Research Fellow / Research Associate / Research Engineer(Hardware-Intrinsic Security)

About

TUMCREATE

TUMCREATE is a

multidisciplinary research platform of the Technical University

Munich (TUM) at the Singapore Campus for Research Excellence and

Technological Enterprise (CREATE). We are joining forces with

universities, public agencies, and industry for the advancement of

future technologies.

Our research program on

post-quantum Security, 'QUASAR - QUANTUM SECURITY AND RESILIENCE

FOR EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES' funded by Singapore's National Research

Foundation (NRF), is a collaborative effort between the Technical

University Munich (TUM), Fraunhofer Singapore, Nanyang

Technological University (NTU), the National University of

Singapore (NUS). At TUMCREATE, we will focus on developing an open

and verifiable Quantum safe RISC-V processor platform as a

foundation for the QUASAR program.

As part of

the QUASAR team, you will work alongside renowned scientists in

Integrated Circuit (IC) design, security, and quantum

technologies.

Job

Summary

We are seeking a highly

motivated and skilled researcher in Secure Hardware Design. You

will research leading-edge True Random Number Generator (TRNG) and

Physical Unclonable Function (PUF) solutions in the context of post

quantum security applications, especially dedicated to a RISC-V

processors. You will investigate and provide advanced designs and

algorithms for PUF-based key-storage and authentication solutions

and accelerators to provide randomness to an open-source

post-quantum secure system. You will be responsible for the

physical design and the integration of analog components in a team

for IC design of an RISC-V processor.

This is a

fixed term contract until March

2029.

Key

Responsibilities

Research and provide TRNG and PUF solutions for an

open-source RISC-V processor.

Research and

perform backend design using open-source tools, especially for the

design of an open-source post-quantum secure RISC-V

processor.

Collaborate with experts in design

automation, IC design, and security to enable leading-edge

hardware-intrinsic security solutions and IC design.

Write scientific manuscripts, contribute to project

reports, and present findings at international conferences and

stakeholder

meetings.

Key

Competencies

Proven

expertise in hardware security and / or analog design and / or digital

design and / or physical IC design.

Excellent

written and verbal communication skills in English, with the

ability to communicate complex analytical results to

multidisciplinary teams.

Demonstrated ability

to work independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced,

international research

environment.

Qualification

Requirements

We are seeking for

candidates with a

Bachelor's degree

in electrical engineering or related fields with at least two years

of experience in physical IC design or analog circuit design,

or

Master's degree in electrical engineering

or related fields with focus on hardware security, digital circuit

design or analog circuit design, or

PhD degree

related to hardware security, embedded security, embedded systems

or circuit design.

Candidates expecting to

fulfil one of these requirements within 2 months after application

are welcome to apply.

Publications in the

domain of TRNGs or PUFs at premier conferences and in premier

journals are considered a strong

asset.

What

we offer

collaborative and inclusive world-class research

environment.

Opportunities for scientific

leadership for research fellows.

The

opportunity to pursue a PhD (awarded by the Technical University of

Munich) for research associates with a master's degree.

• Opportunities for professional development.

Engagement with a leading international team addressing

challenges in IC design for post-quantum

security.
