Job Summary
QuEra Computing Inc. is seeking a talented and driven Postdoctoral Fellow with a background in quantum error correction (QEC) or related areas to contribute to our neutral atom quantum computing research and innovation role is a fixed-term ideal candidate will develop innovative QEC protocols design their concrete implementation in neutral atom hardware and evaluate how they interplay with quantum algorithms. This will inform both near-term applications and long-term architectures. This is a unique opportunity to shape the design direction of one of the most promising quantum computing platforms while working in close collaboration with QuEra scientists and engineers in an industry setting.
- Develop novel QEC schemes with lower overhead in space and time.
- Design QEC schemes suited to neutral atom platforms and collaborate with software teams on their simulation and implementation.
- Propose and evaluate scalable quantum architectures error correction schemes and control strategies.
- Collaborate with experimental teams to guide system design interpret results and validate models.
- Contribute to technical publications white papers and patent filings.
- Participate in internal knowledge-sharing sessions and external scientific outreach (e.g. conferences workshops).
- Ph.D. in Physics Computer Science Quantum Information or a closely related field.
- Demonstrated expertise in quantum error correction.
- Track record of peer-reviewed publications in top-tier journals.
