We are looking for a Senior Applied Scientist with deep expertise in quantum error correction to work on compilation science as part of a team of scientists and engineers building fault-tolerant quantum capabilities. In this role, you will make design choices that directly influence production systems, working alongside the FTQC Science Lead to translate research direction into implementable solutions: which error correction approaches to pursue, how to map logical circuits to physical qubits, how to optimize resource usage, and how to integrate decoders into execution flows. You will work at the boundary of science and engineering, where your research directly informs what gets built. This is not a purely theoretical role. You will implement your ideas, benchmark them against real hardware constraints, and iterate with software engineers who translate your designs into scalable infrastructure. We are particularly interested in candidates who have taken QEC research from theory into implementation, whether in simulation or on physical hardware. ### Key job responsibilities - Drive scientific design decisions for fault-tolerant quantum workloads: error correction code selection, logical gate synthesis, and qubit mapping strategies - Develop and implement resource estimation algorithms that guide compilation optimization - Collaborate with software engineers to translate QEC research into production software - Benchmark approaches against realistic hardware noise models and device constraints - Work with quantum hardware providers on compilation strategies tailored to specific architectures - Publish research in coordination with the broader Braket science team, representing Amazon Braket at relevant conferences and workshops ## At a glance - Posted by the employer: Jun 25, 2026 - First seen by OpenNash: Jul 10, 2026 - Last checked: Nov 8, 2026 - Listed for: 136 days - Location: US, WA, Seattle[Apply on Amazon’s careers site →](https://www.amazon.jobs/en/jobs/10458849/senior-applied-scientist-fault-tolerant-quantum-computing-amazon-braket) ## Hiring at Amazon - Open jobs: 21,930 - New in the last 7 days: After two weekly collections - Tracked since: Jul 10, 2026 [All Amazon jobs](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/) · [Weekly hiring report](/reports/hiring/) ## More jobs at Amazon ### [Senior Applied Scientist, AWS Billing](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/5ef1fdf0b9bad2e42897/) US, WA, Seattle ### [Senior Applied Scientist, Amazon Brand Stores](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/1363a01f6adac0f1aaad/) US, WA, Seattle ### [Senior Applied Scientist, Amazon Robotics - Vulcan](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/97c4ccc53e412fdee879/) US, WA, Seattle ### [Senior Applied Scientist, CBA](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/fe310eb301ec760f44a7/) US, WA, Seattle ### [Senior Applied Scientist, Featured Merchant Algorithm](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/61367f08e1143a6168c8/) US, WA, Seattle ## Similar jobs at other companies ### [Systems Engineer - Fault Management and System Autonomy *](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/northrop-grumman/jobs/93c777d24b5fb15146ec/) Northrop Grumman · United States-Virginia-Dulles ### [Electrical Fault Isolation Technician](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/tata-consultancy-services/jobs/26216cd85e97e490787e/) Tata Consultancy Services · Cupertino, CA ### [Claims – No-Fault Litigation Specialist](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/cincinnati-financial/jobs/d492bee7609879f7d24e/) Cincinnati Financial · Fairfield, OH ### [Principal/Senior Principal Systems Engineer - Fault Management & System Autonomy (AHT)](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/northrop-grumman/jobs/068762e8be8d76b1d885/) Northrop Grumman · United States-Virginia-Dulles OpenNash lists jobs from employers’ own careers sites and does not handle applications.
