Director Public Affairs & Quantum Policy F/H

Alice & Bob is developing the first universal, fault-tolerant quantum computer to solve the world’s hardest problems.\n\n

The quantum computer we envision building is based on a new kind of superconducting qubit: the Schrödinger cat qubit ‍⬛ . In comparison to other superconducting platforms, cat qubits have the astonishing ability to implement quantum error correction autonomously!\n\n

We're a diverse team of 200+ brilliant minds from over 30 countries united by a single goal: to revolutionise computing with a practical fault-tolerant quantum machine. Are you ready to take on unprecedented challenges and contribute to revolutionising technology? Join us, and let's shape the future of quantum computing together!\n\n
