Employment eligibility to work with American Express in the United States is required as the company will not pursue visa sponsorship for these positions. ## Description The Data Security team is responsible for safeguarding the organization's most critical asset-its data-by ensuring confidentiality, integrity, and availability across all platforms and environments. Working at the intersection of cybersecurity, data governance, and privacy, the Data Security team focuses on capabilities such as data classification, encryption, secure data access, and monitoring. The team partners closely with engineering, risk, and business units to embed security controls throughout the data lifecycle-from creation and storage to sharing and archival. We are seeking an experienced Senior Cybersecurity Engineer to join our Data Security organization. This role will design, develop, and modernize secure, scalable, and resilient cryptographic services while accelerating the adoption of AI-enabled engineering and intelligent automation. The ideal candidate will combine deep software engineering expertise with hands-on experience in PKI, cryptography, encryption, tokenization, digital certificates, secrets and key management, APIs, and cloud-native technologies. A key focus of this role will be leveraging Generative AI and AI-based automation across engineering and operational workflows to improve developer productivity, automate vulnerability remediation, proactively identify and remediate issues, reduce manual intervention, and advance our journey toward incident-free operations. Responsibilities: * Design, develop, and maintain enterprise-grade PKI, cryptographic, and Data Security services. * Build solutions leveraging PKI, symmetric/asymmetric cryptography, encryption, tokenization, digital certificates, signing, and cryptographic key management. * Drive adoption of Generative AI and AI-assisted engineering across development, testing, code reviews, documentation, troubleshooting, and vulnerability remediation. * Develop AI-enabled automation to proactively identify operational issues, accelerate root-cause analysis, automate remediation, and prevent recurring incidents. * Develop and leverage AI agents and intelligent workflows to automate repetitive engineering and operational activities and improve developer productivity. * Develop and integrate applications and services with HashiCorp Vault, KMS, HSM, enterprise PKI, and certificate management platforms. * Design and develop secure APIs and microservices using Java, Python, Go, JavaScript/TypeScript, or similar technologies. * Design and integrate REST and SOAP services using secure authentication, authorization, and communication patterns. * Build and operate cloud-native services using Kubernetes, Docker, service mesh, and public/private cloud platforms. * Strengthen observability and proactive monitoring to identify and remediate potential failures before they result in production incidents. * Establish engineering best practices across secure coding, automated testing, CI/CD, resiliency, performance, and production readiness. * Participate in architecture and technical design reviews and influence engineering standards across Data Security. * Mentor engineers and provide technical guidance across PKI, cryptography, secure software engineering, cloud-native development, and AI-enabled automation. * Partner with Product, Architecture, Engineering, Cybersecurity, and Operations teams to deliver secure and resilient solutions.
