About the role
QuEra is seeking motivated interns to join our growing team focused on developing the calibration and performance characterization framework for QuEra's neutral-atom quantum computers. As an intern, you will collaborate with physicists, software engineers, and hardware specialists to design benchmarking protocols, build physics-informed models of device behavior, and develop predictive tools for real-time qubit state evolution. This internship offers a unique opportunity to gain hands-on experience at the interface of quantum hardware and data science, contributing to the development of calibration and performance characterization frameworks for scalable, reliable neutral-atom quantum computers. This role is part of QuEra's Quantum Computing Services team and is based at QuEra's Boston headquarters. The team's mission is to develop QuEra's neutral-atom technology into cutting-edge quantum computing products and services. Core Responsibilities Develop and test data analysis routines to fit, visualize, and interpret experimental data. Design and execute device benchmarking and characterization experiments. Build and apply Hamiltonian learning routines to infer effective system parameters from time-evolution data. Develop predictive models for key performance metrics (gate fidelity, coherence, readout error) using time-series calibration history and machine learning methods. Collaborate closely with physicists, engineers, and software developers to integrate your work into QuEra's operational stack.
