    Full-Time
    IonQ is developing the world's most powerful full-stack quantum computer based on trapped-ion technology.

    We are pushing past the limits of classical physics and current supercomputing technology to unlock a new era of computing.

    Quantum computing has the potential to impact every area of human society for the better. IonQ's computers will soon redefine industries like medicine, materials science, finance, artificial intelligence, machine learning, cryptography, and more. IonQ is at the forefront of this technological revolution.

    In this role, you will primarily perform gate level simulations of the trapped ion quantum computer. You will help benchmark and characterize the system performance against various noise models.

    You will work with the engineering team to perform gate level analysis of the current and next generation quantum systems and integration of the simulation software with the rest of the software stack.

    You will also help build, maintain and test software infrastructure necessary to enable circuit simulations at scale.

    Responsibilities:
    Develop methods and algorithms for approximate or exact gate level simulation of quantum circuits of next generation architectures
    Simulate and analyze circuits to examine performance against various noise models
    Benchmark and evaluate performances of various circuit simulation algorithms
    Document and communicate technical findings to the engineering team
    Integrate gate level simulation with other softwares in the simulation stack
    Contribute to the automation, testing and parallelization of the simulation workflow

    You'd be a good fit with:
    PhD in Quantum Physics, Engineering or a related field with minimum 3 years of experience
    Experience in quantum computing simulations either at the gate or pulse level
    Python programming for scientific computing

    You'd be a great fit with:
    PhD in Quantum Physics, Engineering or a related field with minimum 5 years of experience
    Experience with many-body physics and algorithms, matrix product state and tensor network methods
    Experience with open quantum systems and quantum error correction/mitigation algorithms
    Experience running large scale simulations on CPU/GPU clusters
    Experience with parallel programming in Python/C++
    Experience with AMO physics and trapped ion systems
    Experience with scripting and automating workflows in high-performance computing environments

    Location:
    This position is located in our newest facility in Bothell, WA.
    Our HQ is located in College Park, Maryland and we are a 15 minute metro ride from Washington DC. We are actively building out our recently opened manufacturing and production facility in the Seattle, Washington area.

    Depending on the position, you may be required to be located in Washington DC, Seattle, Washington or the Toronto, Canada area.

    However, IonQ will be expanding into additional geographies both domestically and internationally so don't let this stop you from applying.


    At IonQ, we believe in fair treatment, access, opportunity and advancement for all, while at the same time striving to identify and eliminate barriers.
