Job Description
Join Nexus Future Labs at the forefront of technological revolution as we pioneer quantum computing solutions for 2026 and beyond. We're seeking a visionary Quantum Computing Infrastructure Architect to design next-generation systems that will redefine computational boundaries. In this pivotal role, you'll architect hybrid quantum-classical infrastructures, optimize quantum algorithm implementations, and lead cross-disciplinary teams in translating quantum theory into transformative real-world applications. Our Austin hub offers unparalleled resources for quantum experimentation, including our proprietary Q-Cloud platform and partnerships with leading quantum hardware manufacturers. This is your opportunity to shape the future of computing while working alongside Nobel laureates and industry pioneers.
Responsibilities
- Design scalable quantum computing architectures integrating qubit processors, error correction systems, and classical control interfaces
- Develop hybrid quantum-classical workflows for optimization problems in cryptography, drug discovery, and materials science
- Lead implementation of quantum security protocols including QKD networks and post-quantum cryptography solutions
- Architect fault-tolerant quantum systems achieving 100+ logical qubit stability
- Optimize quantum algorithm performance through circuit compilation and hardware-software co-design
- Establish quantum infrastructure standards for regulatory compliance and industry interoperability
- Mentor quantum engineering teams on emerging technologies like topological qubits and photonic quantum processors
Qualifications
- PhD in Quantum Computing, Physics, or Computer Science with 8+ years of relevant experience
- Expertise in quantum error correction codes (surface, LDPC, color codes) and fault-tolerant architectures
- Proven experience with quantum programming languages (Q#, Qiskit, Cirq) and quantum circuit optimization
- Deep understanding of quantum hardware platforms (superconducting, trapped ion, photonic)
- Strong background in distributed systems and high-performance computing architectures
- Published research in quantum algorithms or quantum information theory
- Certification in quantum security protocols (e.g., NIST PQC standards)
- Experience leading quantum infrastructure projects with $5M+ budgets
