Roles & Responsibilities

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 FPGA Design and Verification. You will explore the integration and implementation of leading-edge post-quantum secure cryptographic algorithms on FPGA in an application context using a RISC-V processors. You will research design verification of security features such as Side-Channel Analysis (SCA) resistance of post-quantum secure cryptographic algorithms. You will be responsible in a team of IC designers for the verification of a RISC-V and for pre-manufacture testing it on FPGA.

This is a fixed term contract until March 2029.

Key Responsibilities

• Perform FPGA implementation of a post-quantum secure RISC-V processor core.
• Perform functional verification and test of the RISC-V based platform including accelerators for post-quantum secure cryptography.
• Research the design-time verification of hardware-security features such as side-channel analysis resistance considering the use-case of a post-quantum secure RISC-V processor platform.
• Collaborate with experts in IC design and security to enable leading-edge IC design.
• Write scientific manuscripts, contribute to project reports, and present findings at international conferences and stakeholder meetings.
