Advertised as Senior, but the requirements read as Mid.
“or” means any one of them counts — you don't need all of them.
We read this from the posting text with AI. Skim the description below before ruling yourself out.
Why we read it this way (7)
The 3–7+ year range is stated as a combined bracket across PKI, cybersecurity engineering, infrastructure security, or security engineering — 3 years is used as the minimum. The scope and requirements support a Mid-level classification despite the 'Senior' title.
The role sits between 15-1212 (Information Security Analysts) and 15-1244 (Network/Systems Admins) — the PKI/cryptographic infrastructure operations focus has a strong infrastructure-administration character, but the cybersecurity team context and security engineering framing tip it toward 15-1212.
Venafi, DigiCert, Microsoft Certificate Services, and AWS Certificate Manager are listed as interchangeable platform examples under the required skills section; Venafi is used as the primary with the others as alternatives. AWS Certificate Manager is also listed separately as a preferred skill given its cloud-specific context in the daily responsibilities.
The degree requirement explicitly accepts 'equivalent experience,' so no minimum degree is hard-gated.
This is a 12-month contract with potential for extension or conversion to full-time.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): certificate lifecycle management.
Posting is for a contract engagement — the market benchmarks below price full-time roles, so read the comp comparison with that in mind.
