Senior Machine Learning Software Engineer at ColdQuanta United States › Wisconsin › Madison (Posted Feb 18 2022) Salary 130k - 193k Job description ColdQuanta is developing a quantum computing platform utilizing a novel approach with neutral cold atoms. Our quantum computer, Hilbert, arranges individual atoms and generates complex electromagnetic fields to control their quantum state in order to run quantum circuits that our customers will use to discover drugs, optimize the power grid, and develop novel applications for quantum computing. We would like to apply techniques from advanced statistics and machine learning to a variety of problems including analyzing images of our atom array, running black box optimizations to keep our atoms cooled to a few μK, and maintaining gate fidelity by tuning the hundreds of thousands of variables that are used to generate laser and microwave pulses. Our software efforts are largely greenfield, and applicants should be comfortable delivering innovative solutions to novel and challenging problems. An ideal applicant will be able to work independently in exploring huge datasets to identify ways to improve our quantum computer and the software that makes it tick.
