Advanced R&D Scientist - Quantum Algorithms - 920

We are seeking a Research Scientist to join our team in Cambridge or London, working on the development of quantum algorithms with a focus on computing topological and geometric invariants of data. This role offers the opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge research aimed at advancing the capabilities of quantum computers and exploring their potential advantages for real-world applications.  In this role, you will develop novel quantum algorithms in computational topology and geometry, characterize their resource requirements and noise-robustness properties, and explore potential applications of these algorithms for data analysis in the near-fault tolerant era. You will implement these algorithms on Quantinuum’s quantum hardware and optimize their performance under realistic hardware constraints, leveraging error mitigation and quantum error correction.  You will collaborate closely w
