Join Us at the Forefront of Quantum Computing Innovation

About the FTQC Team

We are the company’s forward‑guard, working to identify the best paths forward for our technology, its architecture, and its applications in quantum computing. We study hybrid spin-optical architecture, fault‑tolerance, logical gates, magic states and we push the limits of Quandela's technology.

Description of the Project

This internship aims at developing novel fault‑tolerance strategies for Quandela's SPQOC architecture.

The project explores how this architecture could be extended with high‑rate quantum codes to improve encoding density without sacrificing reliability or computational flexibility.

Develop practical experience with simulation of fault‑tolerant circuit, quantum LDPC codes, and architecture design.

Your Key Responsibilities

• Participate in the FTQC group meetings and meet regularly with supervisors;
• Develop an understanding of existing methods for simulating and evaluating fault‑tolerant circuits;
• Develop knowledge on high‑rate qLDPC codes and on the SPOQC architecture;
• Contribute to the implementation of concatenated high‑rate codes on SPOQC's bi‑planar architecture;
• Present your work internally.
