Atom ComputingResearch Intern
Berkeley, CA · Full-time
$50–$75/hr
Why join Atom Computing?
Why now: quantum hardware is crossing from lab curiosity toward error-corrected logical qubits, the step that makes these machines usable for real work. Atom Computing, a Berkeley quantum computer builder, could become the default machine for chemistry and materials work. With $191M raised, BoxGroup and Third Point Ventures back a $100M Series C, and 24 of 38 open roles appeared in the last 30 days.
JustBacked's take, based on Atom Computing's own site and its funding and hiring data.
At Atom Computing, we build quantum computers using arrays of optically trapped neutral atoms that will empower customers to achieve unprecedented computational breakthroughs. Join a world-class team of scientists, engineers, and business professionals to advance the state-of-the-art in quantum computing.
We are seeking a research intern to contribute to the architecture and strategy of error correction on neutral atom quantum computers. Atomic qubit arrays provide a path to the large-scale quantum computers that will deliver fault-tolerant, error-corrected logical qubits.
You will work with our Quantum Error Correction team to tackle targeted research questions related to fault-tolerant quantum computing using neutral-atom hardware. We are specifically seeking candidates with expertise in the following areas:
- Applications of machine learning/AI for quantum computing
- QEC codes and fault-tolerant logic
- Magic state production
- Synthesis and compilation of fault-tolerant algorithms
- Design, simulation, and execution of fault-tolerant protocols
As this is a temporary summer internship, interns are not eligible for employee benefits. Interns will have access to complimentary beverages, snacks, and catered lunches at our office.
The hourly pay range for this position is $50 - $75, commensurate with education and relevant experience.
