Internship Ibm Quantum Machine Learning Jobs (NOW HIRING)

The Quantum Algorithms Team at the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Center for Quantum Computing (CQC) is looking to hire an Applied Scientist. In this role, you will conduct theoretical research into applications of fault-tolerant quantum computers and develop new quantum algorithms. You will work on the forefront of quantum computing research and contribute toward the development of useful quantum technology, working alongside theoretical and experimental scientists, engineers, and technicians across the CQC.
You should have a deep and broad knowledge of quantum algorithms and applications for fault-tolerant quantum computers, and standard mathematical and computational methods for analyzing them.
Key job responsibilities
We are looking to hire an Applied Scientist focused on developing algorithms and applications for fault-tolerant quantum computers. In this role, you will:
- Collaborate with other members of the Quantum Algorithms Team and our academic collaborators, to analyze and optimize existing quantum algorithms
- Think big to invent new quantum algorithms and discover new application areas for fault-tolerant quantum computers
- Provide subject matter expertise on the topic of quantum algorithms, and communicate the latest developments to the broader quantum computing team
- Work with internal and external stakeholders to strengthen the long-term value proposition of quantum computing
- Interact with the Quantum Error Correction team to understand the interplay between quantum algorithms and quantum error correction
- Publish research papers in scientific journals and present at conferences
- Mentor research interns working on scientific projects
You are expected to develop and lead high-impact research projects that intersect with our engineering roadmap. Organization and communication skills are essential.
A day in the life
As an Applied Scientist on the Quantum Algorithms team, you develop practical applications for quantum computers. To do so, you will:
- Read academic publications, understand their practical applicability, and present the results in internal meetings
- Analyze and optimize existing quantum algorithms in domains such as quantum simulation, quantum chemistry, optimization, or machine learning - or develop entirely new algorithms
- Perform resource estimates to quantify the cost of running quantum algorithms within a given hardware architecture
- Write technical internal reports documenting research findings and analysis
- Write research papers and present your research results at flagship academic and industry conferences.
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS
- Currently has, or is in the process of obtaining, a PhD in operations research, applied mathematics, theoretical computer science, or equivalent
- Experience in patents or publications at top-tier peer-reviewed conferences or journals
- Experience in any of the following areas: algorithms and data structures, parsing, numerical optimization, data mining, parallel and distributed computing, high-performance computing
- Experience driving collaborative projects from conception to delivery
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
- Experience with programming languages such as Python, Java, C++
- Domain expertise in prominent quantum applications fields, such as quantum chemistry, simulation, machine learning, optimization, cryptography, sensing, differential equations, etc.
- Deep understanding of the impact of quantum error correction on the execution of quantum algorithms
- Experience with high-performance computing, or machine learning techniques
- Experience performing resource estimates to quantify the costs of running quantum applications within a given hardware architecture
