  • Published research in the field of cryptography.
  • In-depth knowledge of TCP/IP.
  • Proficiency in C++ and ASM programming languages.
  • Advanced technical knowledge in application and hardware security.
  • Highly preferred:
  • -- Advanced technical knowledge in Electromagnetism and quantum algorithms/materials.
  • -- Experience with quantum optics and laboratory apparatus, including SPDC entanglement sources, single-photon detectors, and Bell-state measurement systems.
  • -- Expertise in low and room temperature qubit measurements, including MKS systems.
  • -- Proficiency in cryogenics, lithography, and fiber optics.
  • Experience with computer-aided design (CAD) for advanced quantum systems.
  • Familiarity with NSTISSAM TEMPEST/1-92 and CNSSAM TEMPEST/01-02 specifications.
  • Ability to effectively communicate technical and non-technical information verbally and in writing to diverse audiences.

Responsibilities:

  • Conduct advanced research in lattice-based cryptography, emphasizing its potential to secure quantum communications and withstand quantum attacks.
  • Design, implement, and analyze cryptographic protocols utilizing non-standard lattice assumptions, ensuring adherence to the highest security standards.
  • Lead the integration of cryptographic primitives into Stealth's Quantum Framework, optimizing for both security and efficiency.
  • Prototype, test, and deploy lattice-based cryptographic solutions in operational quantum environments.
  • Collaborate with academia, cryptographers, and auditors to validate and refine cutting-edge cryptographic methodologies.
  • Implement cryptography specifications into secure, production-level code within the Quantum Framework.
  • Provide expert support for the integration of quantum-resistant protocols across Stealth's technology stack.
  • Document research findings, code, and APIs thoroughly, contributing to the academic and practical discourse on quantum-resistant cryptography.
  • Demonstrate capability for independent work and collaboration within a diverse and multidisciplinary team, including scientists, engineers, business professionals, and ex-military personnel.
