Join the team.

We’re hiring across research, engineering, and AI.

Quantum Hardware Scientist

All modalities

Research Engineering

Apply

Optimize control and calibration across every qubit modality we work with — superconducting, neutral atoms, trapped ions. Pulse design, gate optimization, and real-time feedback control.

Quantum Application Scientist

Research Engineering

Apply

Build what the control stack runs: quantum algorithms and error-correcting codes compiled down to pulses, benchmarked on real hardware.

Head of AI

Research & Development — Leadership

Apply

Lead the AI behind autonomous research. Own its direction — post-training methods, compute-resource optimization for our own models and solvers, scaling, and novel domain-specific model research — and build the team that delivers it.

FPGA Hardware Engineer

Engineering

Apply

Build the firmware layer of quantum control on QICK — Fermilab's open control hardware — from pulse playback and measurement feedback to real-time error decoding.
