PKI Engineer, Senior
at ASM Research, An Accenture Federal Services Compan in Little Rock, Arkansas, United States
Job Description
The PKI Engineer, Senior designs, implements, and operates enterprise Public Key Infrastructure services that underpin secure authentication, encryption, and digital signatures across mission-critical systems. The role serves as the primary technical authority for certificate lifecycle management, key management, and trust architectures spanning on-premises and cloud environments. The engineer defines PKI standards, policies, and integration patterns for applications, devices, and identities, and leads troubleshooting, modernization, and automation initiatives to keep cryptographic services resilient, scalable, and audit-ready in a highly regulated federal IT environment.
Key Responsibilities
+ Architect and maintain enterprise PKI solutions, including certificate authorities, registration authorities, OCSP/CRL distribution, and hardware security modules, ensuring high availability and crypto-agility.
+ Oversee end-to-end certificate lifecycle management for users, services, devices, and workloads, including automated issuance, renewal, revocation, and inventory across hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
+ Design PKI trust models and integration patterns for TLS/SSL, S/MIME, code signing, VPN, Wi-Fi, and device authentication in support of zero-trust access and strong identity assurance.
+ Implement and enforce PKI security policies, certificate policies, and certification practice statements, aligning configurations with applicable government and industry cryptographic standards.
+ Build PowerShell or Python automation, APIs, and tooling to streamline PKI operations, monitoring, key rotation, and compliance reporting at enterprise scale.
+ Lead incident response for certificate-related outages or compromises, including rapid revocation, re-issuance, key rotation, and coordination with security operations and incident response teams.
+ Collaborate with identity, network, and application security architects to embed PKI requirements into new platforms and remediate legacy or non-compliant cryptographic implementations.
+ Guide risk assessments and audits focused on cryptographic controls, producing remediation roadmaps to address algorithm deprecation, weak ciphers, and end-of-life PKI components.
Required Qualifications
