Zusammenfassung

Quantum Motion, based in London, is seeking a senior quantum researcher to help map high‑level quantum algorithms to hardware and evaluate quantum error correction strategies.

You will work with a multidisciplinary team to optimize qubit utilization and runtimes, and to communicate breakthroughs at conferences and in journals. This role requires a PhD and a track record in quantum computing research.

Qualifikationen

• PhD in physics, maths, computer science or related discipline.
• Track record of quantum computing research: applications, algorithms, architectures or error correction.
• Knowledge of algorithms such as quantum phase estimation, block encodings, amplitude amplification.
• Familiarity with error correction techniques, including surface codes and magic state distillation.
• Experience writing results in reports or journals.
• Ability to present scientific work to technical and non-technical audiences; willing to travel for conferences.

Aufgaben

• Develop processes to map high-level quantum algorithms to hardware-compatible instructions.
• Assess tradeoffs between quantum error correction tools; select best options.
• Consider architecture-level requirements in algorithm-to-hardware breakdown.
• Account for resources required to run target algorithms (qubits, runtime).
• Collaborate with researchers to identify new directions and communicate constraints.
• Collaborate with software engineers to automate parts of the process.
• Present research results at internal and external meetings and events.
