quantum error correction

We are looking for highly motivated graduate students to join my research group at Université de Sherbrooke starting in Summer or Fall 2026. Our research focuses on:

1. Developing fundamental theories and practical tools to enable useful quantum computing, including noise characterization and mitigation, quantum error correction, and efficient quantum–classical interfaces.
2. Advancing the development and analysis of quantum algorithms.
3. Understanding the computational complexity of quantum many-body problems.
4. Exploring the interplay between AI and quantum computing, including both quantum-enhanced AI and AI-enhanced quantum computing.

We invite applications for a postdoctoral associate position in theoretical quantum information science in the Physics Department of Virginia Tech.

The successful candidate will work in areas related to quantum information theory, quantum error correction, and machine learning. The position will start in fall 2026 and will be for two years, with a possible 1-year extension pending availability of funding.

MOTH is inviting applications for a full-time staff researcher in quantum error correction. This position will support MOTH’s long-term vision for early fault-tolerant and fault-tolerant quantum computers, helping to create algorithms that will bring quantum advantages to the Media and Entertainment industries (including games, graphics and music).

At neQxt, our theory team explores the principles that make scalable quantum computing possible. We study how fault tolerance can be realized under realistic conditions, designing circuits, developing simulation methods, and analyzing noise at the circuit level. A key part of our work is to understand trade-offs between different approaches and how they can be embedded into modular architectures. We aim to connect theoretical insights with practical feasibility, developing techniques that move fault tolerance closer to realization. By building tools, models, and architectures, we provide a bridge between abstract principles and the requirements of physical quantum processors.

At neQxt, our theory team explores the principles that make scalable quantum computing possible. We focus on logical-qubit systems: developing quantum error correcting codes, decoding methods, and logical gate constructions, and studying the mathematical structures that underlie them. Our work aims to deepen the understanding of how fragile quantum information can be preserved over long timescales and across large systems. By advancing the theoretical foundations of quantum fault tolerance, we contribute to both the science of quantum information and the long-term vision of reliable quantum computing.

We invite applications for a PhD position on quantum computing, advised by Dominik Hangleiter and co-advised by Renato Renner. What awaits you in our group in Zuerich is a welcoming, open and interactive research environment. Our research is collaborative, interdisciplinary and embedded in the international quantum computing community.

The first implementations of quantum error correction are already emerging, but full-scale fault-tolerant quantum computation remains ahead. In addition to hardware advances, significant progress can be achieved through the codesign of quantum error-correcting codes, quantum algorithms (particularly for quantum simulation of condensed-matter systems), and quantum hardware. This will form the context of the PhD position.

A postdoctoral position is open to work with Francesco Arzani and the QAT team at INRIA Paris/École Normale Supérieure. The position is for two years (potentially extendable), the starting date is flexible from November 2025.

The focus will be on Bosonic Quantum Error Correction as part of the project "Bosonic Lattice Codes", a collaboration with the Freie Universität Berlin.

Centre for Quantum Mathematics (QM) at Department of Mathematics and Computer Science (IMADA), University of Southern Denmark (SDU) invites applications for several 2-3 year postdoc positions in quantum algorithms. The targeted starting date is 1 September 2025, or as soon as possible thereafter.
