Graphene Quantum Advantage Internship H/F

Alice & Bob is developing the first universal, fault-tolerant quantum computer to solve the world’s hardest problems.

The quantum computer we envision building is based on a new kind of superconducting qubit: the Schrödinger cat qubit 🐈‍⬛. In comparison to other superconducting platforms, cat qubits have the astonishing ability to implement quantum error correction autonomously!

 

We're a diverse team of 200+ brilliant minds from over 30 countries united by a single goal: to revolutionise computing with a practical fault-tolerant quantum machine. Are you ready to take on unprecedented challenges and contribute to revolutionising technology? Join us, and let's shape the future of quantum computing together!

Alice & Bob’s application team is pursuing the development of a quantum computer utilising cat qubits, with the goal of achieving a 100-logical-qubit system by the end of the decade.

 

We are looking for a Master student to join us for 6 months to develop quantum algorithms for our first generation of fault-tolerant hardware.

 

Joining Alice & Bob will allow you to develop practical skills in quantum applications and contribute to the deployment quantum hardware.

 

 

As an intern, you will design a quantum algorithm for the simulation of quantum many-body systems with minimal hardware requirements, using techniques from dissipative state preparation. 

 

This internship will start in July 2026.

Familiarity with cat qubits, or fault-tolerant quantum computing is a plus.

Experience with Monte Carlo sampling, finite-shot statistics, or stochastic optimisation methods is a plus.

Expertise in condensed matter physics / fault-tolerant algorithms/ open quantum systems / quantum information is a plus.
