Job Description
We are standing on the threshold of a new era in computing. Apex Future Technologies is seeking a visionary Senior Quantum AI Architect to spearhead our R&D initiatives targeting the 2026 roadmap. You will be at the intersection of quantum mechanics and artificial intelligence, designing the systems that will define the next generation of computational power.
Our mission is to democratize quantum advantage for enterprise applications. In this role, you will not only build cutting-edge software but also define the architectural standards for hybrid quantum-classical environments.
Responsibilities
- Design and implement scalable quantum algorithms for optimization, machine learning, and cryptography.
- Architect hybrid quantum-classical pipelines compatible with NISQ (Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum) devices.
- Collaborate with hardware engineering teams to optimize software stacks for specific quantum processor topologies.
- Lead code reviews and mentor junior researchers and software engineers in quantum software engineering.
- Drive the technical vision for integrating quantum APIs into mainstream AI frameworks like TensorFlow and PyTorch.
- Research and publish on quantum error mitigation and noise reduction techniques.
Qualifications
- PhD or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Physics, Mathematics, or a related quantitative field.
- 5+ years of experience in software engineering, with at least 2 years specifically in quantum computing or quantum simulation.
- Proficiency in Python, C++, and quantum programming frameworks (Qiskit, Cirq, or Forest SDK).
- Deep understanding of classical machine learning algorithms and their potential for quantum acceleration.
- Strong experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud) and containerization technologies (Docker, Kubernetes).
- Excellent communication skills with the ability to translate complex technical concepts for diverse stakeholders.
