Job responsibilities


* Own the cryptography and key management strategy and roadmap across platforms and applications, including standards, reference architectures, and secure-by-default patterns covering encryption, signing, and key lifecycle


* Lead the design and development of key management and data protection capabilities, including hardware security module and key management service integrations, envelope encryption patterns, key hierarchies, rotation, revocation, backup/restore, and access controls


* Design and deliver applied cryptography solutions for data-at-rest, in-transit, and in-use use cases, balancing security, reliability, latency, and cost


* Establish and operate cryptographic key lifecycle controls encompassing key generation, storage, distribution, usage restrictions, rotation schedules, decommissioning/destruction, and audit logging/monitoring


* Partner with engineering teams to embed cryptography safely via reusable libraries and software development kits, secure configuration baselines, and migration plans away from legacy algorithms or unsafe implementations


* Own certificate and identity-related cryptography, including public key infrastructure and transport layer security guidance, certificate issuance/rotation automation, and mutual transport layer security patterns, while driving reductions in certificate and key operational risk


* Drive algorithm agility and post-quantum readiness by maintaining an inventory of cryptographic usage, defining upgrade paths, running proof-of-concepts, and planning staged migrations


* Advise stakeholders and senior business leaders during vulnerability periods, including risk assessment, compensating controls, prioritization, and clear decision options and tradeoffs


* Build shift-left security into the software development lifecycle and toolchain through threat modeling, secure design reviews, static and dynamic analysis, secret scanning, cryptographic misuse checks, and policy-as-code where applicable


* Lead security testing and assurance for cryptographic and key systems, including...
