Software Engineering Intern - Quantum Information Science 2027

As an intern in the Quantum Information Software group at IBM, you will work with researchers and software engineers to turn advances in fault-tolerant quantum computing into production-quality software. Your role may include:

• Contributing to quantum compilation architectures for fault-tolerant quantum programs
• Building and extending software infrastructure for representing, analyzing, and transforming large-scale quantum programs
• Designing and implementing compiler passes for the analysis and optimization of quantum circuits
• Contributing to new execution models and software abstractions for next-generation quantum workloads
• Developing and evaluating tools and techniques for noise learning and scalable execution of error-mitigated workloads
• Implementing and benchmarking state-of-the-art compilation and optimization techniques from the research literature
• Contributing to open-source quantum software projects and tooling
