Research Intern
Atom Computing · Berkeley, CA · Posted 22 days ago
Shape the future of fault-tolerant quantum computing by developing error correction strategies on actual neutral-atom quantum hardware.
We are seeking a research intern to contribute to the architecture and strategy of error correction on neutral atom quantum computers. Atomic qubit arrays provide a path to the large-scale quantum computers that will deliver fault-tolerant, error-corrected logical qubits.
You will work with our Quantum Error Correction team to tackle targeted research questions related to fault-tolerant quantum computing using neutral-atom hardware. We are specifically seeking candidates with expertise in the following areas:
- Applications of machine learning/AI for quantum computing
- QEC codes and fault-tolerant logic
- Magic state production
- Synthesis and compilation of fault-tolerant algorithms
- Design, simulation, and execution of fault-tolerant protocols
• Contribute to new and ongoing research projects at Atom Computing, particularly those related to quantum error correction and fault tolerance.
Experience & Education
- Currently pursuing a PhD in Physics, Mathematics, Computer Science, or a related field.
- Experience with quantum error correction theory or experiment.
- Willingness to translate concepts into demonstrations running on actual quantum computing hardware.
- Familiarity with Python and Git software version control
- Temperamentally suited to work at a fast-growing startup: self-motivated, humble, driven, and collaborative.
- Ability to effectively communicate and collaborate with a diverse team of experimental physicists, hardware, and software engineers.
