I am head of the research group on Computer-Aided Verification of Physical Security Properties (CAVE) hosted at the Faculty of Computer Science, Ruhr-Universität Bochum, Germany. My group is funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG, German Research Foundation) as part of the Emmy Noether Programme.

Before, I worked as a Senior Hardware Security Engineer at the Rambus Cryptography Research Group located in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. I obtained my PhD (Dr.-Ing.) in 2018 on the topic of Cryptographic Hardware Agility for Physical Protection under the supervision of Prof. Dr.-Ing. Tim Güneysu at the Ruhr-Universität Bochum, Germany.

My current research focuses on Hardware Security and Computer-Aided Security Engineering. For this, I work on new concepts and approaches for Hardware Security Verification and Security-Oriented Electronic Design Automation to enable efficient and automated protection of hardware implementations through sophisticated and specialized security-aware design and verification tools.

I am looking for excellent students interested in working on topics related to hardware security and computer-aided security verification.
