We are offering a PhD position at the Quantum Systems of Informatics Group at the Institute of Theoretical and Applied Informatics, Polish Academy of Sciences. We are seeking a motivated candidate with a background in quantum physics, quantum information theory, computing theory, or discrete mathematics. The position is founded within the scope of Polish National Science Centre project Impact of input data alteration and modification of the algorithm parameters on the efficiency of quantum programs.

In this three year PhD position optimisation problems will be tackled with Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (NISQ) computing. The candidate will share time between the research center of Total SA in Saclay on the outskirts of Paris, France and an academic lab.

Prior experience with quantum computing is crucial, candidates not matching the profile will not be considered. The following profile is desired

Two PhD positions at the Forschungszentrum Jülich (Germany)
The Peter Grünberg Institute for Quantum Control (PGI-8) at the Forschungszentrum Jülich (Germany) specializes in novel optimization strategies for emerging quantum technologies. It is currently offering two PhD positions:

Department/Division/Group Information (optional):

Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) is a scientific, extreme scale Data Laboratory in the US, New York State, Long Island. We support the data and computational needs of on-site facilities such as the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC), the National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS II), the Center for Functional Nano Materials and the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement program. In addition, we host the largest data center for the ATLAS experiment at CERN, and provide online and offline data services for the Japanese Belle II experiment.

Fully founded 3-year theory PhD and Postdoc positions available soon in the group of Prof. Jarek Korbicz within OPUS project "Novel approach to decoherence and information transfer studies in open quantum systems" founded by the National Science Center of Poland.

A three-year PhD studentship (comprising stipend and fees) is available to international students to work with Alessandro Ferraro and Mauro Paternostro at the Quantum Technology group, School of Mathematics and Physics, Queen's University Belfast.

The project will focus on the use of machine learning techniques for quantum information processing, with particular emphasis on quantum state and process engineering in photonics quantum networks.

Strong interactions with world-leading experimental groups active are expected during the lifetime of the project.
