As a Quantum Scientist and Modeling and Simulation Specialist, you will join a team of physicists, algorithm designers, and hardware engineers to develop a scalable, noise-aware simulation environment for fault-tolerant quantum circuits across diverse hardware models. You will build and validate high-efficiency simulators using state-vector, tensor-network, and stabilizer workflows while implementing realistic constraints like gate errors, decoherence, and measurement noise. Your daily work involves integrating mid-circuit measurements and logical decoders to support quantum error correction simulations and algorithm-hardware co-design. To achieve these goals, you will utilize Python, Rust, C++, CUDA, and frameworks such as Qiskit, Cirq, and PennyLane. You will also develop simulation pipelines for HPC clusters and GPUs while prototyping advanced methods like reduced-order models to solve complex problems in quantum circuit simulation and performance bottleneck analysis.
