Since NIST published its first post-quantum cryptography (PQC) standards, which the PQShield team co-authored, semiconductor companies, OEMs, and system builders across automotive, defense, industrial IoT, networking, and enterprise face a hard and urgent transition. This role puts PQShield at the center of that transition — through the partners who build with our IP, the solutions customers deploy, and the industry relationships that shape how the market moves.
This is a senior role for someone who combines a security IP background with deep industry relationships, and who knows how to turn both into revenue.
