We are now looking for a machine learning expert to join our quantum algorithm team in Espoo, Finland. Your key goals are to develop machine learning models related to quantum algorithm research. You will develop the models together with quantum algorithm engineers with math, physics or computer science background. Your role is to design and develop the models and adapt them to parallel computing on local GPU clusters or on supercomputers such as Lumi. You communicate with customers to understand use case specifications and requirements, and participate in development of machine learning models in customer use cases.

While a background in quantum computing is not mandatory, we seek individuals who possess a genuine interest in the potential of quantum computing and are eager to learn more about this groundbreaking field.

What will you do

• Design and develop machine learning models related to quantum algorithm research and use case demonstrations
• Design and develop code for parallel computing utilizing local clusters or supercomputers
• Collaborate with quantum algorithm developers
• Communicate with customers to derive the use case demonstration requirements

We are looking for

• Minimum of 5 years of experience in machine learning of various topics, e.g. reinforcement learning, neural networks, LLMs
• Experience in QML is a plus
• Knowledge of common ML libraries
• Strong systematic thinking and adherence to good software development practices, including unit and integration tests.
• Experience in leading software development projects of small teams is a plus
• Experience in writing code for parallel computing e.g. for GPU clusters
• Experience in HPC environments is a plus
• Knowledge of the basics of quantum mechanics, quantum computing and/or quantum algorithms is a plus
• Master’s degree in computer science, physics or mathematics. Ph.D. is a plus

What you need to succeed

• Good at communicating and collaborating with people
• Fluent in written and spoken English
• Proactive and creative
• Efficient and productive
• Able to identify and solve problems independently and understand the big picture to provide input at all stages of project work
• Flexible and adaptive to handle uncertainty of dynamic research topics

What we offer you:

• Visionary work in quantum algorithms. We offer positions at the cutting edge of technology, science and engineering of quantum algorithms. Our research is dedicated to finding quantum advantage algorithms that can be used to solve specific problems or even systemic and technological challenges in the society and business, so your work will be groundbreaking with a real, positive impact.
• Great career opportunities, and superb colleagues. Our personnel are highly educated research-oriented professionals. Collaborating in a multi-disciplinary team with top talent is a source of learning, inspiration, and fun. As we progress towards quantum advantage there will be new roles and responsibilities to grow into.
• Support for your well-being. Without our personnel we cannot succeed, so we take good care of them. We aim to nurture great team spirit and leadership and enable a good work-life balance.
