## Description

PsiQuantum’s&nbsp;mission is to build the first useful quantum computers—machines capable of delivering the breakthroughs the field has long promised. Since our founding in 2016, our singular focus has been to build and deploy million-qubit, fault-tolerant quantum systems. &nbsp; 
Quantum computers harness the laws of quantum mechanics to solve problems that even the most advanced supercomputers or AI systems will never reach. Their impact will span energy, pharmaceuticals, finance, agriculture, transportation, materials, and other foundational industries. &nbsp; 
Our architecture and approach&nbsp;is&nbsp;based on silicon photonics. By&nbsp;leveraging&nbsp;the advanced semiconductor manufacturing industry—including partners like GlobalFoundries—we use the same high-volume processes that already produce billions of chips for telecom and consumer electronics. Photonics offers natural advantages for scale: photons&nbsp;don’t&nbsp;feel heat, are immune to electromagnetic interference, and integrate with existing cryogenic cooling and standard fiber-optic infrastructure. &nbsp; 
In 2024,&nbsp;PsiQuantum&nbsp;announced government-funded projects to support the build-out of our first utility-scale quantum computers in Brisbane, Australia, and Chicago, Illinois. These initiatives reflect a growing recognition that quantum computing will be strategically and economically defining—and that now is the time to scale. &nbsp; 
PsiQuantum&nbsp;also develops the algorithms and software needed to make these systems commercially valuable. Our application, software, and industry teams work directly with leading Fortune 500 companies—including Lockheed Martin, Mercedes-Benz, Boehringer Ingelheim, and Mitsubishi Chemical—to prepare quantum solutions for real-world impact. &nbsp; 
Quantum computing is not an extension of classical computing. It&nbsp;represents&nbsp;a fundamental shift—and a path to mastering challenges that cannot be&nbsp;solved&nbsp;any other way. The potential is enormous, and we have a clear&nbsp;path&nbsp;to make it real. &nbsp; 
Come join us. &nbsp; 
Job Summary: 
Quantum architects research and develop architectures for fault tolerant photonic quantum computers, in particular methods for entanglement generation, encoded logic, and error correction. Quantum architects in the simulation team focus on developing and running large-scale simulations to evaluate the performance of such methods and their integration into a full-stack architecture. We are looking for an experienced physicist with a strong collaborative software engineering background to bridge the gap between quantum computing research and scalable software development.
This role focuses on modelling the generation of entangled qubit resource states using linear optical networks in our full-stack simulations.&nbsp;Candidates should have knowledge of linear optics, and experience in some of the following areas: linear optical quantum computing, quantum error correction, quantum networks, error modelling, switching / multiplexing networks. The position requires close collaboration with optical ar
