Advance quantum artificial intelligence research using quantum algorithms and neutral-atom simulation at the Université de Sherbrooke campus, with remote flexibility.

This postdoctoral researcher position develops algorithmic approaches for near-term quantum computing. Working with Prof. Stefanos Kourtis, NonTrivial, and PASQAL, you will study quantum simulation, machine learning, combinatorial optimization, and quantum advantage certification.

Key Responsibilities:

- Perform fundamental research on neutral-atom quantum computing and simulation
- Develop quantum simulation protocols for complex collective dynamics
- Design quantum machine learning protocols using quantum dynamics
- Manage research activities against the project roadmap




- Coordinate actions with PASQAL collaborators and co-supervise students

Requirements:

- PhD in quantum information theory, theoretical physics, or computer science
- PhD obtained less than two years ago
- Prepare research manuscripts independently with robust capabilities
- Work autonomously and supervise students
- Know ultracold atoms, algorithms, optimization, tensor networks, Python, or C

Bring autonomous research, quantum algorithms, and neutral-atom expertise to Prof. Kourtis's Quantum AI team and PASQAL collaboration.
