Descrizione Lavoro - Quantum Scientist QEC (Quantum Error Correction)


 


The mission of the Quantum-Enabled Computation Group is to explore, prototype, and demonstrate transformative computational advantage by leveraging quantized and entangled signals.  Our work falls into three key thrusts: quantum computing with superconducting qubits, classical computing with single flux quanta in superconducting circuits, and quantum information science and algorithms. We also enable the broader US research enterprise via superconducting device foundries and open-source software development, and support the US Government as strategic Test and Evaluation partners and subject matter experts. Our interdisciplinary Group includes scientific experts in computer science, quantum information, device theory, materials science, fabrication and integration engineering, electrical and microwave engineering, and quantum physics.


 


Position Description

 


The Quantum-Enabled Computation group at MIT Lincoln Laboratory seeks a full-time technical staff member with experience in quantum error correction to perform research on the design, implementation, and evaluation of current fault-tolerant schemes and their application to emerging quantum computing platforms. This researcher will work within a group that is performing research in various aspects of quantum computing including: quantum algorithms, quantum circuit implementation, resource estimation, and simulation of quantum error correction implementations in the presence of realistic error. Members of the Technical Staff are expected to mentor and supervise more junior researchers, lead small teams of colleagues, contribute to program development and management, and help shape future research directions.


 


Candidates should have experience in one or more of the following areas:


 



  • Design and analysis of quantum error correction (QEC) codes including: topological codes (e.g. surface codes), and qLDPC codes.

  • Mapping fault-tolerant implementations to physical hardware platforms and resource estimation of these implementations

  • Syndrome decoding algorithms and their implementation in software and on accelerator hardware (e.g. FPGAs, GPUs)

  • Simulation of the performance of QEC and fault-tolerant protocols using tools such as STIM and/or other simulators

  • Utilization of quantum software development environments, including: Cirq, Qualtran, QisKit, QuTip, etc.


 

Requirements

 



  • PhD in Physics, Computer Science, Mathematics or related field.

  • Strong background in quantum error correction and quantum computer science

  • Experience developing quantum circuits for QEC

  • Demonstrated ability to develop software in programming languages such as: C++, Python, Matlab, and/or Mathematica


 


Preferred Qualifications:


 



  • Experience in specific aspects of QEC research, as described above


 



Recent Graduate Hiring Range: $145,200-$170,000 




Experienced Hiring Range: $145,200-$220,000  




 




Disclaimer: MIT Lincoln Laboratory provides a typical hiring range as a good faith estimate of what we reasonably expect to offer for this position at the time of posting. The final salary offered to a selected candidate will depend on various factors, including—but not limited to—the scope and responsibilities of the role, the candidate’s experience, skills and education/training, internal equity considerations and applicable legal requirements. This range reflects base salary only and does not include additional forms of compensation or benefits.


 



At MIT Lincoln Laboratory, our exceptional career opportunities include many outstanding benefits to help you stay healthy, feel supported, and enjoy a fulfilling work-life balance. Benefits offered to employees include: 


 



  • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision plans

  • MIT-funded pension

  • Matching 401K

  • Paid leave (including vacation, sick, parental, military, etc.)

  • Tuition reimbursement and continuing education programs

  • Mentorship programs

  • A range of work-life balance options

  • ... and much more!  


 


Please visit our Benefits page for more information. As an employee of MIT, you can also take advantage of other voluntary benefits, discounts and perks.


 


Selected candidate will be subject to a pre-employment background investigation and must be able to obtain and maintain a Secret level DoD security clearance.


 


MIT Lincoln Laboratory is an Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment and will not be discriminated against on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, veteran status, disability status, or genetic information; U.S. citizenship is required.
