Job Description: The Emergent Machine Intelligence and Quantum Teams at Hewlett-Packard Labs are currently seeking highly qualified, self-motivated interns to accelerate research towards new applications, core methodologies and technologies. The main research topic is at the interface of quantum computing, many-body physics, and high-performance computing with the long-term goal of designing and implementing novel quantum algorithms and accelerators for efficient quantum/classical simulation and tight HPC-QC integration for quantum computers of the future. Hewlett Packard Labs is an international research organization with its headquarters and largest facility located in Milpitas, California. As the central research organization for Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE), Hewlett Packard Labs' purpose is to deliver breakthrough technologies and technology advancements that provide a competitive advantage for the company, by investing in fundamental science and technology in areas of interest to HPE and getting the resulting technologies ready for adoption into new and existing markets. Our research positions offer competitive salaries and benefits for qualified candidates. The ideal candidate can thrive in an applied research environment, balancing significant technical and scientific contributions with the ability to bring such contributions to practice through innovative solutions that address the needs of our customers and partners.
