Team Lead – Gate-Based Quantum Chemistry

Garching b. München (DE)

planqc builds full stack neutral-atom quantum computers. What decides whether they become useful is which applications they can run, and at what cost in real physical resources. Quantum chemistry and correlated electronic materials are the most credible candidates, and answering the question rigorously takes early fault-tolerant algorithm design grounded in block encodings, qubitization and quantum signal processing.
