About this role
Sr. Quantum Applied Scientist, Device and Architecture Theory, AWS Center for Quantum Computing Pasadena, California, USA The Amazon Center for Quantum Computing (CQC) is a multi-disciplinary team of scientists, engineers, and technicians on a mission to develop a fault-tolerant quantum computer. As a Senior Quantum Applied Scientist on our Device and Architecture Theory team, you will be a technical authority and driving force in the theory and modeling of our superconducting qubit processors. You will lead detailed modeling efforts to explain experimental results, inform new processor designs, and optimize device performance, working closely with our measurement, design, and calibration teams. You will also help chart the strategic direction for next-generation processors, evaluating novel qubits, gate schemes, and scalable architectures for error correction and fault-tolerant logic. This is a role with significant room for innovation: you will play a key role in architecting our large-scale error-corrected quantum processors. We are looking for a seasoned researcher with deep expertise in superconducting circuit physics and a proven track record of bridging theory and experiment. Success in this role requires both technical depth and a genuine passion for applied, collaborative work. The ideal candidate will excel at communication across disciplines - translating detailed analyses into actionable guidance for engineering teams - and will bring the experience and judgment to identify innovations that will have the greatest impact. Key job responsibilities - Develop theoretical and numerical models of superconducting qubit processors, working across theory, measurement, design, and calibration teams to validate predictions and translate modeling
