The work will also study transient execution attacks, where a processor may briefly compute on secret data and leave traces that an attacker can observe.

The candidate will design new testing methods, build research prototypes, evaluate them on open processor designs, and publish the results in leading security and systems venues. The candidate will also help mentor PhD students, contribute to research planning, and support collaborations with academic and industry partners.

Qualifications

• The candidate should have a PhD in computer security, computer architecture, systems, or a closely related area.
• Strong experience with processor testing, hardware security, or fuzzing is expected.
• The candidate should be comfortable reading processor designs and working with simulation tools.
• Programming ability is important, especially for building research systems that can run at scale.
• The role also requires the ability to explain technical work clearly to people with different backgrounds. 
• The candidate should be able to turn a research idea into a working prototype, compare it fairly with prior methods, and write papers that make the contribution easy to understand.
• A strong record of top-tier publications is necessary.

“We create environments of stellar quality, guiding the manifestation of dreams through inventive craftsmanship, supported by a global network of exceptional artisans, fabricators and collaborators.”

ROLE OVERVIEW

WeCraft is rebuilding its design bench, and this is the anchor architectural hire. We are seeking a Senior Architectural Designer who can both lead design and technical authorship and act as Project Architect on site — taking architectural delivery off the founders across the studio’s live and upcoming projects. You will work closely with, and to the architectural direction of, the Principal Architect, interpreting and extending WeCraft’s design language and design standards while exercising sound independent judgement.

You will lead architectural documentation from concept through construction, set and uphold the studio’s drawing and BIM standards, coordinate consultants, and — critically — go to site to check built work against the drawings, resolve construction queries and protect design integrity through implementation. You will be the senior point of architectural quality in Singapore and a mentor to our growing offshore technical-design bench.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

—  Lead the architectural and interior-architectural documentation of projects from concept and design development through construction-ready and for-fabrication sets, to WeCraft’s drawing and quality standards.

—  Act as Project Architect on site: conduct site visits and inspections, check build quality and workmanship against the design drawings, resolve site queries, and safeguard design integrity through construction.

—  Sound knowledge of Singapore building codes and the submission landscape (BCA, URA, SCDF) and of consultant coordination.

—  Proven ability to set standards, supervise teams (including remote staff) and uphold quality.

—  Eligible to work in Singapore (Citizen / PR, or eligible for a valid work pass).

TECHNICAL & SOFTWARE PROFICIENCY

Expert in Revit (able to set and maintain BIM and documentation standards), with Rhino, Enscape / V-Ray, AutoCAD and Adobe Creative Suite. SketchUp and ArchiCAD exposure welcome.

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE (FIRST 6–12 MONTHS)

—  Sets and upholds the technical and design quality bar across multiple live projects with minimal founder rework.

—  Trusted to lead consultant and authority coordination and to sign off documentation.

—  Built a dependable site-coordination rhythm that protects design intent through construction.

—  Visibly raises the capability of the offshore technical bench through direction and standards.

COMPENSATION

SGD 6,000 – 8,000 per month, commensurate with experience and portfolio, plus a discretionary performance bonus subject to individual and company performance.

The full benefits and overall compensation package is discussed with the selected candidate.

WHAT WE LOOK FOR

Beyond technical skill, we hire for attitude. The people who thrive at WeCraft are:

—  Hungry — driven, proactive and eager to grow; you take ownership and push work forward rather than wait to be told.
