Alice & Bob is developing the first universal, fault-tolerant quantum computer to solve the world’s hardest problems.

The quantum computer we envision building is based on a new kind of superconducting qubit: the Schrödinger cat qubit. In comparison to other superconducting platforms, cat qubits have the astonishing ability to implement quantum error correction autonomously!

We are at the forefront of the quantum race, competing with tech giants such as Google or IBM, and we are growing fast after securing  €100 million of funding in 2025 to develop our unique technology.

Currently 100+ and counting, between physicists, PhD students, engineers and experienced business professionals, we are united to reach our ambitious goal. Are you a quantum pioneer? Join us on a mission to reshape the future!

Context:

This internship explores the simulation of DC and RF couplings in large-scale superconducting qubit systems, a central challenge for scalable quantum computing. By building and analyzing detailed models of these interactions, the project aims to guide device design choices and enhance the performance of multi-qubit architectures.

About the role:

As an intern, you will be responsible for setting up and running DC/RF simulations (using InductEx/Ansys) to analyze superconducting qubit layouts, including crosstalk and parasitic effects. You will also collaborate closely with physicists and engineers, translating simulation results into concrete design rules and layout recommendations that drive the development of our fault-tolerant quantum processors.
