Meet the Team

The Cryptographic Services Team develops and maintains Cisco's core backend PKI and secrets management services, enabling secure operations for multiple customer-facing and business-critical applications across the company. We are redefining the way product teams secure products and services through innovative technology. As part of the team, you'll support globally deployed services that are highly critical to Cisco and our customers.

Working alongside experienced engineers, you'll be directly involved with all of our cloud technologies, automation, and container platforms, supporting the delivery of high-availability security services at scale. You will:

• Build and maintain infrastructure-as-code (Terraform / Terragrunt or similar) for cloud infrastructure: networking, compute, Kubernetes clusters, storage, encryption keys, and databases.
• Deploy and manage workloads on Kubernetes using Helm and GitOps (ArgoCD or equivalent) and build container and machine images via automated build pipelines (Docker, Packer/Ansible, or similar).
• Develop and maintain CI/CD pipelines (GitLab CI or comparable), including short-lived/credential-less authentication patterns and secrets retrieval at runtime.
• Author and test policy-as-code governance controls and help implement least-privilege and compliance requirements across environments.
• Write operational tooling and automation (Go, Python, and/or Bash) for tasks like auditing, lease/token management, migrations, health checks, and incident response.
• Improve observability: metrics, logging, dashboards, and alerting; help author and implement runbooks.
• Participate in upgrades, capacity planning, hardening, and reliability work for a production security-critical service.
• Write clear documentation and contribute to a culture of secure-by-default engineering.

• Experience with policy-as-code (HashiCorp Sentinel, OPA/Rego, Kyverno, or similar).
• Familiarity with PKI / certificate lifecycle, encryption-as-a-service, or dynamic secrets.
