quantum compilation

The position is sponsored by the NFR project Smart Precision for Quantum Resilience.

This project aims at combining techniques and tools from precision tuning and other approximate computing techniques to the problem of optimising the choice for error correction codes in logical qubits implementations. These techniques should, whenever appropriate, be implemented within static code analysis tools, such as a compiler.

This project is planned as a collaboration between NTNU and another academic institution based in Italy. The successful candidate will work as a core member of the NTNU team while maintaining close collaboration with the partner institution in an international environment.

As the Postdoctoral Research Fellow, you will undertake research on quantum error correction and large-scale, error-corrected system design and algorithmic compilation. You will be required to act as senior theory researcher for UTS:QSI’s quantum compilation system, Rottnest. Your role will be to work with the Rottnest design team, quantum algorithm researchers and quantum computing architects to integrate fundamental techniques in fault-tolerant, error-corrected quantum computation and large-scale architectures for our Rottnest compiler framework.

Are you fascinated by the promise of quantum computers and eager to take an active part in realising their full potential? Do you enjoy working in a team of young and motivated researchers? If so, we have the perfect opportunity for you!

We are looking for a PhD student to join our team and contribute to cutting-edge research in quantum computing, with a focus on quantum compilation. You will join the Theory of Computer Science group (TCS) at the Informatics Institute and will be working together with researchers from QuSoft.
