The internship is centered around FPGA development for homomorphic encryption. The candidate will work on optimising a component of this library and analyse its design trade-offs. The goal of the internship is to gain more familiarity with the FPGA design flow, and apply your knowledge to a real-world product. The intern will be advised by a tech lead with academic and industry experience, who will help her/him choose a topic to focus on during the internship. The applicant will learn strategies for optimising cryptographic hardware components, obtain a deep understanding of various FPGA design flows and develop strong reporting skills.
