The Jean-Monnet University (UJM) at Saint-Etienne in France is now seeking excellents candidates for tenure-track (Associate Professor) position starting in november 2025.

This is a special position in France, as it is a first 5-year contract, and if the indicators are met the position automatically becomes that of a Full Professor. For 5 years, the person recruited is only required to carry out 64 hours of teaching per year, with dedicated financial resources. It's a research-oriented position in one of Europe's leading hardware security teams (the SESAM team at Laboratoire Hubert Curien).

The objective of this position is to ensure the long-term security of embedded systems by developing countermeasure mechanisms that can defend against sophisticated attacks at the intersection of software and hardware, starting from the design phase. This will result in new protection concepts being proposed that take into account the evolving cyber threat and the complexity of attack paths that exploit vulnerabilities in both software and hardware.

We are therefore looking for excellent candidates with at least 5 years' post-doctoral experience and an excellent list of scientific contributions and publications in the field of hardware security.

Closing date for applications:
