• Introduction
• The candidate will conduct research in quantum simulation, developing computational approaches for studying complex quantum systems. The work will combine quantum computing, numerical methods, and scientific computing in a collaborative research environment.
• Your role and responsibilities
• As an intern, you will develop, implement, and evaluate computational methods for quantum simulation.

Benchmark algorithm performance, accuracy, resource requirements, and scalability. Apply these methods to problems such as ground- and excited-state calculations, time evolution, and thermal-state preparation. Collaborate with researchers across relevant scientific disciplines and communicate results through publications, presentations, and technical reports.

• Required technical and professional expertise
• Strong foundation in quantum computing and quantum algorithms.
• Proficiency in Python or a comparable scientific programming language.
• Knowledge of linear algebra and numerical methods.
• Ability to implement computational methods, analyze results, and communicate technical findings clearly.
• Preferred technical and professional experience
• Research experience in quantum simulation or related areas.
• Experience with Hamiltonian simulation, many-body methods, quantum chemistry, electronic structure, or condensed-matter physics.
• Familiarity with quantum software frameworks such as Qiskit, Cirq, PennyLane, or similar tools.
• Experience with scientific computing or high-performance computing environments is desirable.
