Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolConrad Haupt is a pre-doctoral researcher at IBM Zürich and an applied quantum science specialist with 11 years of engineering and research experience focused on quantum algorithms, error mitigation, and fault-tolerant devices. He blends hands-on software engineering in Python, C++ and Rust with HPC, Linux system administration, and data-compression techniques to deliver performant tooling for quantum calibration and experiments. His contributions to Qiskit Experiments— including visualization modules and calibration studies on superconducting transmons—led to a co-authored arXiv preprint and an official Qiskit blog post. A former lecturer and teaching-assistant, he has practical experience running and teaching on HPC clusters and building tooling to manage student workflows at scale. Currently pursuing a PhD at EPFL after an MS in Quantum Engineering from ETH Zürich, he combines rigorous academic training with pragmatic open-source engineering.
