What you'll do
The migration off static credentials. Driving adoption of dynamic, identity-based credentials across Procore's service estate — not just building the platform, but getting teams to move onto it.
Developer experience for secrets. Self-service provisioning, credential lifecycle, certificate rotation, and the standards that make the secure path the easy path.
The team. Hiring, growing, and retaining engineers across US and international time zones, including career development for senior and staff ICs in a narrow specialty.
Reliability of a Tier-0 dependency. When the secrets platform degrades, deploys stop. SLOs, on-call health, and incident response are yours.
Partnership with Security Engineering. Aligning platform investment against real compliance and audit obligations without turning your team into a ticket queue.
Prioritization under ambiguity. This domain generates far more demand than a six-person team can absorb. Deciding what not to do is a core part of the job.
What we're looking for
2+ years managing software or infrastructure engineering teams, including senior or staff ICs
7+ years total engineering experience, with hands-on background in backend systems, distributed infrastructure, or platform engineering
Direct experience with secrets management or identity infrastructure — Vault or equivalent, OIDC, PKI, certificate lifecycle, least-privilege access models
Complementary — genuinely not required
External Secrets Operator, SPIFFE/SPIRE, or workload identity federation
Experience in a regulated or audited environment (SOC 2, ISO 27001, FedRAMP)
Vendor evaluation and contract negotiation for infrastructure tooling
Working fluency in Kubernetes and infrastructure-as-code (Terraform/HCL, Helm)
A track record of building internal platforms other engineers actually adopted, plus the influence to drive migrations across teams you don't control
Comfort operating a service other teams depend on: SLOs, incident management, on-call
