managed cloud services and transitioning enterprise directories to achieve high-value licensing optimization. Operating across multi-platform operating systems and high-user-density topologies, you will ensure total platform resiliency through disaster recovery (DR) engineering, serverless utility scripting, and 24x7 production tier-3 triage support.
Location: Toronto, ON (Fully Onsite - 5 days/week required)
Duration: 6-month contract.
Advantages
Massive Scale Infrastructure Footprint: Command an authoritative deployment sandbox supporting security profiles, cryptographic validations, and access controls for over 10,000 registered active identities.
High-Visibility Modernization Catalyst: Spearhead high-impact infrastructure evergreening initiatives that directly de-risk security baselines and secure substantial cost savings.
Deep Cryptographic Engineering Exposure: Maximize your security profile by configuring foundational identity layers, from physical HSM nodes and directory schemas to cloud-hosted managed PKI providers.
Collaborative Central Workspace: Gain direct exposure to large enterprise IT environments, interacting closely with specialized network, infrastructure hosting, and vendor engineering pods.
Responsibilities
PKI Stack Evergreening & Cloud Migration: Drive the technical upgrade of Entrust CA systems from legacy v8.2.40 to Entrust CA v10, laying the architectural foundation for subsequent migration into Entrust Managed Cloud Services.
Directory Infrastructure Refactoring: Transition enterprise directories by replacing Atos DirX environments with Oracle Unified Directory (OUD) to capture substantial structural licensing efficiencies.
Disaster Recovery (DR) Engineering: Define, build, and document automated hot-standby and fail-over disaster recovery topologies for core Certificate Authority engines, encompassing both Entrust and ADCS CA networks.
Hardware Security Module (HSM) Configuration: Perform low-level technical provisioning and policy adjustments on Hardware Security Modules (HSM) to enforce hardened cryptographic keys.
Tier-2/3 Production Support & On-Call Triage: Provide mission-critical 24x7 production support coordination, isolating deep-seated performance anomalies across interconnected proxies, firewalls, network load balancers, and entry gateways.
Client System Integration & Pattern Design: Analyze external business application technical requirements across ministries, providing repeatable integration design blueprints, scripts, and automated utilities to hook systems into the shared authentication grid.
Telemetry Monitoring & System Management: Establish granular event thresholds, metrics alerts, and performance monitoring baselines across web servers (IIS, Apache HTTPD, NGINX, WebLogic) and Oracle Databases.
ITIL Process Alignment: Conduct configuration, release, and emergency patch installations in strict compliance with formalized corporate Change Management, Incident Management, and Capacity planning lanes.
Structured Knowledge Transfer: Author technical runbooks, maintenance procedures, and training roadmaps to transition platform sustainment successfully over to permanent cluster IT staff.
Qualifications
Core IAM & System Sustainment Seniority: 10+ years of progressive professional experience administering, operating, and patching COTS-based Identity and Access Management systems, with at least 4 years explicitly supporting deployment matrices protecting 10,000+ active users (Strictly Required).
PKI & Core Product Domain Depth: 10+ years of hands-on expertise designing, deploying, and sustaining large-scale system integrations utilizing the Entrust PKI Suite (Security Manager, Proxy, Automated Enrollment Services) alongside Oracle Identity Manager (OIM) (Strictly Required).
Directory Access & LDAP Prowess: Expert command of LDAP management utilities, directory structures, and CLI commands using toolsets like Atos Dir.X, Oracle Unified Directory (OUD), and Apache Directory Studio.
Web Server & Application Middleware Fluency: Strong background configuring, starting/stopping, and fine-tuning multi-tier web platforms, explicitly Windows IIS, Apache HTTPD, IBM Web Server, NGINX, and Oracle WebLogic.
Cross-Platform OS & Database Command: Advanced system administration literacy across multi-generation operating systems (Solaris, Linux, AIX, Windows Server) paired with robust SQL scripting and Oracle 11g (and later) database management skills.
Network Infrastructure Competency: Solid functional understanding of core networking technologies, including load balancers, reverse proxies, and hardware gateway configurations.
ITIL Service Management Literacy: Demonstrated experience executing standard operational procedures under structured ITIL frameworks (Change, Problem, Incident, and Asset Release Management).
Soft Skills: Outstanding critical thinking, data-driven troubleshooting, and technical documentation capabilities, with a proven ability to independently resolve multi-component system crashes under time-sensitive constraints.
Nice to Have:
Prior professional experience delivering security architecture, identity migrations, or infrastructure support within a Canadian public sector framework or corporate agency cluster.
