Job Description
Join NexGen Quantum Labs at the forefront of computational revolution. As we approach 2026, quantum computing is transitioning from theory to reality, and we're seeking pioneers to architect the next generation of quantum systems. You'll lead the design of fault-tolerant quantum processors that will solve previously unsolvable problems in cryptography, materials science, and artificial intelligence.
This role offers the rare opportunity to shape foundational technologies that will define the next decade. Our Austin campus features state-of-the-art cryogenic labs and collaborative workspaces where interdisciplinary teams converge to push quantum boundaries.
Responsibilities
- Design scalable quantum processor architectures with >1000 qubit coherence
- Develop quantum error correction protocols for practical deployment
- Collaborate with hardware teams to optimize cryogenic control systems
- Create quantum algorithms for real-world industry applications
- Mentor junior researchers and publish breakthrough findings
- Lead quantum cloud integration projects with enterprise partners
Qualifications
- PhD in Quantum Physics, Computer Science, or Electrical Engineering
- 5+ years experience in quantum computing research or development
- Expertise in quantum error correction and fault-tolerant design
- Proficiency with quantum programming languages (Q#, Qiskit)
- Publication record in top quantum computing journals
- Experience with cryogenic quantum systems or superconducting qubits
