Research Assistant in Quantum Computing and Music
Salary: c. £37,000 per annum (to be confirmed)
Duration: 12 months, full-time position (renewable subject to funding)
Starting date:1st March 2020 (can be negotiable)
The University of Plymouth' Interdisciplinary Centre for Computer Music Research (ICCMR) is seeking to recruit a Research Assistant to work on the "Quantum Computing and Music" project, funded by EPSRC Quantum Computing & Simulation Hub, part of the UK National Quantum Technologies Programme.
This is a pioneering project, aimed at expanding the range of applications of quantum computing technology towards the music industry. The main goal is to develop QuTune, an open source programming toolbox designed for sound and music with quantum computing, accompanied with tutorials and demonstrations. It will involve the design of quantum algorithms, and implementation of software combining quantum computing with sound/music programming. QuTune is aimed at supporting the emergence of a quantum-ready music tech community of early adopters of quantum computing technology.
This project will be developed in collaboration with University of Oxford's Department of Computer Science, Prof Bob Coecke's team. Supporting industrial collaborators include Spotify, inMusic (a family of leading music technology brands, such as Akai, Alesis, M-Audio) and Rigetti Computing.
Candidates are expected to have expertise in quantum computing and software development, and conversant with the field of computer music. A post-graduate degree in Physics, Mathematics, Computer Science, or related subject, is required, or demonstrable equivalent work experience.
Further particulars will follow shortly. In the meantime, for an expression of interest and/or informal discussion, please contact Professor Eduardo Miranda by email eduardo.miranda@plymouth.ac.uk
