Sr. PKI DevOps Engineer
New Today
An employer is looking for a Remote Sr. DevOps Engineer to work PST hours. This person needs to have deep expertise in Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) to support the design, automation, and maintenance of enterprise-grade cryptographic systems. This role is critical to ensuring the integrity, availability, and compliance of our certificate services and secure key management infrastructure. In this role, the individual will be responsible for designing, building, and deploying enterprise-grade Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) systems, including private Certificate Authorities (CAs). Their daily tasks will include ensuring these systems comply with data privacy and protection frameworks such as FIPS and NIST, while adhering to industry best practices. They will assess and remediate PKI designs to mitigate risks, manage and test configurations before production deployment, and automate PKI infrastructure using CI/CD pipelines and DevOps methodologies. The role also involves managing and integrating Hardware Security Modules (HSMs) and Key Management Systems (KMS), troubleshooting issues related to PKI, TLS/SSL, and HSMs, and maintaining accurate system documentation. Staying current with emerging threats and cryptographic standardsincluding post-quantum cryptography like FIPS-204is essential. Additionally, the individual will collaborate with system administrators and developers to support CA-related application changes and integrations, while continuously refining PKI best practices and operational standards.
