🚀 Research positions are open in Secure Quantum Technologies within the SecQDevOps initiative at Hellenic Mediterranean University in Greece, with hybrid collaboration possible. The team is seeking PhD candidates and post-doctoral researchers interested in secure-by-design quantum software engineering, quantum DevSecOps, trustworthy hybrid quantum-classical infrastructures, and related topics. Research areas include: quantum MLOps, Internet of Quantum Things (IoQT), post-quantum cryptography (PQC), quantum software engineering, secure distributed quantum systems, hybrid quantum-classical infrastructures, AI-driven security for quantum systems, and DevSecOps / secure CI/CD for quantum applications. Potential work topics: secure quantum software lifecycle management, trustworthy AI pipelines, distributed IoQT infrastructures, post-quantum secure communications, quantum-aware DevSecOps frameworks, hardware-aware secure quantum compilation, AI-assisted vulnerability analysis, self-healing quantum systems, and continuous compliance/certification for quantum software. Ideal background: quantum computing and hybrid quantum workflows, AI/ML/MLOps, cybersecurity and DevSecOps, distributed systems and cloud-native infrastructures, cryptography and PQC, quantum networking and secure communications, and Kubernetes/CI/CD/observability/automation. Prior research project experience and publications are especially valued. How to apply: email your CV, a short research statement/interests, and selected publications and/or GitHub/profile links to [email protected] . Location: Greece / Hybrid Collaboration. The post mentions international research collaboration within European R&D ecosystems and Horizon Europe initiatives, but does not specify funding, stipend, or deadline.
