About the job
At PsiQuantum, we are on a mission to revolutionize computing by developing the first practical quantum computers that can deliver unprecedented breakthroughs. Since our inception in 2016, we have dedicated ourselves to creating and deploying million-qubit, fault-tolerant quantum systems.
Our quantum computers leverage the principles of quantum mechanics to tackle complex problems that are beyond the reach of even the most powerful supercomputers and AI technologies. The implications of these advancements will extend across various sectors including energy, pharmaceuticals, finance, agriculture, transportation, and materials science.
Our innovative approach utilizes silicon photonics. By capitalizing on advanced semiconductor manufacturing processes, in collaboration with industry leaders like GlobalFoundries, we implement high-volume techniques that produce billions of chips for telecommunications and consumer electronics. Photonics offers distinct advantages for scalability, as photons are unaffected by heat, immune to electromagnetic interference, and compatible with existing cryogenic cooling systems and standard fiber-optic infrastructure.
In 2024, PsiQuantum announced significant government-funded initiatives to establish our first utility-scale quantum computing systems in Brisbane, Australia, and Chicago, Illinois. These projects showcase a growing acknowledgment of the strategic and economic importance of quantum computing, highlighting the urgency to scale our efforts.
Moreover, PsiQuantum is actively involved in developing the necessary software and algorithms to ensure these systems achieve commercial viability. Our application and software teams collaborate directly with top Fortune 500 companies, including Lockheed Martin, Mercedes-Benz, Boehringer Ingelheim, and Mitsubishi Chemical, to prepare impactful quantum solutions for real-world applications.
Quantum computing signifies a fundamental shift in how we approach problems, paving the way for solutions to challenges that cannot be addressed through classical computing methods. The potential is massive, and we are poised to make that potential a reality.
Join us in this groundbreaking journey.
