Scientist / Researcher in Quantum AI

As an established researcher in our dynamic team that includes researchers from Data Science and Quantum Computing, you will take ownership of advanced projects and drive real-world impact through the following responsibilities:

• Innovate: Lead research and development of cutting-edge hybrid quantum AI technologies tailored for industrial applications.
• Build: Design and implement advanced hybrid methods, algorithms, and tools for integration of AI and quantum computing.
• Connect: Build strong relationships and collaborate closely with leading industrial partners and international scientific consortia.
• Share: Publish your findings in high-impact journals and present your work at prestigious international conferences and scientific meetings.

If you already hold a PhD and are looking for an environment where you can lead innovative projects, collaborate with leading industry, and push the boundaries of applied quantum science, you belong here., * Collaboration: You enjoy mentoring researchers (including PhD candidates) and engaging in active team brainstorming just as much as independent research.

• Education: A PhD in Computer Science, Data Science, Artificial Intelligence, Mathematics, or a related field (with a focus on quantum technologies).
• Knowledge: A strong, proven understanding of Machine and/or Deep Learning and foundational understanding of Quantum Computing.
• Languages: Excellent communication skills in English (written and spoken); German is a welcome bonus but not a requirement., Proven experience or deep expertise in one or several of the following areas:
• Quantum computing platforms & algorithm development
• High-Performance Computing (HPC) & simulation
• Software engineering practices

An Entrepreneurial Mindset: You are excited by the prospect of commercializing research. We actively support scientists who want to bridge academia and business, offering pathways to develop spin-offs based on the IP and technologies you help build here.

• True Flexibility: Flextime with no core hours and a highly adaptable hybrid/home-office policy designed to seamlessly fit your personal life and responsibilities.
• An Inspiring Environment: A creative, international team working with state-of-the-art methods alongside top-tier European research institutes.
• A Culture of Belonging: Regular team events, a welcoming and modern working atmosphere, and a team that genuinely values equal opportunity across all genders and nationalities.
• A competitive salary: The monthly gross salary is EUR 4,932, and is paid 14 times per year for full-time employment (40 hours per week).
