Job Description
Are you ready to define the technological landscape of 2026 and beyond? Nebula Horizon Labs is seeking a visionary Senior Quantum AI Research Engineer to spearhead our advanced computing initiatives. In this pivotal role, you will bridge the gap between classical artificial intelligence and next-generation quantum mechanics to solve complex problems that are currently unsolvable. Join our elite team in San Francisco and help build the infrastructure that will power the future economy.
We are looking for a thought leader who is not just adapting to the future, but actively architecting it. You will be at the forefront of integrating quantum supremacy into practical, real-world AI applications, ensuring our solutions remain ahead of the global curve.
Responsibilities
- Lead the research and development of hybrid quantum-classical algorithms designed for the 2026 industrial standard.
- Design and implement robust error correction protocols to enhance quantum computing stability and reliability.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to seamlessly integrate quantum solutions into existing high-scale AI frameworks.
- Publish high-impact research papers and present findings at top-tier global conferences and industry summits.
- Optimize hardware-software co-design for scalable quantum processing units (QPUs).
- Mentor junior researchers and PhD candidates in cutting-edge quantum computing methodologies.
Qualifications
- PhD or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Physics, Mathematics, or a related quantitative field.
- Minimum of 5 years of experience in quantum computing research or advanced AI development.
- Proficiency in programming languages such as Python, C++, and quantum SDKs like Qiskit, Cirq, or PennyLane.
- Deep understanding of linear algebra, probability theory, and machine learning principles.
- Experience with cloud-based quantum computing platforms (IBM Quantum, AWS Braket, Google Cirq).
- Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, experimental environment.
