Day-to-Day Responsibilities
Formulate real-world optimisation problems, such as routing, scheduling or portfolio selection, in a form a quantum annealer can accept.
Map problems onto the annealer's hardware layout and tune the settings that control the annealing process.
Run experiments on quantum annealing hardware and compare the solutions with results from classical solvers.
Work with physicists to calibrate qubits, reduce noise and measure errors in the processor.
Write and test software that connects the annealer to classical pre-processing and post-processing code.
Document results and present performance findings to research teams or clients.
