Responsibilities

  • Develop compiler for translating logical quantum computations to detailed low-level programs that realize quantum computations fault-tolerantly.
  • Develop software system for real-time diagnostics of errors that inevitably occur in quantum computations due to noise and decoherence, using syndrome information from the quantum computer's readout electronics.
  • Develop software framework for performance benchmarking of the above system for real-time error diagnostics.
  • Develop simulations of error correction experiments.
  • Gather software requirements by collaborating with researchers on error correction experiments and simulations.
