for Cryptologic Research

Tsinghua University in China and Nanyang Technological University in Singapore are jointly seeking for candidates to fill several post-doctoral research fellow positions on symmetric-key cryptography with a tentative duration of 2 years. Topics include but are not limited to the following sub-areas:

• tool aided cryptanalysis, such as MILP, CP, STP, and SAT
• machine learning aided cryptanalysis and designs
• privacy-preserving friendly symmetric-key designs
• quantum cryptanalysis
• provable security
• cryptanalysis against SHA-2, SHA-3, and AES
• threshold cryptography

Candidates will have the chance to spend half of the time with Assoc Prof Xiaoyang Dong at Tsinghua University, China, and the other half with Assoc Prof Jian Guo at Nanyang Technological University in Singapore. Candidates with strong record of publications in IACR conferences (Asiacrypt, Crypto, Eurocrypt, FSE) are encouraged to apply. These positions are available immediately until filled.
