QuEra Computing seeks a Quantum Scientist for its Quantum Computing Services team in Boston, working on a next-generation fault-tolerant quantum computer early in its life. The role centers on automating calibration routines, designing benchmarking protocols, and modeling behavior from physical error mechanisms to full-system performance, while translating among hardware, software, and applications teams. The posting asks for a PhD in AMO physics, quantum information, or related fields; hands-on experience with neutral-atom, trapped-ion, or similar systems; programming ability; and communication skills. Quantum error correction and AI automation familiarity are pluses.
