Lead Engineer – Cryptography & Secrets
About the position
As a Lead Engineer, you serve as the technical anchor for the engineering team that supports a product. You create, own and are responsible for the application architecture that best serves the product in its functional and non-functional needs. You identify and drive architectural changes to accelerate feature development or improve the quality of service (or both). You have deep and broad engineering skills and can stand up an architecture in its whole on your own, but you choose to influence a wider team by acting as a “force multiplier”.

We are seeking a Lead Engineer to design, build, and evolve our enterprise cryptography, PKI, and secrets management platforms. This role is ideal for someone who deeply understands cryptographic systems and enjoys building reliable, scalable services in a modern engineering environment. You will lead technical strategy, mentor engineers, architect core security services, and partner with platform, cloud, identity, and application teams to ensure secure and seamless cryptographic capabilities across the enterprise.
Responsibilities
• Lead architecture and lifecycle management of cryptography, PKI, and secrets platforms
• Build and modernize services using Go or Java (proficiency in one required; both preferred)
• Integrate and operate PKI platforms (Keyfactor and/or Windows ADCS)
• Work with HSMs (Thales preferred)
• Establish standards, automation, and best practices
• Partner across cloud, platform, identity, and application teams
• Lead complex implementations and mentor engineers
