Quantum Algorithms Internship: Silicon Spin Qubits & Krylov

Quobly; Grenoble; On-site; EUR 7,800 - 12,000; Full time

Benefits offered by this job

CIFRE PhD pathway

Job summary

Quobly offers a 6-month Master 2 internship at the intersection of quantum computing and quantum chemistry, supervised by Quobly (Grenoble), CNRS LOMA (Bordeaux) and IPCMS (Strasbourg). The internship aims to lead to a CIFRE PhD with Quobly on the same topic.

The role involves literature study, implementing a quantum subspace method and QPE for small systems, and performing noisy simulations with SpinPulse, with regular reporting to the collaborating labs.

Qualifications

• Enrolled in a Master 2 or final-year engineering program in quantum or condensed-matter physics, or in quantum or theoretical chemistry, or quantum information.
• Solid background in quantum mechanics and genuine interest in quantum computing.
• Comfortable with Python programming; project relies on numerical simulations.
• Experience with quantum computing frameworks (Qiskit, Cirq, PennyLane) or quantum chemistry software is a plus but not required.
• Curious, motivated and able to work at the interface between research and development.

Responsibilities

• Study literature on variational and subspace-based quantum algorithms and get familiar with SpinPulse and standard quantum computing tools.
• Implement a quantum subspace method and Quantum Phase Estimation for small benchmark systems.
• Simulate noisy quantum execution on silicon spin qubits using SpinPulse and quantify noise impact on accuracy and resources.
• Write a report and present results to Quobly, LOMA and IPCMS teams.
