Paul Wang
Quantum Compiler Developer at Xanadu
Old Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolPaul Wang is a quantum compiler developer at Xanadu with three years of experience building Catalyst, a compiler for photonics-based quantum software. He combines a strong engineering foundation from University of Toronto (BASc and MSc in quantum computing) with hands-on compiler work at Huawei and LLVM/MLIR expertise, and is fluent in Python, C/C++, JAX, PennyLane, Qiskit and Strawberry Fields. His undergraduate research applied Feynman path integrals and symmetry arguments to predict bound states in classically unbounded potentials, reflecting a taste for deep theoretical problems as well as practical systems. Paul has presented optimization work at CGO/LLVM workshops and contributes to the PennyLaneAI/catalyst open-source project, bridging low-level performance tuning with quantum algorithm tooling for photonics platforms.
