At Alice & Bob, we are building the first universal, fault-tolerant quantum computer that can solve the world's hardest problems using superconducting cat qubits.

Cat qubits have the astonishing ability to autonomously suppress a certain type of error, and a significantly reduced hardware overhead compared to other technologies. This efficient technology makes us a leader in the race towards a fault-tolerant quantum computer.

We have raised 30 million EUR of funding and are currently over 100 employees at our main facilities in Paris. Among us are physicists, engineers, PhD students and experienced business professionals, all working together to reach our ambitious goal. If you want to challenge yourself and participate in this race, apply today.

We are offering an exciting internship opportunity focused on Ansys HFSS and electromagnetic (EM) simulation, specifically in the area of superconducting circuits. The role will involve simulating high-frequency electromagnetic fields and comparing these results with real-world measurements. Candidates should have a strong interest in advanced simulation techniques and a passion for working with cutting-edge technology. Join us to apply your theoretical knowledge and contribute to meaningful research in this innovative field.

Responsibilities

    • comparison of simulation and analytical results for harmonic oscillators
    • full wave analysis of superconducting circuits with Ansys HFSS and open source solutions
    • analysis of measurement results and comparison to the simulation
    • collaboration with Nano-fabrication and Experimental teams
    • (bonus) investigation of irrational constraints using classical electromagnetic simulations

Requirements

    • Bachelor or Master in Engineering or Physics
    • experienced in python programming
    • basic knowledge Circuit and Network theory
    • basic knowledge about electromagnetic theory
    • ambitious, curious and honest
Research shows that women might feel hesitant to apply for this job if they don't match 100% of the job requirements listed. This list is a guide, and we'd love to receive your application even if you think you're only a  partial match. We are looking to build teams that innovate, not just tick boxes on a job spec.

You will join of one of the most innovative startups in France at an early stage, to be part of a passionate and friendly team on its mission to build the first universal quantum computer!

We love to share and learn from one another, so you will be certain to innovate, develop new ideas, and have the space to grow.
