Quantum-Art is a full-stack quantum computing company developing state-of-the-art quantum computing systems based on trapped-ion technology, encompassing both hardware and software. As part of our mission, the Theory and Algorithms Group models and studies qubit dynamics in our quantum processing units (QPU) and develops novel quantum gates and coherent control schemes. We are seeking a highly skilled physicist to join this group. Key Responsibilities Design, simulate, and validate gates and circuits. Develop tools for efficient characterization of QPU performance. Collaborate extensively with the QPU group in developing and operating scalable quantum computers. Requirements Ph.D. in Physics (exceptional candidates with an M.Sc. will be considered). Strong background in quantum technologies, quantum information processing, and quantum dynamics. Software development experience, including proficiency in Python, and experience in simulations and/or execution of circuits and gates. Background in AMO physics — an
