Greater Paris Metropolitan Region, France Welinq Temps plein

About Welinq:


Welinq’s mission is to enable quantum computing by interconnecting quantum processors.


Welinq is building the most efficient solution to interconnect quantum processors and drastically increase their computational power, opening the solving of extremely complex problems, such as drug discovery, which are untractable with conventional supercomputers. Our quantum link solution relies on the use of quantum memories to synchronize the signals emitted by the processors and have them run at the same pace. Our team has leveraged cold-atom technology to demonstrate the world record in quantum storage efficiency of 90%. We develop a fullstack and reliable quantum link solution based on this technology to enable quantum computing to fully deliver its promises for industry verticals.


The job:


As part of the Algorithms and Distributed Computing Team in Paris, you will you will be an integral part of Welinq’s quantum computing research team. You will work on designing and implementing novel quantum algorithms that leverage distributed and multi-core architectures to tackle complex computational challenges.
