Required Number 2

Qualification

Qualification Bachelors/Masters / Ph.D., in Quantum Physics, Theoretical Physics, Quantum Information Theory, or an equivalent advanced degree.

Job Description

• We are seeking experienced Senior Quantum Researchers with a deep foundation in Quantum Physics and Quantum Circuit Design.
• In this role, you will lead the theoretical framework and architectural design of our software appliance.
• You will ensure that the toolchain accurately models, encodes, and mitigates errors across superconducting quantum computing platforms, anchoring advanced research into a structured, deployable toolchain for India’s emerging quantum ecosystem.

Key Responsibility

• Fault-Tolerant Circuit Design: Architect robust fault-tolerant quantum logic, syndrome extraction circuits, and level-specific error mitigation routines tailored to real-world hardware topologies.
• Hardware-Aware Scheduling: Translate the complex physical noise characteristics of superconducting qubits into mathematical constraints to inform software-level scheduling and compiling.
• Theoretical Benchmarking: Establish rigorous validation metrics (including logical error rates and pseudothresholds) to analyze the fundamental limits and performance of developed decoders.
• Ecosystem Leadership: Act as the domain expert, driving the core physics logic of the tool chain and aligning software milestones with emerging trends in fault-tolerant quantum computation (FTQC).
