Research Intern - Quantum Error Correction
About The Position
Research Interns put inquiry and theory into practice. Alongside fellow doctoral candidates and some of the world's best researchers, Research Interns learn, collaborate, and network for life. Research Interns not only advance their own careers, but they also contribute to exciting research and development strides. During the 12-week internship, Research Interns are paired with mentors and expected to collaborate with other Research Interns and researchers, present findings, and contribute to the vibrant life of the community. Research internships are available in all areas of research, and are offered year-round, though they typically begin in the summer. Currently enrolled in a PhD program in Computer Science, Physics, Mathematics, or a related STEM field. At least 1 year of experience in quantum error correction and quantum fault-tolerance. In addition to the qualifications below, you'll need to submit a minimum of two reference letters for this position as well as a cover letter and any relevant work or research samples. After you submit your application, a request for letters may be sent to your list of references on your behalf. Note that reference letters cannot be requested until after you have submitted your application, and furthermore, that they might not be automatically requested for all candidates. You may wish to alert your letter writers in advance, so they will be ready to submit your letter. Ability to use Python, Julia, Mathematica or other scientific computing tools for modeling quantum error correction codes and circuits. Experience using libraries such as stim, sinter, pymatching, fusion-blossom, relay-bp, mwpf, qldpc.
