Principal Applied Research Scientist, Quantum Supercomputing

At NVIDIA, we’re solving the world’s most exciting problems with our unique approach to accelerated computing. As a Principal Applied Research Scientist, Quantum Supercomputing, you'll work with cross functional teams in Product, Engineering and Research to develop innovative technologies and intercept NVIDIA products in critical areas like AI methods for quantum, noise-accurate digital twins of quantum systems, and advanced simulation techniques. The Quantum organization is a small, strong, and visible group both inside and outside of NVIDIA while Quantum Information Science is an exciting area to advance the state of the art. We need passionate researchers to continue to grow this area. Do you have deep technical expertise in quantum with a passion for groundbreaking technology? If so, we would love to learn more about you!

What you'll be doing:

• Establish and lead technical collaborations with SCCs on hybrid quantum-classical application development across multiple industry verticals.

• Oversee and drive the execution of technical deliverables for projects involving key SCC partnerships, ensuring alignment with strategic objectives and customer success.

• Publish research works and speak at relevant scientific, technical, and industry conferences.

• Represent NVIDIA in Quantum Computing technical consortia and committees.

• Contribute to NVIDIA’s revenue stream through strategic technical engagement and the development of innovative solutions that support customer adoption and long-term partnerships.

What We Need To See:

• Ph.D. in Physics, Computer Science, Chemistry, Applied Mathematics, or a related field (or equivalent experience).

• 10+ Years of Applied Quantum Computing and Scientific Computing research or work experience.

• Demonstrated leadership in technical partnerships with SCCs.Excellent programming skills in Python, C++, and a parallel programming model (e.g., CUDA).

• World-class communication skills with a demonstrated ability to articulate a value proposition to technical and non-technical audiences.

• A track record of research excellence demonstrated in publications at leading conferences and journals.

Ways To Stand Out FromThe Crowd:

• Recognized thought-leadership in the cross section of quantum applied research and high-performance computing.

• Experience with the NVIDIA Quantum platform (cuQuantum or CUDA Quantum).

We are widely considered to be one of the technology world’s most desirable employers. We have some of the most talented people in the world working with us. If you are agile and autonomous, we want to hear from you!
