South Kensington, United Kingdom Imperial College London Full time

To help produce independent and original research within the Quantum Optics and Laser Science Group, submit publications to refereed journals, and help with teaching and administration within the Group.

The post holder will work on the EPSRC grant project Variational Quantum Algorithms for Structured Lattices. The main tasks of the post holders will be:

- To explore quantum algorithms to find short vectors in structured lattices.
- To analyse the efficiency of quantum algorithms.
- To devise quantum algorithms that respect the limitations of near-term quantum devices.

**Duties and responsibilities**:
The duties will include collaboration with the group of Dr. Cong Ling who are advertising a similar position. The post holder is expected to contribute with expertise in quantum physics and quantum information to this interdisciplinary project. This will include the development of quantum algorithms that take into account the symmetries of structures lattices.

**Essential requirements**:
Essential Criteria:

- A PhD or equivalent in Quantum Information and Quantum Computation
- Good publication in quantum Information/Computation
- Proven research experience with quantum algorithms
- Knowledge of Quantum Information
