Palaiseau, France PASQAL Temps plein

**About Pasqal**

PASQAL designs and develops Quantum Processing Units (QPUs) and associated software tools.
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.

As part of our strong growth, we are recruiting an intern to work on the implementation and optimization of a pre-existing algorithm designed to handle Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimization (QUBO) problems that do not align with the constraints of a specific Quantum Processing Unit (QPU).

The initial focus will be on translating the theoretical formulation into a functional implementation, followed by rigorous benchmarking across a variety of QUBO cases to understand where the algorithm performs or fails. Subsequently, the internship will emphasize the optimization of the algorithm to enhance overall efficiency, reduce computational overhead, and fully leverage the quantum-enhanced optimization potential of the QPU.
If time permits, the scope of the internship might potentially be extended to design and explore alternatives and potentially more efficient approaches. This could involve the design and evaluation of new methodologies aimed at improving overall performance and adapting to evolving QPU specifications.

The tasks of this internship will be as follows:

- Analyze the initial version of the algorithm and evaluate its current performance
- Implement the initial algorithm and test its effectiveness on benchmark QUBOs
- Optimize the algorithm by improving workflow efficiency, reducing computational overhead, and enhancing solution quality
- Explore and test advanced optimization methods to further improve the current strategy or propose new approaches

**About you**

You are a Master’s student on Operations Research or Theoretical computer science and have the following skills:

- Experience with Python language
- Strong taste for Applied Mathematics and algorithmics, and a keen interest in deep tech and new technologies
- Good practices in algorithms development
- Report / documentation writing
- English fluency

Notions of quantum computing are not mandatory but highly appreciated.

**What we offer**
