Job Description
Job Title: Research Scientist Quantum Software
Job Location: Cambridge UK
Job Location Type: Hybrid
Job Contract Type: Fulltime
Job Seniority Level: Entry level
Quantinuum are looking for a Research Scientist to join our quantum software team based in Cambridge and push the boundaries of quantum computing. In this role you will develop novel theoretical research and practical tools to reduce noise in quantum algorithms and bridge the gap between nearterm and faulttolerant computing. This includes but is not limited to topics such as noise mitigation and characterisation at the logical and physical levels of computations analysis of resources and tradeoffs in endtoend implementations under realistic conditions codesign of algorithms and faulttolerant protocols.
You will be part of a dynamic researchdriven environment that values interdisciplinarity creativity complex problemsolving and open discussions. While you will receive guidance from experienced researchers when needed you will also have the freedom to think independently and creatively. You will work collaboratively with software applications and experimental teams to contribute to the development of robust and scalable quantum computing systems. There will also be opportunities to collaborate with our academic and industry partners.
Responsibilities:
