Quantum-computing postdoc
Los Alamos National Laboratory, New Mexico, USA
=========================================

Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) in Los Alamos, New Mexico, USA is 
seeking postdoctoral researchers to work both independently and in a 
team environment on numerous aspects of quantum computing and quantum 
information, including at the interface of condensed-matter physics. One 
particular goal is to produce the foundational research needed to 
convert noisy, intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) computers into a 
reliable resource that can benefit both LANL's scientific and national 
security missions.

The successful candidate will be expected to

    * conduct research to identify areas of promise and to develop
      methodologies for exploiting near-term quantum computing
      technologies,

    * develop theoretical and computational tools for quantum computers,

      and

    * communicate research results through reports, presentations, and
      peer-reviewed publications.

Current members of the research team at LANL include Wojciech Zurek, 
Nikolai Sinitsyn, Hristo Djidjev, Rolando Somma, Scott Pakin, Andrew 
Sornborger, Patrick Coles, Łukasz Cincio, and Yiğit Subaşı.

LANL offers an excellent working environment and a competitive 
compensation and benefits package.
