AEM Document Security

Remote

6 - 10 years in PDF security expertise (PDF encryption standards, DRM, watermarking, document protection mechanisms)

Master's or Bachelor’s Degree.

Project Overview:

We're undertaking a critical modernization initiative to replace our aging Adobe LiveCycle Rights Management ES4 infrastructure, which currently powers PDF document protection across our VDR platform. 

This is a complex enterprise security project with significant technical debt.

Current State:

• Legacy Adobe LiveCycle ES4 DRM server (end-of-life product)
• Custom Adobe Component plugins (Java) for CapLinked authentication/authorization, PDF policy management, and identity management
• Rails-based core application, Redis, Sidekiq Background Job Processing
• Ruby Microservice communicating through REST API and SOAP for document processing and protection

Project Scope:

Build a modern, scalable PDF DRM solution from the ground up that maintains backward compatibility during migration while supporting protected documents and thousands of concurrent users in a high-security VDR environment.

We're evaluating Adobe Experience Manager Document Security as a potential replacement platform.

Technical Skills:

• Deep PDF security expertise (PDF encryption standards, DRM, watermarking, document protection mechanisms)
• Strong Java/JVM background to architect the migration path from current Adobe Component plugins (Java) legacy component
• Enterprise security architecture (SSO/SAML/OAuth2/OIDC, encryption at rest/in transit, PKI, certificate management)
• Document processing pipelines and high-volume document manipulation experience
• Architected authentication/authorization systems for enterprise applications
• Cloud infrastructure expertise (AWS preferred)

Key Experience Areas:

• Ruby/Rails proficiency for seamless integration with existing application and microservices (strong plus)
• Built or maintained DRM protection systems or components (strong plus)
• Prior experience with Adobe LiveCycle, Adobe Experience Manager Document Security, or similar enterprise document management platforms (strong plus)
• Led legacy system modernization projects
