About the job

At PsiQuantum, our mission is to revolutionize computing by developing the world's first practical quantum computers—devices designed to unlock groundbreaking advancements in various industries. Since our inception in 2016, we have been dedicated to constructing and deploying million-qubit, fault-tolerant quantum systems.

Quantum computers utilize the principles of quantum mechanics to tackle complex problems that are beyond the reach of today's most advanced supercomputers and AI technologies. The influence of our innovations will extend across numerous vital sectors, including energy, pharmaceuticals, finance, agriculture, transportation, and materials.

Our cutting-edge architecture is grounded in silicon photonics. By capitalizing on advanced semiconductor manufacturing techniques, in partnership with industry leaders like GlobalFoundries, we harness the same high-volume processes that produce billions of chips for telecommunications and consumer electronics. The inherent advantages of photonics—such as immunity to heat and electromagnetic interference—provide us with a scalable solution that integrates seamlessly with existing cryogenic cooling systems and standard fiber-optic networks.

In 2024, PsiQuantum announced government-funded initiatives aimed at constructing our inaugural 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.

Additionally, we are engaged in developing the algorithms and software necessary to realize the commercial potential of these systems. Our software and application teams collaborate closely with prominent Fortune 500 companies—including Lockheed Martin, Mercedes-Benz, Boehringer Ingelheim, and Mitsubishi Chemical—to deliver quantum solutions that drive real-world results.

Quantum computing signifies not merely an evolution of classical computing, but a transformative shift that enables us to address challenges that are otherwise insurmountable. The possibilities are vast, and we have a defined strategy to bring them to fruition.

Join us in this exciting journey.
