Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
Research and optimize quantum algorithms for implementation on future fault-tolerant quantum computers. Contribute to the academic community through publications, conference presentations, and the development of resource and cost models.
Requires a PhD in a mathematically focused discipline such as physics, theoretical chemistry, mathematics, or computer science. Candidates should possess strong communication skills and a motivation to learn quantum error correction and algorithms.
Cambridge, UK | Full-time | Permanent | Hybrid
Salary: £60,000 to £85,000, DOE
The salary range for this role is broad, as we are able to consider varying levels of experience. Any offer made will carefully take into account level of experience (including relevant industry experience), transferable relevant skills and previous relevant achievements.
We will also consider part-time applications for this role. Please indicate your preferred working schedule in your cover letter.
About us
Riverlane’s mission is to master quantum error correction (QEC) and unlock a new age of human progress. From advances in material and climate science, to complex chemistry simulation for new drug design, quantum computers will help humanity solve some of its most important challenges. But without QEC, the industry’s defining technical challenge, such breakthroughs can never be achieved. Riverlane is the world leader in QEC technology. QEC is a complex problem that requires a range of skills, talent and passion.
Having raised more than $125M in funding to date to accelerate our cutting-edge R&D in quantum error correction (QEC), Riverlane partners with many of the world’s leading quantum hardware providers and government agencies to make fault-tolerant quantum computing a reality. We’re making remarkable progress and growing fast.
About the role
As a QEC Researcher (Algorithms) at Riverlane, you’ll be part of one of our more forward-looking research-led science teams working on quantum algorithms and their implementation on future fault-tolerant quantum computers.
The team brings together mathematicians, physicists, and chemists, and works closely with leading researchers in quantum algorithms and QEC. A core part of the role is contributing to the academic community through publications and conference participation.
This role focuses on understanding how quantum algorithms perform in realistic fault-tolerant settings, taking into account practical error-correcting codes, hardware architectures and different qubit modalities.
Your work may include optimising quantum circuit compilation for specific QEC primitives, developing resource and cost models for fault-tolerant algorithms, and exploring co-design approaches that link algorithms, QEC schemes and hardware assumptions for early fault-tolerant devices.
You’ll collaborate closely with other QEC teams at Riverlane, including those working on logical operations, decoding and QEC code design across different qubit platforms.
Prior experience in QEC or quantum algorithms is helpful but not essential, we will support you to develop the relevant knowledge and skills.

Riverlane is the world leader in Quantum Error Correction (QEC), the technology that unlocks quantum computing's promise
The fragility of qubits means today's quantum computers fail under an avalanche of data errors long before they reach utility-scale. Riverlane builds QEC tools and technology that correct quantum errors as quickly as they occur. Using sophisticated codes and decoders on proprietary QEC chips, our technology identifies and corrects errors millions, and ultimately billions, of times per second. We accelerate the quantum ecosystem by working closely with many of the world's leading quantum computer manufacturers, government bodies and high-performance computing (HPC) centres. Together, we're opening a world of new possibilities.
