Quantum Error Correction Researcher (Distributed Quantum Computing) at Welinq, Paris

Job Description

Welinq is hiring a quantum error correction researcher for its Algorithms and Distributed Quantum Computing Team in Paris. The team designs quantum algorithms for distributed and multi-core architectures, where several quantum processors are linked by a quantum network. Your focus will be distributed quantum error correction: making error correction work across networked processors with good scalability, fault tolerance and performance, and turning theory into practical implementations with Welinq’s hardware and software teams.
