Research Electrical Engineer - Semiconductor Device Physics, Hardware Security

Overview

SRI International's Advanced Technology and Systems Division (ATSD) conducts innovative research and development in a wide range of disciplines, from hardware security and mixed-signal integrated circuits to novel optoelectronic materials and quantum sensing. We are attacking leading-edge challenges by inventing new technologies, developing prototypes, and constructing fieldable systems. Our work extends from basic scientific exploration to applications vital for national security. For example, in our DARPA SHIELD program we developed and demonstrated a system for protecting military electronic systems from the threat of counterfeit components using a hardware-based solution that combined a custom CMOS ASIC implementing 256-bit AES encryption, dual-channel microwave interrogator hardware communicating with the IC’s on-chip antennas, and a secure database stored on cloud-based servers. 

Our SRI campus in Princeton NJ has an immediate openi...
