Job Description

Senior Middleware Engineer automating PKI and SSL/TLS certificate lifecycle management. Supporting Ensono’s managed technology services through secure infrastructure, compliance, and incident resolution.

Responsibilities:

  • Generate and provision SSL/TLS certificates using industry-standard tools and certificate authorities, managing the complete request-to-issuance workflow while maintaining secure key storage and documentation.
  • Monitor certificate expiration dates proactively and execute timely renewals to prevent service disruptions, maintaining 100% uptime during renewal processes.
  • Design and implement automated certificate management solutions to streamline generation, installation, and renewal processes through scripting and orchestration.
  • Integrate certificate management with CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure-as-code platforms, and Kubernetes and Docker environments.
  • Ensure compliance with organizational security policies and industry standards, securely handling certificate-related credentials and keys and conducting regular security audits.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve certificate-related issues across development, operations, and security environments, providing technical support and production incident escalation handling.
  • Use Keyfactor Command (CLM) for automated certificate discovery, lifecycle management, and renewal at scale.
  • Apply PKI fundamentals including certificate chains, RSA/ECC key algorithms, CSR generation, CRL/AIA/OCSP, and key ceremonies.
  • Create documentation, runbooks, and training materials on certificate management procedures and best practices.

Requirements:

  • 6+ years of hands-on experience in certificate management, PKI (Public Key Infrastructure) administration, or related security infrastructure roles.
  • Strong technical knowledge of SSL/TLS protocols, certificate formats (X.509, PEM, DER, PKCS#12), and their implementation across various platforms and environments.
  • Proficiency with certificate authorities including commercial CAs (DigiCert, GlobalSign, Sectigo) and open-source solutions (Let's Encrypt, OpenSSL-based CAs).
  • Advanced proficiency with certificate management tools such as OpenSSL, keytool, certbot, and platform-specific certificate management utilities.
  • Hands-on experience administering and configuring web servers (Apache, Nginx) and application servers (Tomcat, JBoss, IIS) with certificate installations.
  • Demonstrated expertise in Linux/Unix and Windows server environments, including command-line administration and system-level operations.
  • Experience with infrastructure-as-code and automation frameworks such as Terraform, Ansible, Chef, or Puppet for managing certificate deployments at scale.
  • Knowledge of monitoring and alerting platforms to implement certificate status tracking, expiration monitoring, and incident notification systems.
  • Perform routine CA maintenance: database backups, CA certificate renewal, CRL/AIA rollover planning, and root/subordinate CA key ceremonies as needed.
  • Troubleshoot ADCS-related issues — enrollment failures, template permission issues, autoenrollment failures, SPN/Kerberos-related errors (e.g., WSMAN SPN issues for remote enrollment/orchestration).
  • Excellent organizational, communication, and problem-solving abilities with strong attention to detail, ability to document procedures clearly, and communicate technical concepts effectively.
