We are currently seeking a Quantum Cyber Security Engineer with expertise in Quantum Safe Security solutions to join our team and help secure the nation's digital landscape. You will play a pivotal role in the design, development, and implementation of cutting-edge quantum cybersecurity solutions. Your expertise will be instrumental in securing assets and infrastructures against emerging quantum threats. The successful candidate is a strategic and analytic thinker who also enjoys exploring frontier technologies.

Key Responsibilities

  • Collaborate with a multi-disciplinary team of engineers, researchers, and industry partners to develop and deploy quantum-safe cybersecurity solutions.
  • Conduct simulations and experiments to validate the effectiveness of implemented quantum-safe security technologies.
  • Stay current with advances in quantum cybersecurity technologies, solutions and technologies and related fields to contribute to the implementation of new techniques and methodologies.
  • Prepare technical documentation and present project updates to stakeholders.
  • Collaborate with internal and external teams, industry, and academic partners to develop strategies on protecting emerging quantum security technologies.
  • Work in a cross-functional teams to develop strategy, implementation design and plan for nationwide communications infrastructure solutions.
  • Not Mandatory: If candidate s skill set allows:
    • Support and secure NVIDIA Omniverse platform of APIs, services, and software development kits (SDKs) to enable developers to build generative AI-enabled tools, applications, and services for digitalization workflows.
    • Design and implement post-quantum cryptographic algorithms and protocols to secure communication networks against quantum attacks and develop and integrate quantum key distribution (QKD) systems to enhance the security of data transmission and assess the performance and security of existing cybersecurity solutions and propose enhancements to ensure quantum resilience.

    Requirements

    • At least 2 years of experience working with quantum cybersecurity solutions.
