Description

What You Will Do Come join the best and brightest minds in the world at one of the most innovative and creative multidisciplinary research institutions engaged in strategic science on behalf of national security. The work we do at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) matters to our country and the world.The Information Sciences and Modeling group (A-1) is looking for outstanding candidates in the field of computer science to support programing and software development for quantum computers. The candidate is expected to work in an interdisciplinary and collaborative research environment. Previous experience with quantum computing is desired but not required for this position.This position is part of LANL's Advanced Network Science Initiative (ANSI), which is an interdisciplinary team comprised of physicists, engineers, mathematicians, statisticians, and computer scientists. Our typical customers include the Department of Energy, Department of Homeland Security, Department of Defense, and other national laboratories. Our work typically requires close collaborations within and outside the Laboratory. More details on ANSI can be found at . This researcher position will be filled at either the Quantum Computer Scientist/R&D Scientist 1 or 2 level, depending on the skills of the selected candidate. Additional job responsibilities (outlined below) will be assigned if the candidate is hired at the higher level. Quantum Computer Scientist 1 (R&D Scientist 1) $90,000- $147,000 A successful candidate is expected to: Assist with developing software frameworks for quantum computers; participate in developing implementations of quantum algorithms; participate in conducting experiments on quantum computing hardware; and may contribute to technical reports for government agencies and peer reviewed journals. Candidates are expected to contribute to projects with LANL's Global Security program office. Previous experience with quantum computing is desired but not required for this position. Quantum Computer Scientist 2 (R&D Scientist 2) $99,200 - $164,100 In addition to the requirements outlined above, qualification at the higher level requires:Mentoring junior staff and peers in technical and professional growth. Works unsupervised on individual projects and/or contributes to larger team efforts.
