Senior Quantum Error Correction Researcher

About the role

The Quantum Error Correction (QEC) team at Alice & Bob is tasked with continuously improving the fault-tolerant architecture by finding innovative ways to reduce the need for and cost of fault tolerance, and by helping implement the best solutions. You will also participate in the research and development of Alice & Bob's fault-tolerant quantum computing architecture. Get ready to join a passionate and focused team within an amazing organization dedicated to building a universal and fault-tolerant quantum computer without taking any detours.

As a Senior Quantum Error Correction Researcher, you will participate in the research and development of Alice & Bob's fault-tolerant quantum computing architecture and help implement and deploy the best solutions for our quantum computer.

Responsibilities

• Participate in research and development of Alice & Bob’s fault-tolerant quantum computing architecture.
• Innovate resilient quantum protocols to bridge the gap between theoretical error correction and physical implementation.
• Partner cross-functionally to integrate robust quantum error correction (QEC) protocols into the system architecture.
• Model and interpret experimental fault-tolerant quantum protocols.

Requirements

• 1+ years (post PhD) of research in the field or equivalent experience, publication of academic papers as a lead author, participation in top conferences in QEC, or more generally in quantum information theory or experiment
• A PhD in Quantum Error Correction (QEC), or more generally in quantum information theory or experiment
• Expertise in programing quantum simulation of qubit or bosonic systems
• Professional-level English proficiency, both written and spoken

We're also looking for

• Expertise in bosonic codes
• Solid expertise in tomography and benchmarking
