Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMiloš Prokop is a Quantum Algorithm Engineer with nine years of experience blending mathematics, AI and post-quantum cryptography to translate quantum research into practical applications. Currently at IAG Transform he focuses on aerospace-relevant quantum algorithms, building on a PhD from the University of Edinburgh and published work on NISQ solvers and lattice-based cryptography. His academic and industry roles—from Rice University and SandboxAQ to internships at AIST and Max Planck—reflect a track record of turning theoretical insights into applied solutions across quantum, cryptography and computer vision. Notably, he co-authored papers on Grover-style oracles for the Shortest Vector Problem and heuristic time complexity of NISQ algorithms, highlighting a rare mix of cryptanalytic depth and near-term quantum algorithm design. Comfortable at the intersection of research and engineering, he brings a pragmatic focus on performance analysis and hybrid classical–quantum approaches that accelerate real-world adoption.
