Description

  • Research, design, and evaluate quantum-resistant cryptographic solutions, including post-quantum cryptography algorithms and quantum-safe security standards.
  • Assess enterprise systems, applications, protocols, and cryptographic implementations for vulnerabilities related to current and future quantum threats.
  • Design and implement cryptographic modernization and migration strategies from traditional public-key cryptography to quantum-resistant algorithms.
  • Develop, prototype, test, and optimize cryptographic algorithms, libraries, APIs, and security components for enterprise integration.
  • Evaluate and implement NIST-standardized post-quantum cryptographic algorithms, including key establishment and digital signature mechanisms.
  • Perform cryptographic testing, security analysis, performance benchmarking, and interoperability testing to validate implementations.
  • Develop crypto-agility architectures that support rapid replacement or updates to cryptographic algorithms, protocols, certificates, and keys.
  • Support integration of quantum-safe cryptography with PKI, identity management, TLS, VPNs, cloud platforms, network security systems, applications, and data-protection technologies.
  • Collaborate with cybersecurity architects, software engineers, researchers, and system owners to translate quantum-security requirements into technical solutions and standards.
  • Produce technical documentation, architecture guidance, migration roadmaps, cryptographic inventories, risk assessments, and readiness recommendations.

Requirements

  • Minimum of 10 years of IT experience, including at least 5 years in quantum computing and cryptography experience at a large corporation or government agency of comparable size/scope to GSA, IRS, DoD, or VA.
  • A master’s degree in a related IT field may substitute for up to 2 years of required experience.
  • Expertise in quantum mechanics, quantum algorithms such as Shor’s algorithm and Grover’s algorithm, and quantum information theory.
  • Expertise in quantum programming languages and frameworks such as Qiskit, Cirq, Quipper, and Microsoft Quantum Development Kit.
  • Expertise in cryptographic protocols such as RSA and AES, and principles of public-key infrastructure (PKI).
  • Expertise in post-quantum cryptography and quantum-resistant algorithms.
  • Expertise in cryptographic standards and frameworks such as NIST and ISO/IEC 19790.
  • Proficiency in Python, C++, and Java for implementing and testing cryptographic algorithms.
  • Expertise with classical and quantum simulation tools.
  • Experience advising on quantum-resistant migration plans and PQC implementation strategies.
  • Experience assessing cryptographic inventories and identifying migration priorities.
  • Experience communicating quantum risk to non-technical leadership through cross-functional collaboration.
  • Experience providing policy and guidance inputs for cryptographic modernization aligned with NIST PQC standards (FIPS 203, 204, 205).
  • Experience working in a project-oriented environment with an understanding of configuration management in the project lifecycle at a large corporation or government agency.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration, Business Management, Cybersecurity, Computer Science, Information Systems, Information Assurance, Information Security, Information Resource Management, or a related field.
  • Certification in one or more of the following: IAT III, IAM III, or IASAE III.

Benefits

  • Competitive salary, paid twice per month.
  • Best-in-class medical coverage with 100% of medical premiums covered by True Zero.
  • Company-wide new business incentive programs.
  • Contribution incentives for white papers, blog posts, internal webinars, and similar contributions.
  • Three weeks of PTO starting plus 11 paid holidays annually.
  • 401(k) program with 100% company match on the first 4%.
  • Monthly reimbursement for cell phone and home internet costs.
  • Parental leave for maternity and paternity.
  • Investment in training and certifications to broaden and deepen technical skills.
