Cybersecurity Senior Engineer - Certificate Automation Engineer

Job Overview

Responsible for advancing and scaling certificate automation across the enterprise with a primary focus on automated certificate deployment, installation, and validation across infrastructure platforms.

This role builds on existing certificate issuance and renewal automation to enable end-to-end lifecycle automation, ensuring certificates are consistently deployed, correctly configured, and validated across servers, load balancers, middleware, and application environments.

Partners with applications, infrastructure, and business teams to reduce operational risk, eliminate manual processes, and improve reliability of certificate management. Contributes to enterprise crypto agility initiatives, including readiness for evolving certificate life cycles and future quantum‑safe requirements.
