Job Description
We are seeking a visionary Senior Quantum AI Architect to lead our breakthrough initiatives targeting the year 2026. Nexus Horizon Labs is pioneering the intersection of quantum computing and artificial intelligence, and we need a technical leader to architect systems that bridge the gap between classical and quantum realities.
In this role, you will not just write code; you will define the future of computation. You will collaborate with world-class physicists and data scientists to develop error-corrected quantum algorithms that can solve complex optimization problems currently deemed impossible.
Why join us?
• Work on the bleeding edge of technology.
• Competitive equity and benefits package.
• Flexible remote-first culture with state-of-the-art hubs.
Responsibilities
- Architect and implement scalable quantum machine learning models for real-world deployment by 2026.
- Collaborate with hardware teams to optimize quantum circuit efficiency and reduce coherence time errors.
- Develop novel quantum error correction codes and validation frameworks.
- Mentor junior researchers and engineers in both quantum physics and software engineering.
- Translate theoretical quantum physics concepts into production-ready software libraries.
- Conduct rigorous testing and validation of quantum algorithms on current NISQ (Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum) devices.
Qualifications
- Ph.D. or Master’s degree in Physics, Computer Science, Mathematics, or a related technical field.
- 5+ years of experience in machine learning, with specific exposure to quantum computing frameworks (Qiskit, Cirq, PennyLane).
- Proficiency in Python, C++, and CUDA programming.
- Strong understanding of linear algebra, probability theory, and optimization theory.
- Experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure) and containerization tools (Docker, Kubernetes).
- Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to work in a fast-paced, high-stakes research environment.
