About the job
At PsiQuantum, we are on a pioneering journey to create the world's first practical quantum computers, machines that can unlock unprecedented breakthroughs across various industries. Since our inception in 2016, our unwavering commitment has been to develop and deploy million-qubit, fault-tolerant quantum systems.
Quantum computers leverage the principles of quantum mechanics to tackle challenges that even the most advanced supercomputers or AI systems cannot address. The transformative potential of quantum computing will resonate across sectors such as energy, pharmaceuticals, finance, agriculture, transportation, materials, and other foundational industries.
Our innovative architecture is grounded in silicon photonics, utilizing cutting-edge semiconductor manufacturing techniques in collaboration with partners like GlobalFoundries. This approach allows us to harness high-volume processes that already produce billions of chips for telecom and consumer electronics. Photonics offers distinct advantages for scalability: photons are immune to heat, unaffected by electromagnetic interference, and seamlessly integrate with existing cryogenic cooling and standard fiber-optic infrastructures.
In 2024, PsiQuantum announced government-backed initiatives to facilitate the development of our first utility-scale quantum computers in Brisbane, Australia, and Chicago, Illinois. These projects underscore a growing acknowledgment of the strategic and economic significance of quantum computing, emphasizing the urgency to scale our efforts.
Moreover, PsiQuantum is dedicated to crafting the algorithms and software essential for deriving commercial value from these systems. Our application, software, and industry teams collaborate directly with leading Fortune 500 companies, including Lockheed Martin, Mercedes-Benz, Boehringer Ingelheim, and Mitsubishi Chemical, to prepare quantum solutions for tangible real-world impacts.
Quantum computing signifies not merely an extension of classical computing but a revolutionary shift that opens pathways to address challenges that have remained insurmountable. The possibilities are vast, and we have a definitive roadmap to realize this vision.
Join us at PsiQuantum to help shape the future of computing!
