His influence in the field has been recognized through multiple distinctions, including inclusion in Quantum Security 25: The Top 25 Most Influential People in Quantum Security (2026), the 2025 Quantum Leap Award from Keyfactor, and recognition as LinkedIn Top Voice (2024-2025) and Quantum Top Voices (2022–2024). Currently, Jaime serves as the Global Head of the Santander Quantum Threat Program, addressing the transition to a quantum-safe economy. Additionally, he holds the role of Chair of the Europol Quantum Safe Financial Forum, working to facilitate collaboration and coordinate the transition to quantum-safe cryptography within the financial sector.
As the Global Head of Cryptography and the Santander Quantum Threat Program, I spearhead the transition to quantum-safe technologies by raising awareness, fostering collaboration and managing cryptography solutions.
The QSFF initiative is a multi-stakeholder effort to address the transition to Post Quantum Cryptography (PQC) across the financial sector, with a particular focus on Europe. The QSFF aims to: - Drive a coordinated approach to the transition to Post Quantum Cryptography (PQC) in the financial sector. - Create a common assessment of the threat, applicable across the industry. - Identify challenges and best practices. - Discuss potential solutions for the financial sector. - Collaborate with other similar initiatives in support of a global engagement on the topic. - Share knowledge and explore mutual learning and training opportunities. The aim of the QSFF is to share best practices and coordinate actions to address a safe transition to PQC. The QSFF is a safe space where its selected members can collaborate and help each other through this transition, fostering developments and addressing upcoming threats.
Helping QuSide sharpen its product roadmap and strategy around runtime entropy verification as a foundational element of trust infrastructure, anchoring the crypto-agile systems that enterprises are building today.
The XJTLU Center for International Exchange and Collaboration in PQC Migration of Financial Industry (hereinafter referred to as the “Center”) is affiliated with the XJTLU Interdisciplinary Laboratory for Post-Quantum Migration (PQC-X). Leveraging Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University’s (XJTLU) unique advantage of “Bridging East and West,” the Center positions itself as a “Connector and Aggregator for Global Financial PQC Migration.” The Center is committed to building a neutral, open, and cutting-edge international cooperation platform to address common issues faced by countries during post-quantum migration, such as difficulties in standard mutual recognition, differences in technical routes, and the complexity of cross-border data compliance.
