contents Quantum computing has garnered attention for its potential to solve complex computational problems with considerable speedup. Despite notable advancements in the field, achieving meaningful scalability and noise control in quantum hardware remains challenging. Incoherent errors caused by decoherence restrict the total computation time, making it very short. While hardware advancements continue to progress, quantum software specialists seek to minimize quantum circuit latency to mitigate dissipation. However, at the pulse level, fast quantum gates often lead to leakage, leaving minimal room for further optimization. Recent advancements have shown the effectiveness of quantum control techniques in generating quantum gates robust to coherent error sources. Nevertheless, these techniques come with a trade-off -- extended gate durations. In this paper, we introduce an alternative pulse scheduling approach that enables the use of both fast and robust quantum gates within the same quantum circuit. The time-optimization framework models the quantum circuit as a dependency graph, implements the fastest quantum gates on the critical path, and uses idle periods outside the critical path to optimally implement longer, more robust gates from the gate set, without increasing latency. Experiments conducted on IBMQ Brisbane show that this approach improves the absolute success probability of quantum circuit execution by more than 25%, with performance gains scaling as the number of qubits increases.
