Are you good at explaining complex technical details? Do you thrive when security at its highest standards is required? Do you challenge the status quo, and courageously explore new paths? Then we have a great opportunity for you here at Infineon.

In your new role you will:

• take on the challenging role of being a security evaluator of our high security solutions.
• drive weakness analysis of security concepts and implementations both related to attack on hardware as well as on software.
• conduct code reviews of secure software, with the aim of identifying vulnerabilities. Your experience and knowledge will help to define adequate counter-measures.
• be working in our well-equipped security lab to setup attack together with specialist in semi invasive and side-channel attacks.

You are committed to high quality standards for yourself (‘zero defect’) and continuously try to learn from successes and mistakes.

You are best equipped for this task if you have:

• A degree in electrical engineering, computer science or similar, preferably in the area of IT-security.
• Ideally more than 5 years of professional experience.
• Experience in the world of hardware and software penetration testing.
• Experience in side channel and fault attacks against cryptographic services in embedded devices (both practical testing and mathematical evaluation).
• Experience in various programming languages (Java, C, and Assembler).
• Experience in secure programming and corresponding code review, ideally with 32bit ARM core implementation.
• Experience in working with external evaluation facilities is highly beneficial but not mandatory.
• Fluent English skills, German is beneficial.
