Post-quantum cryptography and crypto-agility management platform
CryptoNext Security builds software to help organizations transition to quantum-resistant cryptography and manage cryptographic risk across their infrastructure. The stack—mbedTLS, Kafka, PostgreSQL, Elasticsearch, and Kubernetes—reflects a data-intensive observability platform (Compass) designed to ingest, track, and govern cryptographic assets at scale. Hiring is engineering-heavy (7 of 11 open roles) with senior/lead distribution, suggesting they're scaling both product depth and deployment complexity in finance, defense, and industrial sectors.

CryptoNext Security develops post-quantum cryptography and crypto-agility software for organizations navigating quantum threat preparedness. Founded in 2019, the company serves finance, defense, industrial, and public sector clients with solutions that map, migrate, and govern cryptographic systems as threat landscapes evolve. The product portfolio centers on Compass, an observability platform that tracks cryptographic assets and enables real-time analytics on data ingestion pipelines. The company operates from Paris with 11–50 employees and focuses on both commercial pilots and long-term compliance enablement for major clients and system integrators.
mbedTLS, Kafka, PostgreSQL, Elasticsearch, Node.js, React, TypeScript, Docker, Kubernetes, gRPC, AWS, GCP, Azure, and Python. The stack emphasizes high-throughput data pipelines (Kafka, Logstash) and observability (Elasticsearch, Kibana).
Primary projects include the Compass observability platform, post-quantum transition planning and pilots, data backbone infrastructure, a discovery platform, React UI development for PQC products, REST API integrations, and probe appliance ownership for cryptographic asset monitoring.
