The **Munich Quantum Valley (MQV) gGmbH** ([www.munich-quantum-valley.de](http://www.munich-quantum-valley.de)) is a non-profit organization supported by the Bavarian state government as part of the Hightech Agenda Bavaria. Its mission is to develop quantum computing demonstrators based on superconducting qubits and neutral atoms and to make them available for applications in science and industry. It fosters the Bavarian, German and European quantum ecosystem by bringing together research, industry, entrepreneurs, and the public.

To coordinate and steer the research and development programs of the Munich Quantum Valley we aim to fill as soon as possible three positions "Scientific Program Lead Quantum Computing" with focus on experimental, theoretical or computational quantum information processing.

**How you can support us:**

- You will coordinate programs and consortia working on quantum computing platforms (mainly superconducting qubits and neutral atoms), high performance computing systems and use-cases, or quantum computer algorithms and theory.
- You will align with the scientific advisors of the MQV on current and future research directions and work with the MQV teams to ensure technological progress.
- You will establish and maintain close relationships with research institutions, universities, and industry partners.
- You will closely monitor and steer programs and consortia to ensure the achievement of milestones and research goals, e.g. via regular site-visits.
- You will document and report progress and challenges to leadership and plan corrective actions in alignment with all stakeholders.
- You will monitor scientific and technological progress in the field, e.g. at international conferences and workshops, and evaluate the commercial market to shape and adjust the goals and milestones of the MQV.
- You will support the strategic positioning of the MQV in upcoming projects at the state, federal and European level and support grant applications.

**Your qualifications:**

- You hold a doctoral degree in Natural Sciences with specialization on Quantum Information Processing.
- You have several years of experience in either experimental, theoretical or computational quantum information science.
- You have a deep understanding of current developments, science and market trends, and applications in the field of quantum technologies.
- You have proven experience in the management and control of research projects.
- You, ideally, have experience in the acquisition of third-party funding.
- You have excellent communication and organizational skills, high self-motivation, and the ability to work both in a team and independently.
- You ideally have a good knowledge of project management software and relevant tools.
- You have good command of English and German, written and spoken.

**What we offer in return:**

- A curiosity-driven, technology-focused research and development environment with an international team of scientists and researchers in the growing MQV gGmbH and its partner institutions.
- The opportunity to shape the highly dynamic and productive MQV quantum computing landscape in Munich, one of the leading centers for quantum technologies.
- A dynamic, multidisciplinary environment at the Garching Research Campus, one of Europe's most advanced centers for education, research, development and entrepreneurship with internationally renowned institutes in the field of quantum technologies.
- A competitive salary, tailored to reflect your experience, qualifications, and skill level within a professional R&D environment.
- An interdisciplinary working environment with opportunities for further development.
