There are a couple of commercial/open core projects that do this, teleport and smallstep come to mind. I think hashicorp vault also has something related to ssh cert management.

Uber has open-sourced its version: https://medium.com/uber-security-privacy/introducing-the-...

We have our own version that I hope to push to open source, but it's typically very tied to the company's infrastructure.

Indeed Vault does - https://developer.hashicorp.com/vault/docs/secrets/ssh/si.... I've never used that engine, but we use it for lots of other things. Since it also has a wide variety of authentication methods, you can configure it in a way that fits your organization.
