We are inviting applications for PhD and postdoc positions as part of the ERC project Symmetry and Optimization at the Frontiers of Computation (SYMOPTIC). For more information, see https://qi.rub.de/hiring!
Quantum communications are revolutionising the way we transmit information and connect remote parties. Leveraging on the quantum properties of photons and on the tools developed for optical communications, it is now possible to distribute quantum coherence and confidential information to distant users, thus shaping the future quantum internet.
The Theory of Quantum Materials and Solid-State Quantum technologies group at the Materials Science Institute Madrid (ICMM) is seeking well-qualified, highly motivated, and dynamic young scientists at PhD and Postdoc level in theory and simulation of hybrid semiconductor-superconductor systems , including quantum devices like qubits. We seek persons with interest in condensed matter theory, quantum computing, etc. The project involves a close collaboration with state-of-the-art experimental labs.
DESCRIPTION
A 4-year PhD position is available, on the resource cost of quantum computing, focused on full-stack aspects and fundamental hardware considerations. The successful candidate will be enrolled in the CQT PhD programme. The project is part of the ANR-NRF “QuRes” project and will be co-supervised by Associate Prof. Hui Khoon Ng (Yale-NUS, MajuLab, CQT) and Dr. Alexia Auffèves (CNRS, MajuLab, CQT). It contributes to the international effort of the recently launched Quantum Energy Initiative.
The development and deployment of quantum technologies has become one of the paramount tasks for science in the 21st century. Quantum systems are characterized by their coherence. In order to preserve coherence, the systems need to be extremely well isolated from their environment and cooled down to extremely low temperatures.
The Quantum Information group (Department of Computer Science, Paderborn University, Germany) in the Faculty for Computer Science, Electrical Engineering and Mathematics is seeking a:
Research Associate (PhD student)
(pay scale E 13 TV-L, 100 percent. Information on this can be found in this link.)
The project aims to optimally allocate available quantum and classical resources a developer needs for a specific algorithm, by breaking larger circuits into smaller pieces that are distributed to different quantum processing units in parallel, with few quantum connectives between them, and then recombining the results.
Paderborn University is a high-performance and internationally oriented campus univer-sity with around 20,000 students. In interdisciplinary teams, we shape future-oriented research, innovative teaching and the active transfer of knowledge to society. As an im-portant research and cooperation partner, the university also shapes regional develop-ment strategies. We offer our more than 2,600 employees in research, teaching, technol-ogy and administration a lively, family-friendly and fair working environment with short decision-making processes and a wide range of opportunities.
Deadline: 30 June 2023 (or until the position is filled)
One fully funded PhD position to work with Prof Elham Kashefi in the School of Informatics at the University of Edinburgh on a project titled “Quantum Computing”.
