Job description

Join a world-class team at the frontier of quantum computing, where your research directly shapes the future of financial technology. At JPMorganChase, you will have the resources, partnerships, and scale to turn theoretical breakthroughs into real-world impact. This is a rare opportunity to grow your career at the intersection of cutting‑edge science and one of the world's most influential financial institutions.

As a Quantum Computing Research Scientist in the Global Technology Applied Research team, you will work across the full spectrum of quantum computing — from foundational theory and numerical simulation to hardware experimentation and business applications. You will collaborate with leading hardware partners and internal stakeholders to tackle some of the most complex computational challenges in finance. We value intellectual curiosity, rigorous thinking, and the ability to bridge deep technical expertise with practical impact.

Job responsibilities
  • Lead original research in quantum computing spanning algorithms, error correction, compilation, simulation, or financial applications, and publish results in top-tier academic venues
  • Collaborate with quantum hardware partners to design and execute experiments on partially and fully fault‑tolerant quantum devices
  • Partner with lines of business to identify, formalize, and solve high‑value computational problems using quantum and advanced classical methods
  • Develop and maintain scientific software for algorithm development, circuit compilation, simulation, and benchmarking
Required qualifications, capabilities, and skills
  • Ph.D. in computer science, physics, mathematics, or a related field with a research focus in quantum computing
  • Minimum 2 years of relevant experience in an industry or postdoctoral research role
  • Strong publication record in at least one of the following areas: quantum algorithms, quantum error correction, quantum complexity theory, quantum simulation, or computational finance
  • Proficiency in Python, C++, or Julia
  • Clear written and verbal communication skills with the ability to convey technical concepts to both specialist and non‑technical audiences
Preferred qualifications, capabilities, and skills
  • Experience with scientific computing and numerical methods
  • Familiarity with quantum error‑correcting codes — including surface, color, or other topological codes — and fault‑tolerant circuit design
  • Knowledge of quantum algorithms applied to financial problems such as optimization or risk analysis

We offer a competitive total rewards package including base salary determined based on the role, experience, skill set and location. Those in eligible roles may receive commission‑based pay and/or discretionary incentive compensation, paid in the form of cash and/or forfeitable equity, awarded in recognition of individual achievements and contributions. We also offer a range of benefits and programs to meet employee needs, based on eligibility. These benefits include comprehensive health care coverage, on‑site health and wellness centers, a retirement savings plan, backup childcare, tuition reimbursement, mental health support, financial coaching and more. Additional details about total compensation and benefits will be provided during the hiring process.

We recognize that our people are our strength and the diverse talents they bring to our global workforce are directly linked to our success. We are an equal opportunity employer and place a high value on diversity and inclusion at our company. We do not discriminate on the basis of any protected attribute, including race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, age, marital or veteran status, pregnancy or disability, or any other basis protected under applicable law. We also make reasonable accommodations for applicants’ and employees’ religious practices and beliefs, as well as mental health or physical disability needs.
