In integrated photonics the testing and characterisation of the components and circuits is of crucial importance to validate ideas, improve designs but also to assess the full photonic system. Because of the many components which can be integrated into one PIC, this is a challenging but rewarding job and as a characterisation and testing engineer this is your turf! You check the PICs as they come fresh from the fab and make sure, they perform as they should. You dynamically develop and adopt test procedures to benchmark the latest layouts and designs.
As Quantum Application Developer for Combinatorial Optimization (m/w/d), you will communicate with our customers to find solutions on our photonic quantum computing platform for their needs in mathematical optimization. You will understand their combinatorial optimization challenges and reformulate the problem such that it can be addressed with algorithms of our quantum computing software stack. In your working flow, you will closely collaborate with our quantum software and quantum algorithms team to understand the current and future capabilities and limits of our quantum computing stack.
As a PhD candidate in Photonic Quantum Computing (m/w/d) at Q.ANT, you will perform studies on universal approaches for photonic quantum computing. You will focus on investigating new ways to prepare high-fidelity resource states required for universal quantum computing. Within the framework of a public research project, you will be jointly supervised in collaboration with a leading-edge professor at a renowned research university (Technical University of Denmark). This will allow you to build up experience in both the university- and industry-based quantum technology research.
Your mission
As Quantum Algorithm Developer at Q.ANT, you will set new standards on the Quality of photonic quantum computing. You will Anticipate which existing quantum algorithms are most suitable to be adapted onto our photonic architecture for a given problem set. Furthermore, your Nosiness and creativity will let you to devise novel photonic quantum algorithms. In combination with the collaborative Teamwork of all Q.ANTies, this will enable you to solve thus far intractable problems.
