Ishu Dev
@ishudev
Mathematics graduate specializing in quantum computing and applied cryptography.
What I'm looking for
I am a mathematics-focused researcher and developer skilled in quantum computing, cryptography, and Python-based implementations. I have implemented and benchmarked quantum algorithms (Shor, Grover) in Qiskit, developed RSA-OAEP and classic-cipher tooling, and linked theoretical number theory to practical cryptographic considerations.
My work combines rigorous mathematical foundations with reproducible software: I benchmarked quantum vs classical methods, evaluated PQC and QKD protocols, and deployed interactive Streamlit demos for education and demonstration. I seek roles where I can apply cryptographic research, quantum algorithm development, and secure software implementation to real-world systems.
