This role necessitates security clearance and is based onsite.

Qualifications:

  • Essential: An active, transferable TS/SCI CI Poly U.S. government-issued security clearance prior to commencement.
  • PhD in Quantum Cryptography, Quantum Information Theory, or a closely related discipline.
  • A minimum of 5 years post-doctoral experience in a competitive quantum cryptography/information research environment.
  • Extensive knowledge in lattice-based cryptography, advanced encryption methods, and signature schemes.
  • Familiarity with semi-definite programming and numerical optimization techniques.
  • Experience in fine-grained cryptography and impossibility results.
  • Proficient in designing and analyzing homomorphic, attribute-based, functional encryption, and signature schemes (e.g., ring, group, threshold).
  • Published contributions in the field of cryptography.
  • Comprehensive understanding of TCP/IP.
  • Proficient in C++ and ASM programming languages.
  • Advanced technical knowledge in application and hardware security.
  • Highly preferred:
  • -- Advanced technical expertise 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.
  • -- Proficiency in low and room temperature qubit measurements, including MKS systems.
  • -- Knowledge in cryogenics, lithography, and fiber optics.
  • Experience with computer-aided design (CAD) for sophisticated quantum systems.
  • Familiarity with NSTISSAM TEMPEST/1-92 and CNSSAM TEMPEST/01-02 specifications.
  • Ability to effectively communicate technical and non-technical information to diverse audiences, both verbally and in writing.

Responsibilities:

  • Conduct pioneering research in lattice-based cryptography, focusing on its potential to secure quantum communications against quantum threats.
  • Design, implement, and evaluate 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 academic institutions, cryptographers, and auditors to validate and refine state-of-the-art 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.
  • Thoroughly document research findings, code, and APIs, contributing to the academic and practical discourse on quantum-resistant cryptography.
  • Demonstrate capability for independent work as well as collaboration within a diverse and multidisciplinary team, including scientists, engineers, business professionals, and ex-military personnel.

This position presents a distinctive opportunity to contribute to groundbreaking advancements in quantum cryptography and secure communications technology.

Compensation begins at $250,000, accompanied by a Sign-On Bonus of $250,000.
