Job Description:
The Cryptography group at IBM Research in Zurich is looking to hire a Ph.D. student to work on constructions and applications of lattice-based zero knowledge proofs. The group is one of the world leaders in quantum-safe cryptography research and has significantly contributed to all three lattice-based NIST quantum-safe standards. Our current research emphasis is on practical zero-knowledge proofs based on the same foundations and their application to privacy-based cryptography, where the results look very promising. A motivated researcher should find this to be a very exciting and fast-moving environment to work in. The ideal candidate is someone who has strong industrial development experience (preferably, but not necessarily, working on some aspect of zero-knowledge proofs or lattice cryptography) and would like to get into the research field by gaining an in-depth understanding of lattice-based cryptography and applying it to designing and deploying practical privacy-based protocols. Strong mathematical foundations and some experience with cryptography is desirable. Zurich is consistently ranked as one of the top cities for living standards and the immediate proximity of lakes and mountains to the lab allows for the pursuit of numerous hobbies.
