Your Quantum Computing trainer

Rajesh Kumar

Principal DevOps Engineer & Architect

20 years in productionPrincipal / architect roles10,000+ engineers trainedM.Tech BITS Pilani25+ certifications

Rajesh teaches Quantum Computing the way an engineer needs it rather than the way a physics course delivers it: state vectors and gates built up from linear algebra you actually use, circuits written and run in Qiskit against simulators first, then transpiled onto a real device coupling map so attendees see depth inflate and fidelity drop. Sessions cover Deutsch-Jozsa, Grover and phase estimation as working code, variational methods with a classical optimiser in the loop, noise models and error mitigation, and a deliberately sceptical treatment of where quantum advantage does and does not exist — plus the post-quantum cryptography migration that most teams will meet before they ever meet a quantum computer.

Twenty years across DevOps, SRE and Security, in principal and architect roles at PayPay, SoftwareAG, ServiceNow, JDA Software, Intuit, Adobe and others. He has trained engineers at JPMorgan Chase, Verizon, Nokia, the World Bank, VMware, Oracle, Mercedes-Benz and Airbus — more than 10,000 people personally. He teaches what he runs, not what he reads.

One practitioner, not a bench

You are booked with a named engineer, and that is who turns up. Marketplaces and larger providers rotate whoever is free, so the person who sold you the agenda is rarely the person teaching it.

The same trainer is available for the next engagement, which matters when a team builds on what it learned last time.

Who delivers Quantum Computing engagements

Your batch is assigned a named trainer before it starts, and that is who teaches it. See the full faculty.

How your Quantum Computing trainer is chosen

Engagements are matched on the tool, not the calendar. For Quantum Computing that means a trainer who has run it in production — qubits, gates and circuits — running real algorithms on simulators and cloud quantum hardware — rather than whoever is free that week. You are told who is teaching before you commit, and that person is on the discovery call that shapes the agenda.

Where a batch is large enough to need a second trainer, the pairing is declared up front. The lead trainer stays accountable for the syllabus and the assessment either way.

# private batches

Private Quantum Computing training for your team

A private batch starts with a discovery call. We look at the stack you actually run — the CI system, the cloud, the constraints — and map the agenda onto it, so examples use your topology rather than a generic one.

Delivery is onsite at your premises, live online, or hybrid, scheduled around your release calendar rather than ours. Batches run 8 to 30 engineers.

Every attendee leaves with recordings, slides, lab repositories and a completion certificate. You receive an attendance and assessment report. Invoicing supports PO and GST.

What is Quantum Computing?

Quantum Computing is a model of computation that stores information in qubits rather than bits. A qubit is not simply a bit that is both zero and one; it is a state vector whose amplitudes are complex numbers, and a register of n qubits carries 2^n amplitudes that evolve together. Computation proceeds by applying unitary gates — Hadamard, Pauli X/Y/Z, phase, CNOT, Toffoli — that rotate that state, and by using interference so that amplitudes on wrong answers cancel and amplitudes on right answers reinforce. Measurement then collapses the register to a classical bitstring, which is why quantum programs are run many times and read as a distribution rather than a single return value.

That mechanism buys speedup only for problems whose structure matches it. Shor's algorithm factors integers in polynomial time because periodicity is exposed by the quantum Fourier transform. Grover's algorithm gives a quadratic speedup on unstructured search. Variational methods such as VQE and QAOA use a shallow parameterised circuit with a classical optimiser in the loop, which is what makes them runnable on today's hardware. Most workloads gain nothing at all, and knowing which category a problem falls into is the practical skill.

The hardware available now is noisy and intermediate-scale. Qubits decohere in microseconds, two-qubit gates carry error rates around a percent, and circuits must be transpiled onto a physical coupling map with limited connectivity, which inflates depth with SWAP gates. Working in Quantum Computing today therefore means simulators for correctness, noise models for realism, error mitigation for usable results, and cloud-queued hardware access through toolkits such as Qiskit, Cirq or PennyLane.

Why this skill matters now

Quantum hardware moved from physics laboratories to cloud endpoints. IBM, AWS Braket, Azure Quantum, IonQ and Rigetti all expose devices behind an API, so an engineer can submit a circuit to real hardware in an afternoon without owning a dilution refrigerator. That changed the skill from theoretical to practical, and it changed who needs it.

Two pressures are driving organisational interest. The first is exploratory: banks, logistics firms, chemical and materials companies are funding small teams to determine whether optimisation, simulation or sampling problems in their portfolio have any quantum advantage, and they need people who can give an honest answer rather than a vendor's. The second is defensive and much more concrete — post-quantum cryptography. NIST has standardised replacement algorithms, harvest-now-decrypt-later is a real threat model, and every security and platform team will eventually own a crypto-agility migration.

The demand is for grounded people. The field has more hype than engineers, and the valuable skill is being able to build a circuit, run it on noisy hardware, read the result honestly, and say clearly when a classical solver would do better.

03Qubits, gates and circuits in QiskitLive & Interactive5 hrs · 2 assignments · 1 capstone

From notation to running code. Building circuits in Qiskit, applying single- and multi-qubit gates, creating entanglement, measuring, and reading a result as a distribution over shots rather than a single answer.

06Variational algorithms and quantum machine learningLive & Interactive5 hrs · 2 assignments · 1 capstone

The hybrid approach that is actually runnable today. Parameterised circuits with a classical optimiser in the loop — VQE for ground-state energies, QAOA for combinatorial optimisation — plus a sceptical look at quantum machine learning and where barren plateaus stop it.

Topics: Parameterised circuits and ansatz design · Classical optimisers in the loop and their cost per iteration · VQE for molecular ground states · QAOA for MaxCut and portfolio-style optimisation · Encoding classical data: amplitude, angle and basis encoding · Quantum kernels and variational classifiers · Barren plateaus and trainability limits · Benchmarking honestly against a classical solver

# questions

Frequently asked

Do we need access to a real quantum computer?
No purchase is required. Most work runs on simulators, and hardware labs use free-tier cloud access from IBM Quantum, AWS Braket or Azure Quantum, which we walk attendees through provisioning. Queue times are built into the lab schedule.
How much physics background is required?
None beyond the mathematics. The course teaches the linear algebra it needs — state vectors, tensor products, unitary matrices — as the circuits demand it. Attendees who have not touched matrices in a decade are the normal case, not the exception.
Will this let us solve a real business problem faster?
Almost certainly not today, and the course says so directly. What it will do is let you judge which problems have any plausible structure for quantum advantage, model one properly, and benchmark it honestly against a classical solver instead of taking a vendor's word.
Which toolkit do you teach?
Qiskit is the default because its hardware access, transpiler and documentation are the most complete. Cirq and PennyLane are covered comparatively, and a private batch can be rebuilt around either if that is what your team already uses.
Can the agenda be customised for our stack?
Yes — that is the normal case for a private batch. We start with a discovery call, look at the problem domain and toolkit you actually work in, and rebuild the module list around them. Financial optimisation, chemistry simulation and cryptographic migration are common re-weightings.
Is the post-quantum cryptography module useful on its own?
Yes, and it is the module most enterprise teams need first. It covers what Shor breaks, harvest-now-decrypt-later, the NIST-standardised algorithms, cryptographic inventory and crypto-agility, and can be extended into a standalone day for security teams.
Do you deliver onsite?
Yes. Private batches run onsite at your premises, live online, or hybrid. You provide the room and the engineers; we bring the trainer, agenda, labs, assessment and certificates.
How long does a private Quantum Computing batch take?
Typically three to four days. Two days covers foundations, circuits and the core algorithms; adding hardware execution, error mitigation, variational methods and post-quantum cryptography brings it to four.
What lab environment do we need?
Attendees provision their own environment — a Python setup with Qiskit locally or in a hosted notebook, plus a free cloud quantum account — and we walk them through it. We deliberately do not hand out temporary sandboxes, because the environment they build is the one they keep.
What size are batches?
Private corporate batches run 8 to 30 engineers. Public Live & Interactive cohorts are capped at 10 so everyone gets time with the trainer.
Do attendees get a certificate?
Yes — every attendee receives a completion certificate, verifiable at devopsschool.com/certificates. Corporate batches also receive an attendance and assessment report.
What is your refund position?
If we cancel or postpone a cohort, you receive a full refund within 15 days. There is no general money-back guarantee, and GST and gateway fees are not refunded.
