Job Description
Who We Are
CryptoNext Security is a start-up based in Paris, founded in 2019, following more than 20 years of academic research.
We specialize in quantum computer-resistant cryptography (PQC: post-quantum cryptography) and offer our "Quantum Safe Remediation Suite" software suite, including our world-renowned Quantum Safe Library (C-QSL) featuring the latest NIST algorithms. Our solutions help enterprises and integrators transition to the post-quantum cybersecurity era.
Recognized as a leader in post-quantum cryptography, CryptoNext was highlighted in Gartner's 2021 report and received the Innovation Prize at "Les Assises 2022." A proud member of Campus Cyber, Hexatrust, and Systematic, we are also collaborators with the US National Cryptography Center of Excellence (NCCoE).
At CryptoNext, we are a close-knit team driven by innovation, trust, and a shared commitment to solving complex challenges.

- Continuously enhance testing methodologies, tools, and automation for better outcomes.
You will focus on products such as:
- Quantum Safe Library: A cryptographic library featuring quantum-resistant algorithms.
- HSMs and Cryptographic Providers: Integrating cryptography into secure hardware.
- Discovery Tool: Detecting and inventorying cryptographic protocols across networks.
- Proxy TLS: Enhancing encrypted data transmission for quantum-resistant environments.
The Skills You Will Demonstrate
Required Technical Skills
Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities.
Excellent organizational and time-management skills.
Clear communication of technical concepts in both English and French.
The Team You'll Join
You will join our innovative R&D team, a group of experts passionate about developing quantum-safe cryptography solutions. Collaborating closely with developers and cryptography experts, you will contribute to groundbreaking technologies that protect sensitive data in a post-quantum era.
Benefits
Work Environment: A hybrid work model based in Paris, providing flexibility and collaboration opportunities.
Employment Terms: Full-time permanent contract (CDI) under French law.
Compensation: Competitive salary commensurate with experience.
Growth and Impact: Join a pioneering team at the forefront of cybersecurity innovation, making a tangible impact on global cryptographic security.
