Regular or Temporary: Regular Language Fluency:  English (Required) Work Shift: 1st shift (United States of America) Please review the following job description: Serves as a hands-on enterprise architect and principal software engineer for the organization’s most complex cryptographic, secrets-management, and platform-security initiatives. This is a builder’s role, not an advisory one — the incumbent designs and personally implements reference architectures, writes production-grade code, and proves out patterns in running systems before asking other teams to adopt them. Combines deep software engineering craft across multiple languages and technical domains with real enterprise-architecture accountability and applied cryptography experience, delivering secure, scalable, highly available solutions that set the technical direction for the division. ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES Following is a summary of the essential functions for this job. Other duties may be performed, both major and minor, which are not mentioned below. Specific activities may change from time to time. Architects and personally builds end-to-end software and platform solutions for complex, high-impact cryptographic and security initiatives — producing working reference implementations, not slideware, that inform new products and platforms across the division. Owns the enterprise-architecture vision and its execution: translates strategic goals set by executives and senior leadership into concrete technical plans, then validates those plans by writing code, standing up prototypes, and operating them in real environments. Designs, implements, and integrates cryptographic and secrets-management capabilities — key management, encryption/decryption services, PKI, certificate lifecycle, HSM integration, token/credential issuance, and non-human-secrets controls — into production systems. Establishes advanced software engineering and secure-by-design standards, guardrails, and governance patterns, and demonstrates them through his/her own delivered work, enabling multiple teams to improve quality, reliability, and delivery outcomes. Resolves the hardest technical problems in the domain — the recurring, ambiguous, cross-system issues no one else has cracked — by designing innovative, reusable architectures and measurable performance, reliability, and scalability improvements. Goes arbitrarily deep in any technical domain required by the problem (distributed systems, APIs, data, infrastructure-as-code, container orchestration, applied cryptography), rapidly acquiring and applying expertise rather than deferring to specialists. Partners with senior technology leadership, product, architecture, and risk teams to shape domain strategy and roadmaps, contributing solution patterns backed by deep technical insight and firsthand implementation experience. Provides cross-team technical leadership, coaching, and mentoring through code reviews, design sessions, pairing, and knowledge sharing — raising the technical bar by example. Evaluates emerging technologies, cryptographic techniques, and research relevant to the domain, building prototypes that provide measurable input into new products, features, or capabilities. Leads large, complex, strategically important initiatives as an individual contributor, coordinating technical work across multiple teams while working independently
