Post-Quantum Cryptography Researcher

We seek a researcher specializing in post-quantum cryptography (PQC) to explore and develop secure cryptographic solutions for next-generation computing and communications. This role involves designing and evaluating novel cryptographic techniques, developing proof-of-concept implementations, and contributing to cutting-edge research in the field.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Conduct research in post-quantum cryptographic algorithms and their practical applications.
  • Design and prototype scalable cryptographic solutions for secure systems.
  • Analyze security risks and implement countermeasures against emerging threats.
  • Collaborate with engineering teams to integrate PQC methods into real-world applications.
  • Publish research findings and contribute to the broader cryptographic community.

Qualifications & Skills:

  • PhD (or equivalent research experience) in Computer Science, Cryptography, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
  • Deep understanding of post-quantum cryptographic algorithms, such as lattice-based cryptography, digital signatures, and key encapsulation.
  • Experience with hardware security, side-channel resistance, or secure software development.
  • Strong problem-solving abilities and the ability to work independently on complex research challenges.
  • Track record of academic publications or applied research in cryptographic security.

This role offers the opportunity to work on groundbreaking security advancements, shaping the future of cryptographic resilience in a post-quantum world.
