Quantum Computing is technology that uses the laws of quantum physics to solve hard problems faster than classical computers, which could potentially revolutionize fields like cryptography and much more.
Join us as we talk to Dr. Kayla Lee, to discuss quantum computing, why it’s important, and what students should be learning if they would like to build a long-term successful career in quantum computing.
Recognized by the 2021 MIT Technology Review as one of 35 Innovators Under 35, Dr. Kayla Lee leads Academic Alliances for IBM Quantum and is helping to build a global quantum computing community. She also co-founded the IBM HBCU Quantum Center, connecting 500 students and faculty members at 27 universities.
7 QUANTUM COMPUTING JOBS + SALARIES:
1. QUANTUM PHYSICIST – $120-170K
Because the entire quantum computing industry relies on complex quantum physics, one of the critical quantum computing jobs is as a quantum physicist.
2. QUANTUM COMPUTER SCIENTIST – $100K
Quantum computer scientists are often designated as quantum computing research scientists. They use quantum theory to conduct experiments to find and test solutions.
3. QUANTUM CRYPTOGRAPHY SCIENTISTS – $100K
Quantum cryptography scientists could be involved in using quantum computers to make quantum-safe procedures to keep data safe and to prevent data from being hacked in the first place.
4. QUANTUM COMPUTING SOFTWARE ENGINEERS – $105k-$125K
These engineers are expected to create software that is used to run extremely complex quantum computers.
5. QUANTUM DEVELOPER – mid-$90K
They develop quantum software based on designs that have already been created.
6. QUANTUM SOFTWARE SPECIALIST– mid-$90K
Quantum cryptography software specialists are needed by companies, particularly those in the security field and in industries that rely on cryptography to keep data secure, such as finance and national defense.
7. QUANTUM ENGINEER – $90K – $100K
Quantum engineers focus on the development of the quantum computers’ architectures, guided by quantum theory.
