Open Positions — 4

Research Scientist
Quantum Chemistry
Full-time
Oxford, UK

Lead the development of novel quantum algorithms for molecular simulation. You will design, implement, and benchmark variational methods on near-term quantum hardware.

Requirements

  • PhD in quantum chemistry, physics, or a closely related field
  • Experience with VQE, DMRG, or related variational methods
  • Proficiency in Python and a quantum SDK (Qiskit, PennyLane, or Cirq)
  • Strong publication record in peer-reviewed venues

Research Scientist
Machine Learning
Full-time
Oxford, UK

Develop ML architectures that interface with quantum simulation outputs to accelerate molecular property prediction and generative discovery.

Requirements

  • PhD or equivalent research experience in ML, computational chemistry, or related field
  • Deep familiarity with graph neural networks and geometric deep learning
  • Experience with PyTorch and high-performance computing environments
  • Interest in bridging classical ML with quantum methods

Software Engineer
Quantum Infrastructure
Full-time
Oxford, UK

Build the computational substrate on which our quantum simulations run — distributed systems, hardware interfaces, and simulation pipelines that demand the highest throughput.

Requirements

  • Strong systems programming background (C++, Rust, or similar)
  • Experience with HPC, distributed computing, or quantum hardware SDKs
  • Ability to work at the intersection of deep research and production engineering
  • Track record of building reliable, high-throughput software systems

Postdoctoral Researcher
Materials Discovery
2-year appointment
Oxford, UK

Advance the application of quantum simulation to next-generation battery electrolytes and solid-state catalysts as part of our materials discovery program.

Requirements

  • Recent PhD in materials science, condensed matter physics, or computational chemistry
  • Hands-on experience with DFT codes (VASP, Quantum ESPRESSO, or equivalent)
  • Desire to work at the frontier of quantum and classical simulation methods
