The Challenge:

As a Public Key Infrastructure Engineer on our project, you’ll provide support to the DoD public key infrastructure (PKI) by managing the infrastructure for a DoD client. You’ll work with the government and the in-house PKI team to identify the right mix of tools and techniques to translate your customer’s needs and future goals into a plan that will enable secure and effective solutions and ensure the availability of the DoD PKI for OCONUS users is maintained.

We need to come up with the best solution, so you’ll investigate new techniques, break free from the legacy model, and go where the industry is going. As a team, we’ll take a critical approach to network design, providing alternatives and customizing solutions to maintain a balance of security and mission needs. This is a chance to learn from a team of experts as you make a difference in the security of warfighter communications. Your contributions will help customers to overcome their most difficult challenges by integrating secure practices like PKI integration, Identity and Access Management (IdAM), and multi-factor authentication. You’ll be able to gain experience in the DoD PKI, including securing Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) systems and deploying a mix of security tools to meet mission needs while building peace of mind in a critical infrastructure. Join our team as we improve warfighter communications through Cybersecurity.
