.Job Reference 769_24_CASE_Q_R0Position Undergraduate Student - Quantum computation (R0)Closing Date Saturday, 30 November, 2024About BSC The Barcelona Supercomputing Center - Centro Nacional de Supercomputación (BSC-CNS) is the leading supercomputing center in Spain. It houses MareNostrum, one of the most powerful supercomputers in Europe, and is now hosting entity for EuroHPC JU, the Joint Undertaking that leads large-scale investments and HPC provision in Europe. The mission of BSC is to research, develop and manage information technologies in order to facilitate scientific progress. BSC combines HPC service provision and R&D into both computer and computational science (life, earth and engineering sciences) under one roof, and currently has over 1000 staff from 60 countries.Context And Mission The Quantic group is a BSC initiative to study Quantum computation. This novel paradigm of computation has the potential to exploit Quantum mechanics to perform high-performance computations of Quantum systems and optimization problems. The final goal of this project is the application of this new computing power to real-world problems. Our approach involves the development of novel HPC tools to simulate and study large scale Quantum circuits.Key Duties Use of parallel tools to simulate Quantum circuitsDeveloping hybrid solutions to solve scientific problems using Quantum and classical resources.Study computational advantages of a Quantum approach.Requirements Education Student of a degree in Physics, Computer science or equivalentEssential Knowledge and Professional Experience Experience in programming with Python, Julia, C and C++Additional Knowledge and Professional Experience Numerical programming skillsGood level of EnglishCompetences Capacity to interact and build strong relations with the teamGood written and verbal communication skillsConditions The position will be located at BSC within the CASE DepartmentWe offer a full-time contract (37
