Haoran Liao is a senior research scientist specializing in quantum computing with nine years of experience spanning academia and industry. Currently at Q-CTRL, he focuses on quantum error correction, superconducting qubit device physics, and quantum algorithms, building on a Ph.D. from UC Berkeley. His work bridges theory and experiment, from tensor-network methods and open-system dynamics developed during his graduate research to hands-on mitigation and characterization of superconducting qubits during an IBM internship. Haoran has led multiple research projects documented on his project page, demonstrating an ability to translate advanced quantum science into practical control and error-suppression techniques. He combines rigorous mathematical training from McGill with applied lab experience, making him effective at closing the loop between algorithm design and device-level implementation. Colleagues describe him as a researcher who pursues both conceptual depth and experimentally verifiable solutions.
