Quantum computing is not an extension of classical computing. It represents a fundamental shift—and a path to mastering challenges that cannot be solved any other way. The potential is enormous, and we have a clear path to make it real.
Come join us.
Job Summary
We are looking for enthusiastic candidates interested in applying quantum computing to real-world challenges. At PsiQuantum, we are particularly focused on use cases of quantum computing in chemistry, drug design, materials science, and fluid dynamics. Along these lines, we are offering internships in the areas of quantum algorithms and quantum compilation.
Your work could entail the -
Development of quantum algorithms to solve impactful problems,
Optimization of ubiquitous subroutines in fault tolerant quantum algorithms,
Compilation of quantum algorithms to logical gate sets,
Incorporation of architecture-aware optimizations,
Estimation of quantum resources.
Prior work in the field of fault tolerant quantum algorithms and compilation is preferred, but enthusiasm for quantum computing is essential.
Desired experience and skills
Currently studying for, or completed a postgraduate degree related to quantum algorithms, quantum circuit compilation, fault tolerance or another aspect of quantum computing OR 5+ years working professionally in one or more of these fields.
Experience with programming languages (e.g. Python) and collaborative software development tools (e.g. Git).
A creative and adaptable approach to problem solving.
Ability to work effectively in a highly collaborative team.
