Quantum Error Correction Theorist

Senior Quantum Error Correction Theorist Sygaldry Technologies is seeking an experienced scientist to serve as a Senior Quantum Error Correction Theorist. In this role, you will be responsible for developing quantum error correction schemes to integrate multiple complementary qubit modalities into a fault-tolerant architecture. This is a rare opportunity to join an early team and help lay the foundation for a new quantum computing paradigm. What You'll Work On: Design and evaluate quantum error correction schemes for novel hardware architectures with multiple qubit modalities Develop efficient protocols for fault-tolerance under hardware-specific constraints and noise models Build simulation and modeling tools for system design and analysis Lead high-impact research projects with a multidisciplinary team of experimental and theoretical physicists, engineers, and computer scientists You May Be a Good Fit If You Have: A PhD in physics, applied physics, computer science, electrical engineering, or an equivalent degree in a similar field 5-10 years of experience in quantum error correction Publications in quantum error correction or related fields Possess a strong programming skills in a scientific computing environment Proven track record of successful cross-team collaborative projects Excellent written and verbal communication skills Strong Candidates May Have: Experience translating cutting-edge R&D into commercial products or roadmap milestones Experience deploying quantum error correction schemes on real quantum devices Experience translating abstract models of error correction into hardware-aware protocols Experience with decoding How We're Different: At Sygaldry, curiosity and intellectual courage drive our work. We approach ambitious challenges with a grounded, optimistic, and rigorous culture and know that kind people build the strongest teams. We prioritize mission over ego and collaborate openly with a strong sense of shared purpose. We dream big, yet we execute with a love of detail. We're looking for scientists, engineers, and operators to forge new paths with us at the intersection of quantum and AI.Culture & Benefits:
