform environments.

Hands-on experience with automation and integration engineering, such as Python, Go, PowerShell, REST APIs, OAuth2/OIDC, and mTLS.

Strong stakeholder management and communication skills, with the ability to work effectively in a federated, cross-functional environment.

What makes you stand out:

Experience embedding certificate controls into CI/CD and developer workflows through reusable modules, golden paths, and self-service onboarding.

Proven ability to implement policy-as-code guardrails for naming, SANs, key sizes, validity periods, approvals, and segregation of duties.

Working knowledge of observability, reliability, and operational management for automation platforms, including dashboards, alerting, SLOs, HA/DR, patching, and auditability.

Familiarity with key management and secure key storage integrations, including HSMs, cloud KMS, and secrets management.

Experience driving large-scale certificate transitions, reissuance events, or automation improvements using AI to improve efficiency and operating model maturity.

Why join our team:

We help you be your best through professional development opportunities, interesting work and supportive leaders.

We foster a vibrant and inclusive culture where you can work with talented colleagues to create new solutions and have impact for colleagues, clients and communities.

Our scale enables us to provide a range of career opportunities, as well as benefits and rewards to enhance your well-being.
