Job description

  • Collaborate with internal product, research, and engineering teams and external partners to define system requirements to enable fault-tolerant quantum computing
  • Develop novel approaches to real-time quantum error correction and calibration supported by rigorous systems analysis for a variety of qubit modalities
  • Distill product requirements to technical requirements across hardware, software, and firmware
  • Develop test cases supporting technical requirements and review test implementations for correctness and completeness
  • Adopt a culture of collaboration, rapid innovation, technical depth, and creative problem solving

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Physics, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Applied Mathematics, or related engineering field or equivalent experience. Higher degrees also welcome.
  • 5+ overall years of post-bachelor’s experience including responsibility for engineering across multiple parts of a complex hardware and software system
  • Deep hands-on experience working with real qubits and quantum control systems software
  • Passion to drive technology innovations into NVIDIA software and hardware products to support Quantum Computing

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

  • Experience with design of quantum control systems and techniques, including communication and networking
  • Experience with development of real-time systems and embedded software
  • Knowledge of methods of benchmarking quantum computers
  • Adoption of AI and ML techniques
  • Experience with CUDA and NVIDIA GPUs
