Job Description

We are seeking an experienced senior scientist to help us develop capabilities towards secure quantum computing. Horizon staff have previously contributed to the development of many of the known secure delegation protocols and Horizon currently hosts a node on Singapore\xe2\x80\x99s national quantum communications network. You will have the opportunity to develop and implement quantum protocols to enable users to securely access remote computing resources in a real-world setting. You should have familiarity with blind or verifiable quantum computing, with experience in either quantum communications or cryptography beyond key distribution. You should have good communication skills and a passion for pushing at the boundaries of technology.

The successful candidate will join a fast-growing team responsible for the research and development behind our product roadmap.

Responsibilities

• Develop protocols and hardware architectures to enable secure quantum computing, and work with others to realise successful experimental demonstrations of secure delegation.
• Work with other employees to design and implement Horizon\xe2\x80\x99s products
• Solve scientific and technical problems in support of Horizon\xe2\x80\x99s product development and implement these solutions for integration with Horizon\xe2\x80\x99s products and services
• Mentor junior scientists on the team to enable their progress within the company and improve on technical skills
• Maintain proper documentation of your work and present results both internally and externally
• Write reports, research papers and technical documentation as maybe required by the company
• Work with other employees and external partners to develop and protect novel intellectual property relating to quantum hardware and software innovations
• Keep up to date with the latest scientific and technical advances
