Encryption Program Analyst, Vice President, Hybrid

State Street is seeking an experienced Encryption Program Analyst to help design, implement, and optimize enterprise-wide encryption and key management solutions across cloud, on-premises, and IoT environments in a highly regulated environment. This role will be responsible for defining cryptographic strategies, ensuring compliance with regulatory standards, and leading the integration of encryption services across a diverse infrastructure. As financial institutions increasingly adopt hybrid cloud and IoT-enabled banking solutions, this role will play a critical part in securing data at rest, in transit, and in use, ensuring end-to-end cryptographic protection across applications, infrastructure, and connected devices. The ideal candidate will have deep expertise in cryptographic key management, Hardware Security Modules (HSMs), cloud security, IoT encryption protocols, and enterprise data protection. This role can be performed in a hybrid model, where you can balance work from home and office to match your needs and role requirements.

What you will be responsible for:

• Implement and maintain the enterprise cryptographic strategy, ensuring alignment with security, compliance, and business objectives.
• Define and maintain key lifecycle management processes and procedures, including key generation, rotation, revocation, and decommissioning for cloud, on-premises, and IoT environments.
• Support the deployment of centralized Key Management Systems (KMS), including cloud-native KMS (AWS KMS, Azure Key Vault, OCI KMS), and enterprise HSMs.
• Ensure robust data encryption methodologies are applied to data stored in databases, applications, and IoT connected devices.
• Collaborate with cloud security and DevSecOps teams to integrate encryption and key management into CI/CD pipelines and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) deployments.
• Develop IoT encryption frameworks to secure IoT devices.
• Support the integration of encryption solutions into applications, databases, cloud services, IoT platforms, and enterprise infrastructure.
• Collaborate with application security, infrastructure, and DevSecOps teams to embed cryptographic security controls into software development and deployment processes.
• Support post-quantum cryptography (PQC) readiness by evaluating and preparing for emerging threats to encryption security.
• Ensure compliance with NIST 800-57, PCI DSS, FIPS 140-2/3, ISO 27001, GDPR, FFIEC, and IoT security (NIST 800-183, ETSI EN 303 645).

What We Value:

• Developing governance frameworks for encryption and cryptographic key management, including policies for key storage, access control, logging, and auditing.
• Conduct risk assessments, vulnerability testing, and security reviews for cryptographic implementations, IoT ecosystems, and cloud security controls.
• Act as a key stakeholder in security audits, regulatory assessments, and IoT security standardization efforts.
• Provide technical support and training to internal teams on encryption best practices, cloud security, and IoT security.
• Stay ahead of advancements in cryptographic algorithms, quantum computing risks, and emerging IoT security frameworks.
• Drive innovation in encryption automation, integrating key management with DevSecOps, and Infrastructure as Code (IaC).

Education & Preferred Qualifications:

• Multiyear (>4 years) experience within Cybersecurity including SecOps, Cloud Security, and secure architecture.
• Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science/Engineering, related discipline, or equivalent work experience.
• Strong proficiency in Python, PowerShell, Bash, or Java.
• Hands-on experience with key management systems (HashiCorp Vault, AWS KMS, Azure Key Vault, OCI KMS).
• Experience with Kubernetes, Terraform, Ansible, Chef, and CI/CD automation.
• Understanding of cryptographic algorithms (AES, RSA, ECC), hardware security modules (HSMs), and secure key storage practices.
• Experience working in financial institutions or other highly regulated industries.
• Certifications such as CISSP, CISM, AWS Security Specialty, HashiCorp Certified Vault Associate or CCSK.
• Familiarity with NIST 800-57, PCI DSS, FIPS 140-2/3, ISO 27001, GDPR, FFIEC, and IoT security (NIST 800-183, ETSI EN 303 645).

Additional requirements:

• Travel up to 10% may be required.
