Who We Are

At Kyndryl, we design, build, manage and modernize the mission-critical technology systems that the world depends on every day. So why work at Kyndryl? We are always moving forward – always pushing ourselves to go further in our efforts to build a more equitable, inclusive world for our employees, our customers and our communities.

The Role

Profiles with strong expertise in PKI and cryptography, with proven knowledge in Certificate Lifecycle Management (CLM) and PKI architecture/operations (issuance policies, key protection, CRL/OCSP, governance and auditability). Comfortable leading certificate inventory and ownership models, driving renewal/rotation automation, and integrating CLM/PKI capabilities with enterprise platforms and applications to reduce expiry-related incidents and strengthen security and compliance in hybrid and cloud environments.

Nice to have: experience in data discovery and classification, encryption strategy, tokenization/FPE, DLP and DSPM, aligning data protection controls with regulatory requirements and data governance practices.

SKILLS AND KNOWLEDGE

PKI / CLM Expertise (must-have): strong knowledge of PKI concepts and operations (Root/Sub CA design, certificate profiles/templates, issuance policies, CRL/AIA, OCSP, key ceremony basics, separation of duties), plus end-to-end Certificate Lifecycle Management (discovery, inventory, ownership, renewal/rotation, revocation, retirement).

Cryptography fundamentals applied to enterprise: practical understanding of symmetric/asymmetric crypto, hashing/signing, TLS/mTLS, key protection and lifecycle (generation, storage, rotation, compromise handling), and how these choices impact security, availability and compliance.

Hybrid & cloud delivery: experience working across on-prem and cloud environments, integrating certificate services with infrastructure (load balancers, web servers, API gateways), identity components, and application pipelines.

Automation mindset: ability to design and implement automation for certificate issuance and renewals (e.g., API-driven workflows, integrations with CMDB/ITSM, and protocols such as ACME/SCEP/EST when applicable).

Troubleshooting & incident handling: strong skills diagnosing certificate/TLS issues (expiry, trust chain, name mismatch, handshake failures), managing revocations/compromises, and executing remediation at pace with minimal service impact.

(Nice to have) Data protection controls: exposure to data discovery/classification, DLP, DSPM, encryption strategy, and tokenization/FPE—especially where they intersect with key management and certificate governance.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

Own PKI/CLM solution delivery: lead the assessment, design and implementation of PKI and CLM capabilities, from current-state review to target architecture and operational model.

Certificate inventory & governance: build/maintain a complete certificate inventory (where they live, what they protect, owners, expiry, criticality), define ownership and stewardship, and establish governance processes and policy standards.

Automation & integration: implement certificate lifecycle automation (request/approval, issuance, deployment, renewal/rotation, revocation), integrating CLM/PKI with enterprise platforms (load balancers, web/app servers, container platforms, API gateways, CI/CD pipelines, CMDB/ITSM, IAM).
