An NSA Cryptography job involves designing, analyzing, and securing cryptographic systems to protect national security information. Cryptographers at the NSA develop encryption algorithms, assess vulnerabilities, and support cybersecurity efforts. They work with advanced mathematics, computer science, and cryptographic principles to safeguard sensitive communications. These roles require strong analytical skills, a security clearance, and expertise in areas like quantum-resistant encryption or cryptographic engineering.
To thrive in NSA Cryptography roles, you need deep expertise in mathematics, computer science, and cryptographic algorithms, typically supported by an advanced degree in a relevant field. Familiarity with cryptographic libraries, programming languages such as Python, C++, or Java, and security standards is vital, and professional certifications like CISSP or Certified Cryptanalyst can be advantageous. Exceptional problem-solving abilities, analytical thinking, discretion, and teamwork are important soft skills. These skills are critical for developing and analyzing secure communication methods that protect national security interests.
NSA Cryptography professionals are responsible for designing, analyzing, and implementing secure cryptographic systems that protect classified and sensitive information. Day-to-day activities may include researching new cryptographic techniques, assessing the strength of encryption algorithms, and collaborating with interdisciplinary teams of engineers and analysts to integrate secure solutions into government communication systems. You may also participate in vulnerability testing, incident response planning, and the continuous improvement of security protocols. Projects can range from securing military communication to developing cutting-edge encryption tools for national defense. The work is dynamic and often requires creative thinking as well as strict adherence to security protocols.

Job Title
NSA conducts world-class research with the objective of developing new and innovative techniques and technologies to support our Signals Intelligence and Cybersecurity missions, as well as the broader Intelligence Community (IC). We are actively seeking experienced mathematicians or physicists with subject matter expertise in quantum computing or post-quantum cryptography to support NSA's and the US Government's strategic efforts. If you are interested in joining a dynamic team with a proven track record of developing impactful research results, then please apply for this position.
Candidates will be expected to engage with the NSA and US government efforts in these fields, identify important research problems within this space, and conduct research to support NSA and US government goals. Candidates must have research and/or development experience in post-quantum cryptography or quantum computing. Demonstrations of this could include publishing in academic journals or delivering operational solutions to technical problems for customers from government or industry. A PhD is not required, although candidates must have acquired an advanced level of experience and mastery beyond simply taking a few courses. Demonstrated success with effective technical writing and the ability to explain results to a non-technical audience is desirable. Experience with at least one of the following programming languages and/or software packages is desirable: C/C++, Rust, Python, SageMath, MAGMA.
The ideal candidate will have a grounded background in mathematical tools, techniques, and theory, as well as a drive to apply that knowledge to complex and often ambiguous real-world situations. The ideal candidate will also have the ability to prototype and implement solutions in computer code/scripting, and a desire to stretch outside their comfort zone in a career that offers lifelong learning opportunities. While the primary research focus for this position is quantum computing and/or post-quantum cryptography, candidates could also have the option to contribute to other mathematics research efforts of interest to NSA. These efforts involve a wide range of areas of mathematics, including linear algebra, number theory, probability, statistics, analysis, graph theory, or other areas of theoretical mathematics. Other areas of interest include cryptomathematics, algorithm development, computer network security, and vulnerability analysis. Interest in any of these areas is not required, but will be looked upon favorably.
