Opportunities in Singapore
Join Our QUASAR Research Team at TUMCREATE – Pushing the Frontiers of Quantum‑Safe Security!
We are delighted to share exciting opportunities to join our multidisciplinary research team at TUMCREATE, working on the QUASAR (Quantum Security and Resilience for Emerging Technologies) programme. Funded by the Singapore National Research Foundation, QUASAR brings together world‑class researchers from Technical University of Munich (TUM), Fraunhofer Singapore, Nanyang Technological University (NTU) and the National University of Singapore (NUS) to develop quantum‑safe computing and security technologies. As part of this flagship effort, we are building an open, verifiable, and quantum‑safe RISC‑V processor platform, bringing together post‑quantum cryptography, secure system design, hardware security, and verification to strengthen the resilience of future digital systems.
We are now recruiting talented Research Fellows, Research Associates and Research Engineers across multiple themes including side‑channel security, secure operating systems, secure hardware design, secure FPGA design & verification, and hardware‑intrinsic security. If you are passionate about cutting‑edge research in post‑quantum security, secure system design, and hardware/software co‑design, we would love to hear from you!
