International Association
for Cryptologic Research

As part of an experienced team in security and software, you will contribute to the development of security features for future generation of sustainable IoT applications leveraging distributed architectures, edge AI capabilities and advanced cryptography (e.g. post quantum, threshold cryptography). You will be working closely with a diverse team of engineers and researchers, and you will take a leading role in transforming a vision into tangible IPs.

Your responsibilities

• Implement cryptography and security primitives for embedded devices.
• Develop Proof of concepts based on advanced cryptography topics.
• Harden the security modules against side channel attacks, software attacks and other relevant threats.
• Adopt a holistic approach to design robust (end to end) security features.
• Propose innovative security IPs and challenge them against state of the art and review them with peers.
• Build demonstrators and share results/knowledge with your colleagues.
• Continuously keep aware of the state of the art.
• Contribute to the supervision of interns.

Your profile
You are a PhD graduate or an MSc graduate with >=2 years experience. You have background in applied cryptography or embedded security and experience in embedded development. You are motivated to progress within applied cryptography and embedded security. Programming languages: C, Python. ML frameworks, VHDL would be an advantage.
