About Xanadu:
Xanadu’s mission is to build quantum computers that are useful and available to people everywhere.
At Xanadu, we are learners, innovators, researchers, collaborators and problem solvers. We are creating something that has never been built before. Few people in their life will be able to be a part of something like this, where if we are successful, the technologies we develop will solve some of the world’s most challenging problems, and literally change the world. And that is something to be excited about
Your Role and Responsibilities:
As a member of the architecture team, the selected candidate will work on designing, simulating, and analyzing methods for preparing bosonic qubits to be used in Xanadu’s architectures for fault-tolerant, photonic quantum computers. For this role it is important to excel in theoretical quantum optics or bosonic qubit encodings, and numerical techniques.
Required Qualifications and Experience:
- MSc or PhD degree in Physics, Mathematics, Computer Science or a related technical field
- Expertise in theoretical quantum optics or bosonic qubit theory
- Demonstrated combination of strong problem solving and analytical skills, high creativity and attention to detail (e.g. explained something in a novel way, built connections between ideas that had not been known before, developed or improved the performance of a numerical technique, etc.)
- Demonstrated Python programming skills (e.g. for research, coursework, personal projects, coding challenges, or hackathons); include GitHub profile if available
- Demonstrated ability to employ numerical techniques for research problems (e.g. a paper or GitHub repo for a research or course project where you developed or implemented a numerical technique)
- Demonstrated interest and commitment toward understanding and collaborating with experimental, software and theory teams (e.g. providing theory support for an experimental demonstration)
- Demonstrated strong communication skills (e.g. papers, posters, conference talks, teaching experience, etc.)
- Ability to operate in a fast-paced environment and manage multiple competing priorities/deadlines
Preferred Qualifications and Experience:
- PhD degree, postdoctoral experience or industry experience in quantum technology
- Deep understanding of the theory formalism for Gaussian quantum optics
- Experience working with experimentalists/hardware teams to design and analyze experiments
- Knowledge of basic software development best practices (testing, code documentation, code reviews)
- Excellent Python programming skills, demonstrated via a public online portfolio (i.e. GitHub account, contributions to open-source projects, etc.)
- Experience as a project leader/owner
- Experience with high-performance computing
