• Collaborate with internal teams (product management, engineering) and external partners to define feature and performance requirements.
• Deliver timely releases of the cuPQC SDK with well-documented APIs and software interfaces;
• Ensure code quality through modern software practices including CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, and code reviews.
• Stay updated on cryptography and PQC standards, integrating new algorithms and optimizations as needed.

Qualifications:

• PhD or MSc in Applied Mathematics, Computer Science, or related field preferred, or equivalent experience.
• 5+ years of experience in designing and developing cryptography software for low-latency or high-throughput environments;
• Strong foundation in mathematics and cryptographic algorithms, including lattice-based cryptography and finite field arithmetic.
• Advanced C++ skills, including modern design paradigms such as template meta-programming, SFINAE, RAII, and constexpr.
• Strong collaboration, communication, and documentation skills;
• Experience with GPU computing (CUDA C++) and automation tools for building and testing software is a plus.

Benefits and Instructions:

• Base salary ranges from $184,000–$356,500 depending on level, experience, and location, plus equity and benefits.
