Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDima Fedoriaka is a Senior Quantum Software Engineer at Microsoft with a decade of experience building scalable systems across Google, Databricks, and Microsoft. He combines deep distributed-systems expertise from roles on Spanner and Core Data Foundations with hands-on quantum software development, contributing core functionality to the widely used Cirq library (including multi-controlled gate decomposition and expanded Clifford simulator support). Based in Kirkland, WA, he brings a rare blend of applied mathematics and physics training from MIPT and ongoing computer science graduate work at the University of Washington. Dima’s background spans backend optimization, circuit manipulation, and making quantum primitives more robust and immutable—practical improvements that ease real-world NISQ workflows. Colleagues rely on him for shipping hard-to-reproduce infrastructure changes and for translating research-grade quantum algorithms into production-quality code. He’s equally comfortable navigating low-level algorithmic detail and large-scale cloud system design.

Backend Developer
Backend DeveloperContributions:23 reviews, 12 commits, 16 PRs in 1 year 5 months
Contributions summary:Dima contributed to the core functionality of the cirq library, specifically focusing on quantum circuit manipulation and optimization. Their work included implementing an `__add__` method for `Moment` objects and making `LineQubit` and `GridQubit` immutable. They also added an algorithm for decomposing multi-controlled rotation gates and implemented indexing by qubits for circuits and moments. Finally they also added support for all possible 1-qubit Clifford gates in Clifford simulator.
