The Mathematical Institute of the Faculty of Science, Leiden University, offers a PhD position on the topic of Algebraic Quantum Algorithms. The successful candidate will be working with both Peter Bruin (Leiden) and Maris Ozols (University of Amsterdam/QuSoft).

The Algorithms & Complexity group at IRIF (CNRS, Université Paris-Cité) in Paris (France) invites applications for multiple fully funded PhD and postdoc positions (1-3yrs) to work on the theory of quantum computing. Candidates with expertise in quantum computing or theoretical computer science more broadly are encouraged to apply.

The post of Research Associate (post-doctoral) is to conduct research on the theory of quantum algorithms within the interdisciplinary project Distributed Quantum Computing & Applications funded by the UK EPSRC. The work concerns the mathematical development and rigorous complexity analysis of quantum algorithms for the early fault-tolerance regime, where quantum processing units only feature a limited number of logical qubits allowing to run small size digital schemes.

Your Job:

You will work in an interdisciplinary project team on quantum enhanced machine learning methods. This includes:
the extension, development and analysis of new quantum machine learning algorithms for current and near-future quantum computers
investigating the applicability of quantum machine learning techniques to real-world problems from application partners
implementation and testing of algorithmic concepts with real data using QML software libraries such as Pennylane
evaluating recent technological and algorithmic developments for current quantum computers and those available in the near future
leading contributions to technical reports, scientific articles and policy papers
the co-supervision of theses

Your Profile:

PhD in physics, computer science, mathematics or comparable fields
Research experience in the area of quantum algorithms (ideally quantum machine learning)
Proven organizational and communication skills
Ability to work independently in interdisciplinary teams
Good written and spoken English language skills
Ideally good German language skills, both written and spoken
Ideally experience in software development

Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position at the Centre for Quantum Computer Science (CQCS), University of Latvia, lead by prof. Andris Ambainis. CQCS is among the strongest European research groups in quantum algorithms and currently consists of 20 researchers (including postdocs and graduate students).
