Descripción de la vacante

Morgan Stanley's Technology division is seeking a Lead Cyber Security Engineer (VP) to design, implement and operate enterprise cryptographic solutions, including PKI, HSMs, certificate lifecycle and secrets management across on‑prem and cloud environments.

You will mentor junior colleagues, drive architectural decisions, collaborate with product, infrastructure and security teams, and participate in on‑call rotations to ensure security, availability and performance of cryptographic services.

Formación

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, Information Technology, or related field.
• 10+ years hands‑on cybersecurity engineering or operations with exposure to cryptographic services (PKI, HSMs, certificate management).
• Strong understanding of cryptographic principles, protocols, and standards (e.g., TLS, X.509).
• Proven experience managing PKI environments and certificate lifecycle tools in enterprise and/or cloud environments.
• Hands‑on experience with HSM technologies and key management practices, including secure key generation, storage, rotation, and backup.
• Familiarity with automation and scripting (e.g., Python, PowerShell, or similar) to streamline certificate and key management processes.
• Knowledge of emerging cryptographic trends, including Post‑Quantum Cryptography (PQC) and crypto‑agility concepts; relevant certifications such as CISSP, CISM, or vendor-specific PKI/HSM certifications are preferred.
• Prior experience as a lead or driver of change in a security function.

Responsabilidades

• Communicate regularly with product leads across the organization and discuss opportunities for improvement to existing and future technology solutions.
• Design, implement, and maintain enterprise cryptographic infrastructure, including PKI, HSMs, and certificate management platforms.
• Manage the full certificate lifecycle (issuance, renewal, revocation, and deployment) to ensure security, availability, and compliance.
• Engineer and support secure key management solutions leveraging HSMs, including key generation, storage, rotation, and backup.
• Monitor and operate cryptographic services in a 24/7 environment (on call rotations), ensuring high availability, incident response, and performance optimization.
• Automate certificate and key management processes to reduce manual effort and minimize operational risk.
• Collaborate with application, infrastructure, and security teams to integrate cryptographic controls into enterprise systems and cloud environments.
• Support the evaluation, design, and adoption of Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) capabilities, including PQC-enabled PKI environments, crypto-agility strategies and transition planning
• Ability to effectively manage multiple functions and initiatives.
• Apply prior expertise in driving deeper architectural decisions.
• Impart leadership as an experienced technologist who can mentor and guide junior colleagues.
