About the Role

At OQC, quantum error correction (QEC) sits at the heart of our mission to build the world’s most reliable, scalable, and high-performance quantum computers. We’re looking for a Quantum Error Correction Theorist to drive forward the theoretical foundations that will underpin the next generation of our superconducting quantum processors. Your work will directly influence how our hardware evolves, how algorithms perform, and how we move closer to fault-tolerant quantum computation.

You’re already an accomplished researcher with deep expertise in quantum error correction and quantum information theory. You thrive on developing new ideas, exploring complex theoretical landscapes, and translating insight into practical, measurable improvements. You’re equally comfortable collaborating across disciplines—working with hardware engineers, algorithm designers, and external partners to ensure that OQC’s technology remains at the cutting edge.

And of course, yo...
