Role Description
PQShield is looking for a Hardware Engineering Manager to lead and oversee the development of next-generation hardware solutions tailored for Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC). In this role, you will manage a team of engineers working on the design, development, and implementation of secure and efficient cryptographic IP for semiconductor companies and secure communications.
- Manage and mentor a team of hardware engineers, ASIC/FPGA designers, and hardware security specialists.
- Oversee day-to-day execution of hardware development projects, ensuring delivery on schedule and quality standards.
- Foster a culture of technical excellence and continuous learning within the team.
- Drive the design and implementation of cryptographic hardware accelerators, processors, and secure IP blocks optimized for PQC algorithms.
- Support the development of hardware for use cases such as Root of Trust, secure boot, secure key management, and remote attestation.
- Ensure that hardware solutions align with security, performance, and power efficiency requirements across applications such as IoT, automotive, and data centers.
- Work with Project Managers to track progress, identify risks, and ensure project milestones are met.
- Coordinate cross-functional teams, including cryptographers and software engineers, to ensure smooth integration of hardware and cryptographic solutions.
- Implement rigorous testing and verification methodologies, including simulations and emulated real-world use case testing of hardware designs.
- Collaborate with the software and cryptography teams to ensure efficient hardware-software co-design for PQC implementations.
- Communicate technical progress and project status effectively to leadership, product management, and engineering teams.
- Ensure hardware security implementations meet industry standards and regulatory requirements for post-quantum cryptography.
- Maintain best practices in secure hardware design, including resistance to side-channel attacks, secure key storage, and cryptographic agility.
Qualifications
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electronic/Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field with a focus on cryptography or cybersecurity.
- 7+ years of hardware design IP experience, with at least 3+ years in a leadership or managerial role.
- Knowledge of hardware security, cryptographic hardware implementations (e.g., RSA, ECC, AES), and post-quantum cryptography.
- Experience in ASIC/FPGA design and validation, including knowledge of SystemVerilog, Verilog or VHDL.
- Hands-on experience in bringing secure hardware products from design to implementation.
Requirements
- Knowledge with hardware development tools and EDA software (e.g., Cadence, Synopsys, Mentor Graphics).
- Knowledge of cryptographic algorithms, protocols, and key management systems. Familiarity with PQC standards and protocols (e.g., NIST PQC).
- Knowledge of implementing secure hardware architectures and understanding security threats such as side-channel attacks.
- Knowledge of secure embedded systems, IoT security, and trusted execution environments.
- Exposure to secure hardware solutions such as HSMs, TPMs, and secure enclaves. Understanding of security features such as secure boot, key management, and cryptographic countermeasures.
Benefits
- Unparalleled opportunities to learn and accelerated career development.
- A collaborative, team environment with people who truly love what they do.
- Competitive salary and share option scheme.
- Flexible and hybrid working, and a working from home budget.
- Private health insurance for yourself and your family.
- 25 days annual leave (plus bank holidays and two wellness weeks).
- 50% gym membership discount.
