About the Role
Improve the design of Xanadu's photonic quantum computer by prototyping, co-designing, optimizing, and benchmarking its logical architecture. This role involves analytical and numerical work across various abstraction levels, from optical circuits to quantum error correction. Senior scientists will also contribute to high-level vision setting, design, and people/project management.
Responsibilities
- Prototype, co-design, optimize, and benchmark the logical architecture of Xanadu's photonic quantum computer.
- Improve the scalability and performance of the architecture across the full stack.
- Contribute to higher-level vision setting and design.
- Manage people and projects.
Requirements
- PhD in Physics, Engineering, Computer Science or a related technical field.
- Expertise in quantum computation theory, including quantum error correction under various noise models, codes, and decoders.
- Familiarity with the optical platform for quantum computation, especially bosonic codes such as GKP states and the continuous-variable formalism.
- Demonstrated Python programming skills.
- Demonstrated strong communication skills.
- Ability to operate in a fast-paced environment and manage multiple competing priorities/deadlines.
- PhD, postdoctoral or industry experience in quantum physics or technology.
- Deep understanding of quantum optics and/or MBQC.
- Knowledge of software development best practices.
- Experience with high-performance computing.
