Quantum Error Correction Engineer - W/M

About Pasqal Pasqal designs and develops Quantum Processing Units (QPUs) and associated software tools. Our innovative technology enables us to address use cases that are currently beyond the reach of the most powerful supercomputers; these cases can concern industrial application challenges as well as fundamental science needs. In addition to the exceptional computing power they provide, QPUs are highly energy efficient and will contribute to a significant reduction in the carbon footprint of the HPC industry.

Within the Hardware department, the Quantum Error Correction (QEC) team develops error-correcting codes and protocols that allow quantum computation to be carried out in a fault-tolerant way. It includes selecting error-correcting codes tailored to Pasqal hardware, designing fault-tolerant logical gates, developing decoders, and benchmarking QEC performance, analyzing experimental data to develop logical error models and budgets, and building and maintaining numerical libraries to simulate QEC protocols.

• QEC codes & protocols: Select, adapt, and benchmark quantum error-correcting codes and protocols under realistic neutral-atom hardware constraints, including detection, decoding, and correction strategies.
• Decoding & performance analysis: Develop and evaluate decoding approaches, and quantify QEC performance under realistic noise models.
• Logical error models & budgets: Develop and maintain logical error models and error budgets, and connect them with physical noise models, experimental data, and internal emulators.
• Logical operations: Contribute to the design and benchmarking of fault-tolerant logical operations and logical gate strategies.
• QEC-driven architecture inputs: Provide QEC-driven inputs to the design of future QPU architectures, including constraints on layout, zoning, connectivity, and operation scheduling.
• Simulation & emulation tools: Develop and maintain QEC simulation tools consistent with internal models and assumptions.
• Documentation and communication: Write reports, technical documents, and scientific articles.
• Intellectual property: Contribute to the identification and protection of patentable technical ideas.
• External representation: Represent the company at international conferences, workshops, and industry events.
