About the Role
The selected candidate will work on designing, simulating, and optimizing the logical (quantum-error-correction) layers of Xanadu’s photonic quantum computer, focusing on research into the implementation of fault-tolerant logical gates.
Responsibilities
- Designing, simulating, and optimizing the logical (quantum-error-correction) layers of Xanadu’s photonic quantum computer.
- Researching the implementation of fault-tolerant logical gates, including topics like lattice surgery, homological measurements, co-designs with quantum error-correcting code and decoders, and physical implementations with measurement-based continuous-variable degrees of freedom.
Requirements
- MSc or PhD in Physics, Engineering, Computer Science or a related technical field.
- Expertise in quantum error-correction, especially in the fault-tolerant implementations of logical gates.
- Demonstrated programming skills for research, coursework, or personal projects.
- Demonstrated strong communication skills, e.g. papers, posters, conference talks, teaching experience.
- Ability to operate in a fast-paced environment and manage multiple competing priorities/deadlines.
- PhD, postdoctoral or industry experience in quantum physics or technology.
- Familiarity with the optical platform for quantum computation, especially bosonic codes such as GKP states and the continuous-variable formalism.
- Familiarity with measurement-based quantum computing.
- Familiarity with algebra (e.g., homological algebra, algebraic geometry, or other graduate level areas).
- Knowledge of software development best practices.
