Interns Group, Interns Group > Interim Intern

General Summary:

Brief:

The goal of the internship is to co-design hardware and firmware for post-quantum cryptography primitives. The process begins with a literature review of the chosen algorithm, followed by the development of efficient hardware and firmware implementations.

Background:

A world leader in smart mobile technologies, QUALCOMM (QCT) offers complete solutions that enable continuous innovation for today's smart connected devices. Our vast expertise in wireless technology, combined with our unique systems’ approach to developing solutions, puts QCT at the forefront of the rapidly expanding mobile industry. QCT offers solutions for CDMA, UMTS, GSM and LTE technologies, providing support for 3G, 4G and 5G networks and devices. Qualcomm also offers a broad portfolio of additional wired and wireless technologies for the mobile, networking, computing and consumer electronics product segments. All our solutions and products are elegantly engineered for optimal performance and power consumption. Our system-on-chip solutions like Snapdragon bring together CPU, GPU, connectivity, security, multimedia and GPS technologies in a way that is redefining mobile possibilities for people everywhere. Because of its unsurpassed performance and capabilities, Snapdragon is enhancing mobile experience and fueling an ever-expanding array of new connected device categories, ranging from smartphones to tablets to e-readers and beyond.

Cryptography is crucial for privacy and security in our digital world, protecting sensitive information and ensuring trust. Crucially, with quantum computing, traditional methods may become obsolete, but PQC ensures security infrastructure remains secure.

Implementation security is vital, as even robust algorithms can be compromised if not implemented securely. The aim of this internship is to work on such implementations, on innovative HW/SW platforms, composed of CPU cores and HW accelerators, and to optimize them according to various criteria, but also secure them against diverse attackers.

Successful candidates will have a unique opportunity to work on high-level modelling of HW/SW platforms using the Python language, writing secure firmware in C or assembly, and building prototypes on FPGAs using VHDL or Verilog hardware description languages.

Required qualifications:

• Pursuing MS/PhD or engineering program in Applied Mathematics, Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or related fields,

• Knowledge in cryptography,

• Proficiency in one or more developer skills: C, ASM, Python, Git.

Preferred qualifications:

• Experience in cryptography and side-channel attacks,

• Embedded software development experience,

• CPU architecture,

• Knowledge in SoC/IP designs, RTL Coding and Validation using High-level tools,

• FPGA or Virtual Platform prototyping,

• Excellent problem solving, self-driven and able to work with minimum supervision,

• Proficiency in one or more developer skills: Verilog, System Verilog, Cadence, Synopsys (DC, PTSI, CDC), Mentor Graphic, Matlab, Bash.

Location:

Qualcomm France S.A.R.L.; 1240 Route des Dolines; Buropolis 3; Valbonne Sophia-Antipolis, 06560 (France)

Duration:

6 months

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
