Jul 2022 - Present
Led my team to demonstrate automation on real quantum devices-1. Developed and integrated error mitigation tools for different hardware providers to improve algorithmic success probabilities by three orders of magnitude2. Reduced the time taken for pulse optimization of two-qubit gates by 10X3. Automated tune-up of a cloud-based quantum device from a cold start under 90min using AI-driven processes
