[Hiring] Quantum Error Correction Research Scientist Intern @NVIDIA

3d ago - NVIDIA is hiring a remote Quantum Error Correction Research Scientist Intern. πŸ’Έ Salary: usd 20 - 71 per hour πŸ“Location: USA

Role Description

We are looking for a Quantum Error Correction Research Scientist Intern to develop automated, high-performance quantum error correction research pipelines spanning both code discovery and decoder design. NVIDIA is deeply invested in the future of quantum computing, building the accelerated platforms (cuQuantum, CUDA-Q, and Ising) that researchers around the world rely on to design, simulate, and scale quantum systems. On this team, you will help push frontier research at the intersection of quantum code design, neural decoders, and AI-driven automation, prototyping large-scale methods to computationally discover, evaluate, and improve quantum error correction schemes for realistic quantum systems.

What you'll be doing:

  • Developing automated quantum error correcting code discovery protocols and pipelines.
  • Using AI and automation to identify novel quantum error correcting codes that achieve high-performance across encoding rate, error suppression, and system realizability.
  • Integrating various classical machine learning methods for identifying high-performance code constructions, building bespoke machine learning models tailored to high-performance code design, and developing machine learning-based decoders for topological and/or QLDPC codes, with an emphasis on improving decoding accuracy, scalability, and adaptability to quantum logic settings.
  • Building out methods to identify and evaluate high-performance error correcting codes and decoders that directly incorporate hardware constraints of various types of physical systems.
  • Analyzing and evaluating the performance of fault-tolerant circuits implementing quantum error correcting logic and memory using analysis and simulation tools.

Qualifications

  • Pursuing a Master's, or PhD in Physics, Electrical/Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
  • Background in quantum computing fundamentals, especially the fundamentals of quantum error correction, stabilizer codes, coding theory, and decoders.
  • Solid proficiency in Python or similar scientific programming language experience.
  • Good teamwork, communication, and documentation skills.

Requirements

  • Hands-on experience with tensor network, state vector, or quantum error correction methods for quantum circuit simulation.
  • Experience with neural network-based quantum error correction decoders, either for topological or QLDPC codes.
  • Familiarity with qubit loss, leakage, and other non-Pauli noise mechanisms, including methods for incorporating this information into QEC code design and decoder design.
  • Experience with magic state preparation, distillation, or factory design, including decoding and performance analysis of magic state factories.
  • GPU-accelerated simulation experience with cuQuantum, CUDA-Q, or related NVIDIA quantum software.

Benefits

  • Intern hourly rates ranging from 20 USD - 71 USD based on position, location, year in school, degree, and experience.
  • Eligibility for intern benefits.
