Day in My Life as a Quantum Computing Engineer!

Every day is different so this is just ONE day! This was a no meeting day so I ended up being able to do a lot of heads down work. But, other days are full of meetings - so I definitely get a lot less technical work done.

This week will be working on slides for a talk, more code, and some project planning for our dilution fridge control software!

Trying to figure out how to use quantum computing in your business or need to secure against the quantum threat?

Maybe you can use quantum computers to make a better AI voice that doesn't make me want to submerge myself into sulfuric acid.

One of the rare “what I do at my job” videos, where you get the impression that the person actually has work to do.

"Trying to convince physicists to use GitHub" That is so relatable 😅

[stefansommer]

As a mathematician, the github struggle is real

Quantum computing I thought of, but I have to settle for development with Rust for the next few years.

Remember, everyone in that room was at one point a newbie and knew just as much as we do when they started! Never too late to get into the field!

How long will it take quantum computers to get rid of that voiceover for good?

Im in Cybersecurity and work on Quantum Cryptography. Difficult but I love it.

Quantum computing engineer makes it sound like you've studied and deal with quantum mechanics.

Your job is awesome, just not what I reckoned from the title.

Basically identical to a standard day at my "normal" computing job. Code, write docs, troubleshoot data access issues on slack, trying to convince people to use tools properly, and sending emails. Lol not as cool as quantum computing, but good to know its basically the same daily experience.

Please upload code of an AI with the goal to over take the planet into that computer.

[LexifromZargon]

hey i know this is probably a bit late but i think i want to go into the quantum field too thanks for sharing this!

[travelingjohn]

What university and degrees did you get to become a quantum computer engineer?

[CamelDudeMan]

Hey that blur was non destructive. If any of the data was sensitive someone could reconstruct the image and read the code.

those hardware parts look like:
1, some steam punk device
2, ancient artifacts by Erich von Daniken
3, Alchohol distillery device

This gets recommend just after I start studying a course in Quantum Information and Computation. Just.. wow!

[heyhey]

Idk what you majored in but I wish I did that - this is something I’d look forward to most days. Not everyday because work is work lol but it seems so exciting and fun!

[salma-amlas]

Honestly sounds like a cool job. ❤ I get the impression it's a mix of hardware and software
