National Integrated Centre for Evaluation (NiCE) @ NTU is a collaboration between Cyber Security Agency of Singapore (CSA) and NTU. Strategically located in NTU to leverage on their knowledge, expertise and experience in software and hardware assurance, NiCE will be a one-stop facility for product testing, inspection and evaluation.

In this opening, we are looking for a Research Fellow to conduct secure and reliable research on microchips used in quantum key distribution (QKD) systems. The researcher will focus on investigating and identifying potential hardware-level security vulnerabilities and exploring innovative, attack-resistant design solutions.

Key Responsibilities:

Conduct hardware security analysis of microchips, with a focus on potential attack approaches such as laser probing.

Investigate and explore emerging, innovative attack techniques for hardware security evaluation.

Build testing environments and perform rigorous physical security evaluations (e.g., laser probing, e-beam probing) to assess real-world security performance.

Study potential protective mechanisms and collaborate closely with teams in QKD system design, photonic design, and electronics development to integrate security features into the overall QKD system architecture.

Job Requirements:

PhD degree in Electronic & Electrical Engineering, Physics, Microelectronics, or related field.

Hands-on experience in hardware security evaluation and analysis.

Ability to independently operate lab instruments (e.g., oscilloscopes, lasers) for security testing and data analysis.

Proficiency with tools such as Python, MATLAB, or C++ for modeling, simulation, and automated test script development.

Basic knowledge of mainstream QKD hardware is preferred.

Good written and oral communication skills.

Strong communication and teamwork skills, with the ability to work effectively in a multidisciplinary environment.

We regret to inform that only shortlisted candidates will be notified.
