As Lead of AI for Quantum Systems, directly reporting to the VP of Software Development, you will define and drive C12’s AI strategy across the quantum computing stack. You will work at the intersection of AI, data, and quantum engineering to accelerate the development of our quantum computing hardware. This role prioritizes AI initiatives across qubit calibration and control, quantum error correction, manufacturing, and quantum chip design. You will ensure AI efforts are tightly aligned with C12’s core quantum roadmap.
Job Responsibility:
Refine and own the AI4quantum roadmap aligned with C12’s quantum hardware and system roadmap
Lead the design and application of AI and algorithmic methods in collaboration with quantum physicists for qubit calibration, qubit control optimization, quantum error correction, and system level performance improvement
Partner with data engineering to build and scale pipelines for quantum hardware and manufacturing data
Define AI-specific requirements for data quality, labeling, curation, and synthetic data generation to enable robust model training and analysis
Collaborate closely with quantum hardware engineers and software teams to integrate AI solutions into production workflows
Influence prioritization within existing software and data teams to ensure AI critical projects are executed effectively
Provide technical expertise and guidance on AI and algorithmic approaches to teams across C12, while laying the groundwork for future team expansion
Requirements:
Ph.D. in computer science, mathematics, artificial intelligence or related
Strong background in AI, machine learning, or applied mathematics with a clear interest in quantum technologies
Solid understanding of linear algebra
Able to operate across research and engineering
Collaborative mindset
Clear communicator
Fluency in the English language
Nice to have:
Experience applying AI or advanced algorithms to hardware intensive or physics driven domains
Exposure to quantum computing concepts (especially qubit control)
Hands on experience with data engineering, large scale data pipelines, or scientific data management
Familiarity with production environments
