Intern, Software Engineering - Computational Chemistry

PsiQuantum’s mission is to build the first useful quantum computers—machines capable of delivering the breakthroughs the field has long promised. Our architecture and approach is based on silicon photonics, and we develop the algorithms and software needed to make these systems commercially valuable.

Requirements

• Contribute to hardening a chemistry-to-quantum resource estimation pipeline: robustness, scalability, reproducibility, and “push-button” usability.
• Implement and validate stable interfaces/data contracts between core modules (inputs/outputs/metadata/schema checks).
• Help automate execution of a predefined benchmark suite across both cloud GPU environments and internal HPC clusters (job submission, retries, artifact collection, deterministic configs).
• Support expansion of an end-to-end scientific computation workflow by implementing integration layers, validation, and test coverage for new upstream inputs, additional computational backends, and alternative algorithmic paths within a single, consistent execution framework.
• Implement a representative application workflow that exercises the pipeline across a structured set of related inputs (parameter sweeps), automates repeated executions, aggregates outputs into analysis-ready artifacts, and documents key assumptions, approximations, and major sources of error/uncertainty.
• Implement secure, automated sharing of HPC outputs to cloud object storage (e.g., S3) for downstream analysis and collaboration.

Benefits

• Equal employment opportunity for all applicants and employees.
• Variable based on permanent residency location
