QKD Test Development Engineer

3 months ago


Kongens Lyngby, Lyngby-Tårbæk Kommune, Denmark Danmarks Tekniske Universitet Full time

Quantum key distribution (QKD) is a secure communication method that leverages the principles of quantum mechanics to generate and distribute cryptographic keys. Unlike classical encryption methods, QKD provides future-proof security by allowing two parties to create a shared random secret key known only to them. This key can then be used for encrypting and decrypting messages, ensuring that eavesdroppers cannot gain knowledge of the key. The unique property of QKD lies in its ability to detect any third party attempting to intercept the key, thanks to the fundamental disturbance caused by quantum measurements. However, implementation side-channels can still be exploited to obtain knowledge on the key and QKD systems therefore have to be tested for their vulnerability to known side-channel attacks.

Within this position you will develop tests for implementation side-channels of QKD systems. Furthermore, you will support field demonstrations of QKD.

The position will be hosted by the Section of Quantum Physics and Information Technology (QPIT) at the Department of Physics of the Technical University of Denmark (DTU). We are a dynamic, innovative and diverse research team focused on all aspects of CV-QKD. Our team is passionate about advancing secure communication methods based on quantum physics and bringing quantum key distribution to the people. We have a wide range of academic and industry collaborations, e.g. as part of the EU Flagship on quantum technology and the European Quantum Communication Infrastructure.

The job

We are looking for a highly motivated candidate who will develop tests of implementation side-channels for continuous-variable and discrete-variable QKD systems and transfer them to our partners. Furthermore, your responsibility will be to support our team in field deployment of QKD systems and operation of field trials with external stakeholders.

Our expectations of you

You have a passion for quantum key distribution, having expertise in

the modulation leakage side-channel of continuous-variable QKD systems
side-channels through detection efficiency mismatch in discrete-variable QKD systems
implementation of use-case demonstrations of QKD in the field
python programming

What we offer in return

We offer a diverse and multidisciplinary working environment with flexible working times in a highly motivated team that strives to push the frontier of quantum technology research.

DTU is a leading technical university globally recognized for the excellence of its research, education, innovation and scientific advice. We offer a rewarding and challenging job in an international environment. We strive for academic excellence in an environment characterized by collegial respect and academic freedom tempered by responsibility.

Salary and appointment terms

The appointment will be based on the collective agreement with the Danish Confederation of Professional Associations. The allowance will be agreed upon with the relevant union.

The position is a part-time position (14.8 hours per week). The period of employment is 2 years. Starting date is 1 October 2024.
