We are now looking for a Senior System Security Architect PQC & Emerging Technologies! we are seeking an outstanding security architect with deep expertise in post-quantum cryptography (PQC) and quantum-resilient security technologies to help design, validate, and guide secure architecture across our next-generation products. The candidate is expected to: define problems & deliver highly innovative solutions that lead to significant differentiation in the industry, translate customer needs into architectural, technical & strategic direction, and help achieve the long-range goals of the Security organization. Leaders in this role will strengthen our companys Data Center and networking products against quantum-era threats while driving adoption of future-proof security technologies.
What Youll Be Doing:
Lead the innovation, design and integration of PQC algorithms and protocols across our company networking, compute, and system solutions.
Evaluate and guide the use of quantum technologies for security (e.g., quantum-safe protocols, quantum key distribution, quantum hardware accelerators).
Work with technical and senior leadership to turn quantum-resilient strategies into secure, scalable implementations.
Collaborate across multiple business units and development groups to ensure robust protection from early design through deployment.
Build and showcase proofs of concept (PoCs) for PQC and emerging cryptographic solutions.
Provide strategic and tactical guidance on cryptography, secure system design, and architectures resilient to future quantum threats.
Represent our company in industry and academic initiatives to influence PQC standards, champion collaborations, and drive thought leadership in quantum-resilient security.
Requirements: BS/MS/Ph.D. in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related technical field (or equivalent experience).
5+ years of experience in the security industry, with focus on system-level products spanning HW, FW, and SW.
Strong background in cryptography and security protocols, including Post-Quantum Cryptography (NIST PQC algorithms, TLS/IPsec integration, PKI migration) and emerging technologies like QKD, QRNG, secure enclaves, and quantum acceleration.
Solid understanding of Root of Trust (RoT) technologies, SoC architecture, and cryptographic acceleration.
Deep knowledge of networking and distributed system security protocols, with awareness of AI and other emerging technologies in system security.
Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with ability to collaborate across multiple groups and influence technical direction.
Ways To Stand Out From The Crowd:
Proven experience implementing or deploying PQC algorithms in real systems.
Research or contributions to quantum security technologies (QKD, quantum RNG, hybrid classical/quantum protocols).
Active participation in global PQC standardization, industry consortia, or academic collaborations, demonstrating leadership in shaping the future of quantum-resilient security.
Experience engaging with customers, industry, and regulators on cryptography transitions and quantum-resilient roadmaps.
This position is open to all candidates.
