Quantum Error Correction Manager W/M
Pasqal
About Pasqal
PASQAL designs and develops Quantum Processing Units (QPUs) and associated software tools.
Our innovative technology enables us to address use cases that are currently beyond the reach of the most powerful supercomputers; these cases can concern industrial application challenges as well as fundamental science needs.
In addition to the exceptional computing power they provide, QPUs are highly energy efficient and will contribute to a significant reduction in the carbon footprint of the HPC industry.
Job Description
Within the Hardware department, the Quantum Error Correction (QEC) team develops error-correcting codes and protocols that allow quantum computation to be carried out in a fault-tolerant way. It includes selecting error correcting codes tailored to Pasqal hardware, designing fault-tolerant logical gates, developing decoders, and benchmarking QEC performance, analyzing experimental data to develop logical error models and budgets, and building and maintaining numerical libraries to simulate QEC protocols.
Technical Responsabilities
Build and maintain a roadmap for the QEC team, in line with the strategic hardware roadmap.
Ensure that QEC-related software tools are aligned with the team roadmap and ensure cross-project consistency
Provide technical supervision of the team's work.
Coordinate the work carried out by the team with other teams and projects.
Ensure quality in written reports and documents relating to scientific and technical work.
Participate to QEC-related discussions with external collaborators.
Contribute to grant proposals and follow-up.
Be proactive in the generation of ideas that can lead to intellectual property and participate in reviewing application requests emerging within the company and related to QEC.
Represent the company, attend and contribute to international conferences and fairs.
Managerial Responsibilities
Propose and monitor a schedule of tasks assigned to team members, in collaboration with project managers.
Participate in the recruitment of new team members.
Ensure regular reporting on the progress of work to management and stakeholders.
Supervise, support, and develop the skills of team members.

A propos de Pasqal
Pasqal conçoit et développe des processeurs quantiques (QPUs : Quantum Processing Units) et les outils logiciels associés.
Notre technologie innovante permet de traiter des cas d’usage qui sont à ce jour hors de portée des plus puissants des supercalculateurs ; ces cas peuvent concerner des défis industriels applicatifs aussi bien que les besoins des sciences fondamentales.
Au-delà de la puissance de calcul exceptionnelle qu’ils apportent, les QPUs sont d’une très grande efficacité énergétique et contribueront à réduire fortement l’empreinte carbone de l’industrie du calcul intensif.
