Senior Researchers Fault-tolerant Quantum Computing

Company Description

neQxt is a full-stack quantum computing company and a spin-off from the renowned Schmidt-Kaler research group at Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz. Specializing in ion trap quantum technologies, we manage the complete hardware and software development for quantum computing systems. Our theory team, headquartered in Cologne, explores the principles that make scalable quantum computing possible. We study how fault tolerance can be realized under realistic conditions, designing circuits, developing simulation methods, and analyzing noise at the circuit level. With our cutting-edge expertise, we connect theoretical insights with practical feasibility, developing techniques that move fault tolerance closer to realization. By building tools, models, and architectures, we provide a bridge between abstract principles and the requirements of physical quantum processors.

Role Description

We are seeking several Senior Researchers in Fault-tolerant Quantum Computing for a full-time, on-site role at our office in Cologne. As a part of our team, you will contribute to advancing quantum error correction techniques, developing algorithms, and designing experimental setups to enhance fault-tolerance in quantum systems. You will engage in collaborative projects, conduct theoretical and applied research, and contribute to publications while ensuring the seamless integration of quantum software and hardware solutions in industry-grade applications.
