Quantum- Summer Intern- Research Lab

Job description

IBM Quantum is an industry first initiative to build universal quantum computers for business,
engineering and science. This effort includes advancing the entire quantum computing technology
stack and exploring applications to make quantum broadly usable and accessible. With a worldwide
network of Fortune 500 companies, academic institutions, researchers, educators, and enthusiasts, we
are committed to driving innovation for our clients in the IBM Q Network and the Qiskit Community.
You will be part of a team whose mission is to prototype, test and release new technologies for the
world to use. As an IBM Quantum summer intern, you will collaborate with a multi-disciplinary, global
team of developers, designers, researchers, and engineers to bring new features to life. If you are self-
motivated, curious and love to code, we have the right opportunity for you!

We are now accepting applications for graduate level students to become IBM Quantum summer
interns in 2021, and join the journey from the fundamental science of quantum information to
quantum computing research and development. IBM Quantum summer interns will have the
opportunity to work on experiments, theory, software or hardware development, or quantum
information science. Areas of focus could include superconducting qubits, quantum error correction,
quantum complexity theory, quantum algorithms and applications, quantum machine learning, and
quantum compilers and optimizers (among other areas).

The IBM Quantum internship program will connect you with other students, university programs, IBM Q Network organizations, and the quantum computing community. From contributing to the open-source Qiskit framework, to
fundamental research in quantum computing, to helping people understand the relevance of quantum
computing, IBM Quantum interns will have the opportunity to gain valuable skills and experiences
essential for future professional opportunities as well as continued studies.

IBM Quantum interns will have the opportunity to:

Learn how companies conduct quantum computing research
Work on meaningful problems in the field of quantum computing
Receive mentorship from IBM researchers and others
Collaborate with peers working in the field of quantum computing
Get access to state-of-the-art quantum processors and devices at IBM
Gain a broad experience in quantum research, from fundamental to applied
Get exposure to the wide range of research happening at IBM
Receive training on Qiskit and mentorship on contributing to open source
