Job Description

• Provide technical leadership in development of next generation cryptography systems – which are robust, efficient and easy to use.
• Provide leadership for organizational cybersecurity architecture meeting organizational and regulatory requirements.
• Design and implement cryptographic solutions based on quantum resistant algorithms and protocols as a reusable blocks for usage in applications with minimum efforts.
• Develop deeper understanding of PQC algorithms and their implications in protocols and applications to architect, design and implement business solutions across IT and OT systems.
• Develop methods, tools and framework to efficiently explore and experiment with PQC algorithms.
• Develop PoCs demonstrating the functionality, performance and testing of PQC and related protocols in business applications.  Develop systems for benchmarking PQC and hybrid algorithms in such applications / use cases.
• Prepare thought leadership through white papers, technical papers, articles, blogs etc.
   

Primary Skills

• Deep understanding and experience with cryptography technologies, primitives, algorithms, PKI systems and certificates.
• Hands-on experience with security protocols (OpenSSL, VPN, TLS , IPSec. Etc.), Expertise in cryptography technologies, 
• Experience with Linux systems, scripting, network performance analysis, cryptography performance benchmarking and debugging capabilities.
• Proficiency with multiple programming languages -  C/C++, Java, Python and any other relevant programming languages.
• Exposure to post quantum cryptography algorithms and their implementations.
• Good understanding of cloud platforms and cloud data protection and key management aspects on any/all the leading cloud platforms (AWS, Azure and GCP).
• Experience with modern software development lifecycle methodologies.
   

Secondary Skills

• Experience with implementations (open source or commercial) of algorithms, protocols and applications with quantum resistant algorithms
• Experience with tools (benchmarking, testing, debugging,..) and frameworks with PQC and their hybrid variants.
• Familiarity with security related standards and certifications (NIST, IETF, FIPS 140-2/3 etc..)
• Understanding of advanced security/cryptography topics like Zero Trust, SDP, secure multiparty computation, zero-knowledge or homomorphic encryption
• Some experience/understanding of threat modelling and analysis of cryptographic systems, side channel attacks, other similar attacks and, associated measures to counter such threats.
