Come join us.

Job Summary

Our system architecture department sits at the interface of hardware development, manufacturing, and the quantum architecture to design the first fault-tolerant quantum computer. The optical architecture group are specifically responsible for:

• discovering and developing new schemes for photonic quantum computation
• translating abstract quantum information protocols into the designs of physical systems
• modelling quantum optical systems to determine the requirements for hardware systems

Internships are hired on a rolling basis, with durations of 3 to 6 months. We offer placement opportunities in Palo Alto, California (United States), Bristol (United Kingdom), and remotely.

The internship role requires a challenging mix of analytical skills and programming. We are looking for fast learning, productive, creative individuals who are motivated to translate theoretical concepts into real technology.
