Over six months, contributed to the cda-tum/mqt-core repository by building and refining MLIR-based quantum compiler infrastructure, focusing on dialect development, optimization passes, and robust build automation. Delivered features such as Dockerized CI/CD environments, quantum circuit optimizations, and advanced dialect data structures using C++, Python, and CMake. Addressed code quality through systematic refactoring, linting, and license compliance, while enhancing test coverage and documentation for maintainability. Tackled complex parsing and transformation challenges in quantum circuit representation, improving reliability and audit readiness. The work demonstrated depth in compiler development, static analysis, and quantum computing, supporting efficient, reproducible workflows for quantum software.
July 2025: Delivered fixes and quality improvements for MQTOptDialect in the cda-tum/mqt-core repo. Implemented no-target unit operation parsing and assembly formatting fixes with a NoTargetUnitaryOp refactor, improving parsing/printing for operations without target qubits (including control/neg-control). Performed thorough code quality cleanups in the MQTOpt parser and resolved clang-tidy and linter issues. Updated the changelog to document the GPhase parsing fix and added a link to the associated PR for traceability. These changes enhance dialect reliability, reduce integration risk, and improve overall maintainability and user trust in MLIR-based workflows.
