Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory is hiring a Quantum Simulations Software Developer within the NERSC division. The National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center (NERSC) at Berkeley Lab seeks an enthusiastic engineer to advance large-scale quantum circuit simulations. This position is within the Advanced Technologies Group (ATG), which focuses on exploring emerging computing technologies, including quantum computing, to accelerate scientific discovery. The current project is focused on validating the performance of quantum computers in the classical hardness regime. As the performance of quantum computers improves, it will no longer be possible to classically simulate quantum circuits, leaving us unable to determine how close quantum circuit performance is to ideal results. For this reason, it is necessary to develop scalable benchmarks that provide a way to quantify and predict the fidelity of quantum circuits relative to ideal results, without relying on classical...
