<div><p><b>About Pasqal</b></p><p>
PASQAL designs and develops Quantum Processing Units (QPUs) and associated software tools.<br>
Our innovative technology enables us to address use cases that are currently beyond the reach of the most powerful supercomputers; these cases can concern industrial application challenges as well as fundamental science needs.<br>
In addition to the exceptional computing power they provide, QPUs are highly energy efficient and will contribute to a significant reduction in the carbon footprint of the HPC industry.</p><p></p><p><b>
Job Description</b></p><p>
As part of our strong growth, we are looking for an engineer with a strong background in Operations Research (Applied Mathematics), including exact and heuristic algorithms and graph theory, to reinforce our Quantum Graph Optimization (QGO) team.</p><div><p>
In this role, you will primarily focus on designing,<b> developing, and delivering client-facing projects</b> based on PASQAL quantum processors. You will adapt existing solutions and co-develop new applications with clients, translating real-world optimization problems into graph-based and quantum-ready formulations. Your work will be strongly oriented toward practical use cases in graph theory, operations research, and related industrial applications.</p></div><div><p>
You will act as a <b>technical lead for client engagements</b>, managing the technical relationship with existing customers and partners and leading applied R&amp;D projects with prospective ones. This includes collaborating closely with clients and partners to define requirements, prototype solutions based on our quantum technology, and deliver results, as well as contributing to internal development efforts. You will work in close coordination with Engineering, R&amp;D, and external partners across all project phases, from problem definition to deployment.</p><p>
As a Senior Quantum Algorithm Developer, your missions and responsibilities will be as follows:</p></div><p></p><div><ul><li><p>
Investigate realistic implementations in our neutral-atom hardware, mostly based on analog paradigms, testing realistic parameter settings and analyzing the limitations and potential of our technology in solving challenging, industrial optimization problems</p></li><li><p>
Collaborate with our industrial partners, and in some projects also work together with clients who possess domain-expertise on the use cases we work.</p></li><li><p>
Apply analytical tools in mathematics and computer science, to test the feasibility of the algorithmic methods in solving some of the most promising use cases.</p></li></ul></div><div><ul><li><p>
Investigate the risk and return for certain use cases, the limitations of classical computing in solving them, and the potential benefits of our quantum computers.</p></li></ul></div><div><ul><li><p>
Develop codes in collaboration with our software engineering team, running on a variety of special-purpose simulation/emulation backends locally, on our HPC cluster, and mostly using our QPUs.</p></li></ul></div><div><ul><li><p>
