Dear all,
I'm happy to announce an exciting and unique PhD opportunity — a 4-year dual degree, with two years spent in Manchester and two years in Tokyo, jointly supervised by Mio Murao and myself (Philip Taranto).
Full details about the project and how to apply can be found in the linked advertisement.
The Polyquantique research group led by Nicolás Quesada specializes in quantum photonics and quantum information. The group is looking for highly motivated candidates at the Postdoctoral and PhD level with interest and expertise in theoretical quantum optics.
We are a theory group with a significant computational component that collaborates closely with experimental groups and partners in government and industry. We write open source code and do reproducible science.
SoftQuantus is building next-generation quantum infrastructure in Europe, with a long-term objective of developing scalable trapped-ion quantum computing systems focused on stability, reproducibility, and operational reliability.
We are seeking a PhD-level experimental physicist to join as a technical cofounder and lead the hardware development effort.
Role Overview
The Founding Quantum Hardware Scientist will:
Lead the design and construction of a trapped-ion experimental platform
Architect scalable ion trap systems (e.g., Yb⁺ or Ca⁺)
About this role
SoftQuantus is developing QCOS, a Quantum Control Operating System focused on benchmarking, reproducibility, drift analysis, and hardware reliability. We are seeking a PhD-level Scientific Advisor to help shape the scientific foundation of our platform.
The Quantum Photonics Laboratory seeks a talented scientist to undertake research on the demonstration of an efficient interconnect between a quantum dot single photon source and a solid-state quantum memory. Significantly, the goal of the project is to achieve storage of large bandwidth photons in the telecom band into an on demand photonic quantum memory based on rare earth doped crystals.
The Niels Bohr Institute invites applicants for two PhD fellowships in Theoretical Quantum Optics and Quantum Information. The projects will be part of the theoretical quantum optics group and the Center for Hybrid quantum Networks (Hy-Q).
The starting date is (expected to be) 1 September 2026 or as soon as possible thereafter. An earlier starting date may also be a possibility.
Our group at the John Hopcroft Center for Computer Science (https://jhc.sjtu.edu.cn), Shanghai Jiao Tong University, invites applications for PhD (open to non-Chinese citizens) and postdoctoral positions.
We seek candidates to pursue pioneering research at the intersection of artificial intelligence (AI) and quantum information. Potential research directions include:
AI for the representation and characterization of complex quantum systems;
AI for quantum control and circuit compilation;
AI for quantum error correction.
We invite applications for a Ph.D. position on the topic of quantum simulation of gauge theories at the Technical University of Munich.
We look for an ambitious candidate, who will work on quantum simulation of gauge theories, interface with classical Monte Carlo simulations, connection to effective field theories and non-equilibrium physics and related topics.
The position will be associated with the Munich Center for Quantum Science and Technology (https://www.mcqst.de) and is to be filled as soon as possible.
The coherence time is a key metric for evaluating the performance of a quantum bit. We have recently proposed a new type of qubit that stores information in the mechanical displacement of a carbon nanotube and leverages its coupling to an electronic two-level system to induce sufficiently strong anharmonicity, enabling its manipulation and readout.
The QINFO team is recruiting a PhD student to work on computational problems in quantum information under the supervision of Omar Fawzi. We are seeking excellent candidates with a strong mathematical background and some prior exposure to quantum information.
