Marta P Estarellas

Chief Executive Officer at Qilimanjaro Quantum Tech

Marta P Estarellas has a diverse work experience in the field of quantum computing and quantum information. Marta is currently working as the Chief Executive Officer at Qilimanjaro Quantum Tech, where they are responsible for developing the product strategy and technological roadmaps. Prior to this, they held the position of Chief Product Officer at the same company, where they collaborated with various teams to align the product strategy with business objectives.

Marta also has experience as a Senior Quantum Engineer and Team Lead at Qilimanjaro Quantum Tech, where they led a team of researchers in developing superconducting-based analog quantum devices and quantum algorithms. Marta also worked closely with clients to understand their industry use-cases and develop customized proof-of-concepts.

Before joining Qilimanjaro Quantum Tech, Marta worked at the National Institute of Informatics as a Visiting Assistant Professor and later as a Postdoctoral Researcher. During their time there, they focused on developing optimization methods for quantum algorithms and studying many-body systems for quantum simulation. Marta also introduced novel machine learning methods for quantum computing.

Marta's early career includes a position as a Visiting Researcher at the University of York, where they studied the dynamics of spin systems for quantum information applications. Marta also worked as a PhD Researcher at the same university, investigating theoretical models for manipulating quantum information, analyzing their robustness and dynamics.

Overall, Marta P Estarellas has a strong background in quantum computing, with experience in leadership, product development, theoretical research, and collaboration with clients.

Marta P Estarellas pursued their education in a chronological order, starting from 2007 to 2018. Marta attained a Bachelor of Science (BSc) degree in Chemistry from Universitat de les Illes Balears in 2011, followed by a Bachelor of Science (BSc) in Chemistry from Miami University in 2012. Marta then went on to obtain a Master of Science (MSc) degree in Theoretical Chemistry and Computational Modelling from Universitat de les Illes Balears, which they completed in 2014. Continuing their academic journey, Marta pursued a Bachelor of Engineering (BEng) degree in Computer Engineering from Universitat Oberta de Catalunya, which they pursued from 2012 to 2021. Finally, they achieved their highest degree, a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Physics from the University of York, which they accomplished between 2014 and 2018.

Qilimanjaro Quantum Tech

Qilimanjaro’s integrated hardware & software team focuses on coherent quantum annealing high-quality qubit architectures to deliver scalable app-specific fully quantum processors and algorithmic services in a short timeframe.Qilimanjaro focuses on time-to-market by designing coherent quantum annealers, which do not require quantum errorcorrection and can be therefore faster-to-market. Annealers are known to optimally address certain problem categories, specifically optimization problems and Quantum Machine Learning.These categories are central to many real-world use cases across industries (logistics, traffic management, financial risk assessments, etc.), and will garner a clear demand.Specifically, Qilimanjaro’s architecture is designed on the basis of coherent qubits, whereby longer coherent times allow complex calculations to be performed in the real quantum regime, leveraging true quantum phenomena and therefore its computing capabilities.Existing quantum annealing industry players are focusing on incoherent qubits and, so far, do not show indications of exceeding conventional computing capabilities.
