**PhD in Formal Methods for Quantum Compilation (1.0 FTE)**

We are looking for individuals with an excellent academic record interested in the development and implementation of new classical data structures for quantum computing (decision diagrams, tensor networks, ZX-diagrams, etc). The project focuses on the development of novel solutions for quantum circuit optimization, simulation and formal verification of quantum circuits using the aforementioned data structures.
In this position you will be employed by Leiden University, but your time will be equally divided between the Leiden Institute of Advanced Computer Science (LIACS) and the Amsterdam-based quantum research center QuSoft. You will be jointly supervised by Dr. Alfons Laarman and Dr. John van de Wetering.

**Key responsibilities**
- Conducting research in the field of formal methods and quantum computing under the joint supervision of Dr. Alfons Laarman and Dr. John van de Wetering;
- Design and implementation of quantum circuit compilation methods, including, but not limited to, simulation, verification, synthesis and optimization;
**Selection Criteria**
- Master degree in mathematics, computer science or a closely related field;
- Strong interest and demonstratable expertise in formal methods and/or quantum computing;
- Affinity with the field of satisfiability and knowledge compilation is preferred;
- Good programming skills in C/C++ or Java;
- Proficient in spoken and written English;
- An independent and creative team player with good communicative skills;
- Able to work independently in a multidisciplinary environment;
- Team spirit/collaboration attitude is strongly preferred.

**Research in Leiden**
The Leiden Faculty of Science is a world-class faculty where staff and students work together in a dynamic international environment. Our people are driven by curiosity to expand fundamental knowledge and to look beyond the borders of their own discipline.

**QuSoft**

**Terms and conditions**
We offer a full-time appointment of initially one year. After a positive evaluation of the progress of the research, teaching evaluations, personal capabilities and compatibility, the appointment will be extended for another three years. Salary ranges from € 2.770;
- to € 3.539;
