The Role
We are looking for a motivated Computer Science engineering student to join our team as a Student Intern for a 6‑month internship. The intern will primarily focus on evaluating and experimenting with open-source models and tools in the areas of quantum computing, cryptography, and crypto/quantum-related asset discovery.
This internship is designed to provide hands-on exposure to cutting-edge research, model evaluation, and practical experimentation at the intersection of emerging computation paradigms and security technologies.
Key Responsibilities:
- Research, evaluate, and benchmark open-source models, frameworks, and libraries related to:
- Quantum computing
- Cryptography and post-quantum cryptography
- Crypto/quantum asset discovery and analysis
- Analyze model capabilities, limitations, performance, and applicability to real-world scenarios.
- Build proofs of concept (PoCs) and small experiments to validate findings.
- Compare multiple approaches and document insights, trade-offs, and recommendations.
- Collaborate with senior engineers and researchers to review results and refine evaluation criteria.
- Produce transparent technical documentation, summaries, and presentations of findings.
- Stay updated with relevant academic papers, open-source communities, and emerging trends.
