Have anyone tried signing JWT with ES512 algorithm?

Has anyone managed to sign JWT with ES512 algorithm successfully? I have tried to look for libraries to do this but was not successful

I generated my keypair using

openssl ecparam -genkey -name secp521r1 -noout -out ec521-key-pair.pem
openssl ec -in ec521-key-pair.pem -pubout -out ec521-public-key.pem

Tried using yajwt | Hex

private_key = File.read("ec521-key-pair.pem")

opts = %{
  alg: "ES512",
  key: private_key
}

JWT.sign(
  %{
    jti: Ecto.UUID.generate(),
    iss: "client",
    aud: "server",
    nbf: DateTime.now!("Etc/UTC") |> DateTime.to_unix(),
    iat: DateTime.now!("Etc/UTC") |> DateTime.to_unix(),
    exp: (DateTime.now!("Etc/UTC") |> DateTime.to_unix()) + expiry
  },
  opts
)

Unsuccessful
