We are seeking a Research Scientist for our quantum algorithms team in London or Cambridge, UK.
In this role, you will contribute to the design of novel quantum algorithms and to the development of techniques aimed at reducing algorithmic overheads for execution on Quantinuum’s hardware. You will also be responsible for estimating end-to-end resource requirements under realistic hardware constraints. This research includes the development of new techniques and quantum computational models aimed at reducing circuit depth and making quantum circuits shallower, as well as the scalable co-design of algorithms with our hardware, including early fault-tolerant protocols and error correction or detection primitives.
Key responsibilities
- Conduct research on new computational models and techniques to reduce the circuit depth of quantum algorithms
- Develop and implement novel quantum algorithms integrated with early fault-tolerant protocols and error correction or detection primitives
- Contribute to end-to-end resource estimation of quantum algorithms under realistic hardware constraints
- Communicate scientific results internally across teams and externally through publications and conference presentations
This is a permanent research position typically requiring a PhD in a relevant field. Our team members regularly publish scientific papers and present their results at leading conferences.
