What Well Bring:
Lead Developer (Pipeline Automation PKI & Hybrid Cloud)
What Youll Bring:
We are seeking a Senior Developer with 10 years of experience to accelerate engineering throughput by building automation-first platforms improving CI/CD and release reliability and enabling secure self-service capabilities across hybrid cloud environments. The ideal candidate is hands-on with scripting pipeline engineering and secure automation including PKI and certificate lifecycle automation and thrives collaborating across engineering security and operations teams.
What Youll Do (Key Responsibilities)
1) Developer Velocity & Pipeline Automation
- Design and implement automation to reduce manual effort accelerate delivery and minimize errors across engineering workflows.
- Build and enhance CI/CD pipelines and automation frameworks that improve build/test/release speed and consistency.
- Establish engineering paved roads (templates golden pipelines reusable modules) and drive adoption through enablement and documentation
2) Hybrid Cloud Automation
- Define and implement automation strategies for hybrid cloud infrastructure components including resource provisioning and lifecycle management.
- Build secure and governed self-service workflows/portals that allow teams to provision resources quickly within organizational guardrails.
- Leverage containers and orchestration platforms (e.g. Kubernetes) to deliver scalable automation capabilities.
3) PKI / Certificate Lifecycle Automation
- Implement automation for PKI and certificate lifecycle management (issuance renewal deployment rotation) as part of broader hybrid cloud automation.
- Administer and automate certificate operations across enterprise tooling and workflows (e.g. workflow design integrations policy-driven automation).
- Troubleshoot end-to-end certificate flows and perform root cause analysis for failed issuance/renewals across CA/CLM/HSM components.
4) Security Compliance and Governance
- Ensure automation solutions align with security and compliance best practices including access control and consistent certificate practices.
- Apply PKI standards and help enforce policy and compliance expectations in automated workflows.
5) Technical Leadership & Cross-Team Collaboration
- Act as a senior technical contributor/lead collaborating across multiple teams to translate requirements into scalable automation solutions.
- Drive continuous improvement by identifying automation opportunities and delivering a pragmatic roadmap.
Required Qualifications
- 10 years in software engineering platform engineering DevOps or automation-focused roles.
- Strong scripting and automation skills (e.g. Python PowerShell Bash) and ability to build maintainable tooling.
- Proven experience building and operating CI/CD pipelines and automation frameworks.
- Hands-on experience with hybrid cloud automation: provisioning lifecycle management and self-service enablement.
- Practical understanding of PKI and certificate lifecycle management and ability to automate certificate operations at scale.
- Experience working across security/engineering/ops stakeholders to deliver secure-by-default automation.
Preferred / Nice-to-Have
- Strong software design & development background (OO design API design building reusable services/libraries). (Nice-to-have per your ask; not required.)
- Experience with Infrastructure as Code (e.g. Terraform) and configuration management.
- Experience with Kubernetes ecosystem and delivery patterns for platform automation.
- PKI depth in one or more of:
- Microsoft ADCS (templates CRL/OCSP enrollment subordinate CAs)
- HSM operations (key generation partitioning PKCS#11 integrations)
- Cryptography/TLS concepts (RSA/ECC mTLS CSR signing flows)
- Familiarity with ACME automation and/or certificate rotation patterns for containers/Kubernetes.
Impact Youll Make:
Core Competencies (What Success Looks Like)
- Measurably improved engineering lead time and deployment frequency via pipeline and workflow automation.
- Reduced manual toil and incident rate through standardized repeatable automation.
- Secure compliant certificate automation that scales across hybrid cloud services.
- Clear documentation reusable modules and strong enablement that drives adoption across teams.
This is a hybrid position and involves regular performance of job responsibilities virtually as well as in-person at an assigned TU office location for a minimum of two days a week.
