- Degree in Computer Science, Physics, Applied Mathematics, Electrical Engineering, or a related field (Ph.D. strongly preferred); equivalent demonstrated experience also considered.
- 8+ years of combined experience in quantum computing and/or AI/ML research, with a track record of high-impact contributions in at least one of these domains.
- Deep expertise in machine learning and deep learning—including model architecture design, training at scale, and evaluation—applied to scientific or engineering problems.
- Strong background in Quantum Information Science, including quantum error correction, fault-tolerant protocols, and quantum noise models.
- Excellent communication skills and the ability to collaborate effectively with multi-functional teams across research, engineering, and product.
Ways to stand out from the crowd
- Hands-on experience developing learned decoders or AI-driven calibration systems for quantum hardware (superconducting qubits, trapped ions, or other platforms).
- Experience with large-scale model training and fine-tuning—including parameter-efficient fine-tuning (LoRA, QLoRA, adapters) and domain adaptation for scientific AI models.
- Proficiency with CUDA and NVIDIA GPU programming for accelerating quantum simulation, AI model training, or real-time decoding workloads.
- Experience with high-performance computing (HPC) environments and distributed training frameworks (e.g., PyTorch Distributed, Megatron-LM, or JAX pmap) for large-scale quantum AI workloads.
- Passion to drive AI innovations into NVIDIA software and hardware products that support the broader quantum computing ecosystem.
