Jobs

The Department of Computer Science specialized in Applied Cryptography of Prof. Sebastian Faust, PhD, offers several jobs. The positions are funded through EU (European Union), DFG, BMBF and others.

The Applied Cryptography Group at the Department of Computer Science at TU Darmstadt, is seeking for a

Research Assistant (all genders) in Cryptography

starting as soon as possible for the duration of 3 years with the option of extension.

We develop and analyze cryptographic algorithms and protocols and investigate their application in practice. Our current research focus is the development of protocols for distributive cryptography (e.g., threshold signatures, distributed key generation), the design of cryptographic algorithms for blockchain applications (e.g., multi-party computation, off-chain protocols) and the area of leakage resilient cryptography.

We offer:

Research and work in the field of cryptography as part of a dynamic, international team
Publish your research results at leading venues for cryptography and IT Security
Possibility to work on a PhD under close supervision
Attend international conferences, access to excellent facilities and collaboration with international partners (both in academia and industry)

Your profile:

You completed a university MSc study program in Computer Science or Mathematics, or a similar subject
You have a strong background in Cryptography or Theoretical Computer Science
You are fluent in spoken and written English
You are highly motivated to publish your results, present them at international project meetings and conferences
You bring excellent communication skills and enjoy working in interdisciplinary and international teams
