Job Description We are looking for a Senior Scientist to join our Advanced Computing & Modelling team and take a leading role in our research at the intersection of tensor networks and modern machine learning. This is an area of strategic importance for Terra Quantum, with applications across several industries. Your mission is to help grow and strengthen this research and to apply it to demanding real-world problems. We are looking for someone with a broad background in AI and machine learning and strong mathematical foundations, so they can either bring relevant expertise in this area or pick it up and start contributing quickly. The role reports to the Director of Advanced Technologies and works closely with scientists and engineers across the division.   Responsibilities Take a leading role in advancing and scaling up our tensor network research, developing new methods for efficient ML model architectures, training, and optimisation, and pushing them beyond the current state of the art. Design and train modern deep learning models, with a focus on making large-scale training more efficient. Develop and improve the algorithms at the core of our methods, taking ideas from concept to validated result. Work with teams across the division to apply these methods to challenging real-world Contribute to patents and selected publications, and represent Terra Quantum at leading conferences. Help structure the team's research and mentor junior colleagues, raising both scientific and engineering standards. Collaborate with engineers across the division to run methods efficiently on modern computing platforms.   Qualifications Required Must have more than 5 years of relevant post-PhD experience (or equivalent experience after an MSc) with significant relevant experience in machine learning, applied mathematics, computer science, or a closely related field, with strong mathematical foundations in linear algebra, numerical methods, optimisation, and probability. Hands-on experience training modern deep learning models such as transformers, including efficient large-scale training and fine-tuning, using frameworks such as PyTorch or JAX. Strong command of optimisation methods for machine learning, including gradient-based and large-scale optimisation, regularisation, and training dynamics and Experience with efficient training and model compression techniques, such as low-rank methods, quantisation, distillation, or sparsity. A demonstrated ability to master new mathematical frameworks quickly: either existing expertise in this area, or a clear track record showing you can pick it up Strong Python skills and solid software-engineering practice, with experience on GPU and HPC environments and distributed training. A record of publications or patents, and the ability to take a research direction from concept to result independently. Strong communication and organisational skills, and the willingness to guide and develop junior colleagues. Preferred Knowledge of tensor networks and related numerical and optimisation Domain exposure to one or more of: finance, chemistry, or operations Knowledge of C++ and familiarity with quantum computing   The Rewards  We are an international team of quantum technology experts and dedicated business creatives that are working to bring quantum-enabled solutions to the global market. Our brilliant team members enjoy a high degree of freedom working remotely or joining one of our office spaces.

There have been great advances in all areas of quantum technologies, and new fields of application are opened up every day. Hybrid computer systems that combine classic high-performance computing with quantum computers are already being used to develop solutions in sectors such as logistics, healthcare, finance, energy, automotive and aerospace. Quantum mechanical predictions are also used to obtain unprecedented precision in measurements, generate unbreakable codes, and form the basis of impenetrable communication networks. All these developments are happening right now, and they are happening at Terra Quantum.  At Terra Quantum we are building the world’s leading Quantum Technology company. We offer customers world-class quantum technology expertise organized as “quantum-as-a-service”: hybrid quantum algorithms, quantum compute and quantum enabled security solutions. Through the proprietary quantum cloud, customers have access to a unique technology platform which provides a toolset to solve real-world challenges in the realms of machine learning, optimization and simulation, today. In 2022, the company closed its Series A financing round with a $75m fundraise.  Quantum physics has, in some respects, parallels to the machine language of our computers-the zeros and ones into which our keyboard or touchscreen instructions are translated for execution in the computer-only on a larger scale: it is the machine language of the universe. The second quantum revolution is based on the control of individual quantum systems, such as individual atoms. We use quantum computers to solve currently unsolvable problems, simulate molecules and their interactions, find drugs for diseases that are not yet curable, find new materials, or make artificial intelligence stronger. Quantum is now.  Terra Quantum is a future-focused quantum services and technology company working on making the second quantum revolution a reality. Terra Quantum’s activities span all areas, markets, and industries globally.  Our purpose is to pioneer quantum technologies to change the world for good, Our vision is to lead the quantum revolution and be the trailblazer in technology solutions, shaping a better future for humankind to thrive in, and Our mission is to unleash the power of quantum tech to deliver meaningful solutions today Terra Quantum is an equal opportunities employer, committed to diversity, inclusion and employee well-being.
