About the job
NVIDIA’s Quantum and Chemistry Research team is seeking Molecular AI and Quantum Research Interns to work in our newly-formed Quantum and Chemistry Research team led by Alán Aspuru-Guzik. The Quantum and Chemistry Research team explores novel approaches to integrate world-class NVIDIA multi GPU architectures with state-of-the-art and near-term quantum computers We also study how to develop new AI models for chemistry as well as agentic systems for computational chemistry. We are interested in robotics for self-driving labs as well. The Quantum and Chemistry Research Scientist will help develop either of:
Quantum algorithms at the interface of artificial intelligence and many-body physics models such as quantum chemistry.
Generative models for chemistry
Self-driving lab robotics capabilities
Agentic AI systems for computational chemistry
Responsibilities
Advance the state-of-the-art of AI-driven quantum algorithms, generative models for chemistry, self-driving labs, or agentic AI.
Present at relevant scientific, technical and industry conferences.
