Hey everyone, I saw IBM released a few 2026 internships. Wanted to start a discussion on what their teams may value most in a candidate. https://ibmglobal.avature.net/en_US/careers/OpenJobs/Quantum?10439=%5B674442%5D&10439_format=13594&listFilterMode=1&jobRecordsPerPage=9&

Hey guys, I’m going to the wilderness for a few days, but when I return I plan on expanding the Classroom section. I currently have a bunch of draft modules almost ready to release, and I will add many more according to your suggestions. Post below if you have any feedback, ideas, or questions you’d like answered in the Course in the Classroom section. The core theme will be building your own personal Quantum Career Roadmap.

Can anyone tell me who this is? Hint: he’s a microwave/RF engineer… I just landed in DC; I’m already failing at my goal of traveling less this semester.

What was your initial drive to want to build a career in quantum computing? It’s not like CS where it’s perceived as an “easy career that pays well”. For me, I started with the simple notion “I like computers, and quantum computing seems like a more interesting and advanced version of normal computers”. Of course my first inclination was a little naive, but that’s OK. It eventually grew into a genuine passion. I feel like everyone’s interests originate from some visceral and unconscious gut feeling and can build to a true passion with real experience. What was your gut feeling that has drawn you in to quantum computing? I shared my naive start, so it’s OK if yours is simple too.

Hi yall, want to get your thoughts on this projects I’m starting beginning of next year at the latest: Me and my roommate(he’s a computer engineer) are thinking of building control systems for a Quadcopter. Two questions: Is it really important to code the positional stuff and the math-intensive parts or can we use wrappers? Will that still teach me relevant skills? Is there a better control systems project that’s more quantum adjacent?
