During the first part of my gap year, I had the privilege of working at Alice & Bob as a Superconducting Qubit Simulation Intern in their Microwave team.
Over these six months, I delved into the field of quantum computing, focusing on simulating circuits (well at least, parts of them) and testing new simulation software. This experience allowed me to work closely with a team of exceptionally passionate and dedicated individuals whose enthusiasm for their work was both contagious and admirable.
To my Alice&Bob colleagues, it may come as a surprise that my favorite part of the internship was not the weekly snacky time, but rather working with Felix, Danielius, Salim, Przemek, Mattis, and Yuki. I am deeply grateful for the opportunity they gave me to learn and progress in such a complex field. I would like to add a very special thank you to Felix, for being an outstanding mentor and guide.
If you are interested in quantum computing, developing in an intellectually stimulating environment, and working with an amazing team, I highly recommend exploring the opportunities at Alice&Bob and especially this one : https://lnkd.in/ejNYyN5P
This internship has been an invaluable experience, significantly enhancing both my technical skills and professional growth. I extend my heartfelt gratitude to the entire team at Alice & Bob for their support and mentorship.
P.S. : Below you will find an attempt to reproduce the iconic A&B cat using the meshing tool Gmsh. Was this a fail because drawing a cat turned out harder that I anticipated or because I want to encourage you to visit A&B's website to find out what the cat really looks like ? That question will remain unanswered.
