Job Description
We are on the precipice of a technological revolution. As we approach 2026, the boundaries of classical computing are dissolving. Nebula Quantum Systems is seeking a visionary Senior Quantum Systems Architect to lead our R&D division in building the infrastructure for a post-silicon era.
In this role, you will bridge the gap between theoretical quantum physics and practical, scalable software solutions. You will define the architectural blueprints for our next-generation quantum processors and collaborate directly with our AI ethics boards to ensure quantum supremacy aligns with global safety standards.
Join us in shaping the future of computation. This is not just a job; it is an opportunity to define the standard for 2026 and beyond.
Responsibilities
- Design and architect scalable quantum circuit architectures for near-term and fault-tolerant quantum computers.
- Develop hybrid algorithms that seamlessly integrate classical supercomputing resources with quantum processors.
- Lead the technical strategy for error correction protocols and qubit stability optimization.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to translate theoretical physics into deployable software stacks.
- Conduct rigorous performance testing and benchmarking of quantum hardware prototypes.
- Mentor junior quantum engineers and define best practices for the emerging quantum development lifecycle.
Qualifications
- PhD or Master’s degree in Quantum Physics, Computer Science, or a related STEM field with a focus on quantum mechanics.
- Minimum of 5 years of experience in high-level programming languages (Python, C++) with a focus on quantum computing libraries.
- Hands-on experience with quantum simulators and real quantum hardware (IBM Qiskit, Google Cirq, or Rigetti Forest).
- Deep understanding of quantum error correction, superposition, and entanglement principles.
- Strong background in distributed systems and cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud Platform).
- Proven track record of leading technical teams in a fast-paced, innovative R&D environment.
