Job Summary
TheFraunhofer Singapore Research Centre belongs to the independent research centre at Nanyang Technological University (NTU). Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft () is one of the worlds leading applied research organizations with around 30800 employees predominantly scientists and engineers in Singapore Fraunhofer operates two independent but closely related and cooperative organizations: Fraunhofer-NTU Centre and Fraunhofer Singapore Research Ltd. Fraunhofer Singapore Research Ltd is the 1st affiliate of the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft in Asia. Both entities are legally independent entities working in close collaboration in joint facilities.
We invite applicants for the position of Research Associate. You will be part of the research team and will work on projects on quantum communication security including quantum side channel analysis and quantum hacking new evaluation and testing procedures for Quantum Security Technology and Quantum Key Distribution (QKD). You will conduct new research and development in quantum security investigating and translating methods into tools and frameworks and implementing working prototypes that can demonstrate how research outputs can be innovated to build new quantum testing and evaluation capabilities.
Key Responsibilities:
Conduct evaluation of state-of-the-art quantum security technology quantum key distribution systems and associated quantum cryptography protocols and implementations.
Develop and test research methods on non-invasive and semi-invasive aspects of quantum security including but not limited to classic/quantum hacking and side channel analysis etc.
Investigate methods and implement tools and pipeline to be included in the future quantum security testing.
Work closely with the team to design and develop research prototypes into the proof-of-concept testing systems.
Publish in top international conferences for quantum communication and security our research.
Prepare reports and documentation about the implementations produced for the project.
Job Requirements:
Masters in Physics or Computer Science preferably quantum physics.
Strong mathematical foundation and knowledge of quantum information theory.
Strong understanding of quantum communication and quantum key distribution with prior working experience is required.
Theoretical understanding of QKD protocols and familiarity with proof techniques for the security of QKD.
General understanding of classical information security and quantum optics.
Good grasp of the quantum technology policy landscape in East Asia (especially quantum communications standardization and certification activities) and Europe/Germany.
Experience in programming (e.g. python C ) and simulating quantum information systems.
Experience in security evaluation methods analyses and testing is preferred.
Demonstrated ability to work across interdisciplinary and diverse teams ideally with experience in project planning and management.
Good communication and presentation skills fluency in multiple languages is advantages.
We regret that only shortlisted candidates will be notified.
