Introduction

Your Role and Responsibilities
Today's quantum computers incorporate several hundred qubits. According to the IBM Quantum roadmap, this number will grow to more than 4000 qubits by 2025.

Apart from the challenges in implementing thousands of qubits in one or more chips, there are additional challenges within the Real-Time Architecture (RTA) — the "classical computing" hardware and firmware managing and processing the qubits.

The goal of this internship will be to continue improving existing implementations of controller gateware to allow for more efficient processing and communication among controller CPUs implemented as custom logic in FPGAs.

The tasks will align with one of several focus areas:

Implement the latest open source microwatt processor generation into our controllers
Implement custom intercontroller messaging to allow for highly efficient problem decomposition

The task includes:
- evaluating capabilities of the latest microwatt processor,
- integrating microwatt VHDL into controller source,
- testing VHDL in the existing system,
- synthesis and timing closure using the Xilinx Vivado toolset,
- writing low-level firmware to offer the new functionality to consuming software,
- implementing custom communication protocols

If you're interested please get

in contact with us and include in your response all relevant documents (preferably all in one single pdf file):1) Cover Letter incl.

your availability (earliest start and latest end date)

2) CV incl. your level of German

3) university enrollment document to prove that you are still studying

4) current transcript of records and other relevant certificates / references
