Quantum Hardware Physicist – Trapped-Ion Qubits

Parity Quantum Computing GmbH

What we do

At ParityQC, we are shaping the future of quantum computing as the world’s leading Quantum Architecture Company. We have pioneered a fundamentally new approach to solving complex industry challenges and are developing blueprints for quantum computers alongside the operating system ParityOS.

About the job

We are looking for a Quantum Hardware Physicist – Trapped-Ion Qubits

who will join our team of Quantum Physicists creating blueprints and strategies for next generation quantum computers, with a specific focus on fully fault-tolerant implementations using the ParityQC Architecture.

As a Quantum Hardware Physicist – Trapped-Ion Qubits, you will develop pioneering algorithms in the realm of quantum computing. These novel quantum algorithms are specifically co-designed to run on trapped-ion devices. You will utilize the specific advantages of different quantum error correction codes or noise-biased hardware platforms to develop fully fault-tolerant strategies for implementing universal quantum algorithms in the ParityQC Architecture. You will also be involved in noise simulations to study and improve the resulting error rates of the developed implementations and find suitable near-term applications.

Skills & Experience - Profile

  • PhD in physics, mathematics, or related subject with a focus on quantum computation
  • Understanding of trapped-ion architectures and their constraints (native gates, shuttling, noise), and experience compiling circuits for them
  • Deep understanding of quantum computation and quantum information, Hands-on experience with QEC. A strong mathematical background with the motivation to learn quickly is equally welcome.
  • Basic programming skills
  • High degree of creativity and pro-activeness
  • Ability to work self-initiated and independently, experience in research
  • Fluency in English

Preferred Experience

  • A proven track record in quantum computing with a focus on implementing quantum algorithms in a fault-tolerant manner
  • Experience with object-oriented programming and software development, in particular in Python

What we offer

We are a spin-off working in one of the most exciting emerging technology fields. There are no long-time proven concepts on what we are doing – we need to invent everything from scratch, and we are therefore able to shape a whole new generation of computing. ParityOS is the first fully cloud-based operating system for quantum computers. We are pioneers in this field and develop the blueprints for the upcoming generations. Thus, the position also offers the possibility to conduct research and publish in peer-reviewed journals. Furthermore, we offer an appealing work environment with an international, motivated team and the flexibility to partially work from home.
