At Atom Computing, we build quantum computers using arrays of optically trapped neutral atoms that will achieve unprecedented computational breakthroughs. Join an incredible team of scientists, engineers, and business professionals to advance the state of the art in quantum technologies that will transform computing performance.

We are seeking physicists, computer scientists, mathematicians, and engineers to contribute to the architecture and strategy of error correction on neutral atom quantum computers. Atomic qubit arrays provide a path to the large-scale quantum computers that will deliver error-corrected logical qubits and fault-tolerant operations.

At Atom Computing, you will work alongside our Quantum Engineering, Control Systems, and Software teams to demonstrate the power of scalable, neutral-atom quantum computers.

Developing and optimizing fault-tolerance schemes for gate-based atomic array quantum computers

Developing and evaluating optimization strategies for atom movement during fault-tolerant computation

Collaborating with software and control systems teams to implement classical compute layers necessary for fault-tolerant computation

Developing and implementing decoders

Developing and maintaining tools for quantum simulation

Implementation of error correction on quantum hardware

PhD in Physics, Mathematics, Computer Science, or a related field.

Experience with quantum error correction theory or experiment

Willingness to translate abstract ideas into concrete demonstrations running on actual quantum hardware.

Temperamentally suited to work at a fast-growing, early stage startup: self-motivated, humble, driven, collaborative, and has a high tolerance for ambiguity and uncertainty.

Ability to effectively communicate and collaborate with a diverse team of experimental physicists, hardware, and software engineers.

Familiarity with Python and Git software version control
