PsiQuantum is a company dedicated to building and deploying the world's first useful quantum computers. Their approach involves a photonics-based architecture, leveraging existing infrastructure to create utility-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computers as rapidly as possible. With a team of quantum architects, chemists, developers, engineers, and theorists, PsiQuantum focuses on developing use-cases for quantum computers capable of solving complex, intractable problems. The company is actively involved in research and scaling their photonics approach to achieve large-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computing.

📋 Description

• Research and develop architectures for fault-tolerant photonic quantum computers • Model the generation of entangled qubit resource states using linear optical networks in full-stack simulations • Work with quantum architecture domain experts to understand, implement, and simulate methods for generating entangled resource states and encoded logic • Design, develop, and maintain robust software tools and infrastructure for full-stack quantum architecture simulations • Profile simulation software and implement more optimal computational techniques • Run simulation analyses, manage data, and communicate results • Ensure interoperability of simulation tools and modelling frameworks across projects, teams, and departments • Collaborate closely with optical architecture and fault-tolerance teams and iterate in response to evolving technical requirements

🎯 Requirements

• Degree in Physics, Math, Computer Science, or Electrical Engineering is required • 3+ years of collaborative software engineering experience, preferably in an R&D environment • Knowledge of quantum information and linear optics is required • Familiarity with linear optical quantum computing, quantum error correction, quantum networks, error modelling, graphical calculus (e.g. ZX calculus), and tensor networks is strongly preferred • Extensive experience with Python is required • Experience with a lower-level language such as C++ is preferred • Experience with collaborative software development tools and best practices, e.g. GitLab and CI/CD, is required • Ability to collaborate effectively across departments, sites, and time zones • Ability to work independently, prioritize, steer projects to completion, and contribute to a fast-moving start-up environment

🏖️ Benefits

• Equity grants • Competitive health coverage for you and your dependents • 401(k) with company match • Access to financial wellness tools and planning resources • Wellness benefits • Family support programs • Life and disability insurance • Paid leave programs • Company-designated paid holidays • Discretionary time off (DTO) • End-of-year company shutdown • Many benefits are subsidized or fully paid for by the company
