Summary
Soufiane Bouarfa is a Presales Engineer with 11 years of professional experience, specialized in PKI, certificate lifecycle management and secure system architectures. Trained as an engineer in information security at UTC, he has designed and deployed EVERTRUST CLM and PKI integrations across on-prem, cloud (AWS, Azure, GCP) and DevOps environments, working with HSMs and major CA technologies. He combines hands-on technical delivery—API, Kubernetes, Terraform and CI/CD integrations—with customer-facing presales and architecture work, including key ceremonies and complex protocol integrations (ACME, EST, SCEP, OpenID Connect). Based in Paris, he progressed rapidly from intern to solutions architect and now presales lead, bringing both rigorous academic grounding from preparatory classes and practical operational experience in production security. An attention-to-detail practitioner, he often bridges gaps between cryptographic infrastructure and business needs to make secure deployments auditable and automatable.
