QuEra Computing is the leading provider of quantum computers based on neutral-atoms. Our mission is to build the most scalable quantum computers. Backed by SoftBank VF.
About the role
QuEra Computing is seeking a Quantum Scientist to develop decoder algorithms and advance the theory of quantum error correction (QEC) for neutral atom quantum computers. You will design and analyze decoding methods for quantum memories and fault-tolerant logical circuits, studying how code structure and realistic noise affect logical performance, computational complexity, and scalability. Research will span algorithmic, machine learning, and hybrid approaches. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- Advanced degree in Physics, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Mathematics, or a related field, or equivalent experience
- Strong background in quantum error correction, quantum codes, and fault tolerance
- Research experience in decoder design and analysis of algorithmic complexity
- Experience evaluating decoders using analytical methods, numerical simulation, or both
- Strong scientific programming skills for decoder research and clear communication
- Decoding quantum memories or logical circuits under realistic circuit-level noise
