Remote Cryptography Researcher

Summary

The job is for a Cryptography Researcher role, fully-remote and based in EU/UK. The candidate should have experience or strong interest in developing ZK proof systems. The role involves designing cryptography algorithms, circuits for protocols’ state proofs, academic writing, security analysis, and researching related solutions.

Requirements

• MS with major in Applied Math or equivalent experience
• Deep expertise in cryptographic algorithms and primitives
• Peer-reviewed publications in cryptography, distributed systems, proof systems
• Understanding or experience in ZK proof techniques (for example, Groth16, Plonk, STARKs, Marlin)
• The language is English, so you’re supposed to be at least B2 level

Responsibilities

• Developing cryptography algorithms design including proof system design
• Design circuits for protocols’ state proofs for a proof system
• Academic writing
• Security analysis
• Research other solutions related to proof-system//circuits//other cryptography tasks
