The posting

Quantum Algorithm Engineer – Generative Models

At OQC, we aren’t just theorising about the future; we’re building it. Born from a philosophy of bold innovation, we’ve successfully transitioned quantum computing from an academic dream into a commercial reality. The most exciting thing is that we’re just getting started and we’ve recently closed our £260 million Series C funding round – the largest fundraise ever completed by a quantum computing company in Europe.

The Purpose

As a Quantum Algorithm Engineer specialising in Generative Models, you'll develop low-qubit quantum methods for synthetic and rare-event data generation. You'll explore where quantum approaches can deliver meaningful value, rigorously benchmark them against strong classical alternatives, and turn validated research into components that can run through OQC's hybrid computing platform.

The Role

Based in London, you'll work at the intersection of quantum algorithms, generative modelling and applied product development. You'll design and test quantum generative approaches on both simulators and QPUs, optimising them around the realities of today's quantum hardware.

This is an opportunity to take quantum algorithms beyond theoretical performance. You'll work experimentally, challenge assumptions with evidence and help determine which approaches have the potential to become useful, repeatable capabilities within real-world hybrid computing workflows.

What You'll Be Working On

  • Develop conditional, low-qubit quantum generators for synthetic and rare-event data, including banking use cases.
  • Design and evaluate approaches including latent-space QCBMs, adversarial models and continuous-output quantum generative methods.
  • Experiment with QCBMs, qGANs, quantum Boltzmann methods, variational circuits and quantum sampling techniques.
  • Benchmark quantum generative models rigorously against strong classical alternatives to establish where they provide meaningful value.
  • Optimise circuits, measurements and training requirements around realistic QPU constraints and hardware limitations.
  • Test and validate approaches across simulators and quantum hardware, using experimental evidence to guide development.
  • Package validated quantum generator components for repeatable execution through OQC's hybrid computing platform.

What We're Looking For

  • Experience as a quantum algorithms researcher or engineer, with a focus on low-qubit generative modelling.
  • Hands-on experience with approaches such as QCBMs, qGANs, quantum Boltzmann methods, variational circuits or quantum sampling.
  • Strong understanding of quantum algorithms and the practical constraints involved in executing them on current quantum hardware.
  • A rigorous experimental approach, including a willingness to benchmark quantum techniques against credible classical alternatives.
  • The ability to turn research questions into structured experiments, analyse results and use evidence to determine the next technical direction.
  • Strong ownership and communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively across quantum, software, product and engineering disciplines.
  • Degree or equivalent practical experience in Quantum Computing, Computer Science, Physics or a related discipline.

The 'Nice-to-Haves'

  • Experience taking quantum research software or experimental methods into repeatable engineering workflows.
  • Experience packaging research algorithms or models for integration into broader software platforms.
  • Familiarity with regulated enterprise use cases and evidence-led product development.
  • Experience applying quantum generative modelling to synthetic or rare-event datasets.
  • A pragmatic, curious approach and comfort working in a fast-evolving technical environment.
  • A relevant professional or postgraduate qualification.

Why Join OQC

You will join a world-class team at the forefront of the next computational era. We offer a culture of bold innovation, the chance to work with unique lab infrastructure, and the opportunity to see your work redefine the limits of computation.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
