You will work in the stimulating research environment of the Wallenberg Centre for Quantum Technology (WACQT,
http://wacqt.se). The core project of the centre is to build a quantum computer based on superconducting circuits. You will be part of the Quantum Computing Group within the Quantum Technology Laboratory (QTL) at the Microtechnology and Nanoscience (MC2) department, working in a large team of PhDs, postdocs and researchers.
About the research
We are seeking postdoctoral scientists to work on building the next generation of quantum processors based on superconducting circuits. To achieve this ambitiuous goal we have a variety of projects related to:
• Simulation, design and characterization of quantum processors
• Development and optimization of nano-fabrication processes for large-scale devices
• Development of optimal control techniches to achieve fast and high-fidelity qubits operations
• Design and implementantion of automatic calibration techniques for fast tune-up
• Implementation and benchmarking of quantum algorithms
About you
• You have a relevant PhD deegree (Physics, Applied Physics, Nanotechnology, Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent), obtained no more than three years prior to the application deadline (according to the current agreement with the Swedish Agency for Government Employers)
• The ideal candidate has expertise in some of the following: design and fabrication of superconducting circuits, experimental quantum computing, microwave quantum optics, or related fields in experimental physics.
• Your verbal and written communication skills in English are good
• You are motivated for a career in quantum technology, be it in academia or industry
• You have a collaborative attitude and an interest in working collaboratively in a team environment, sharing best practices and assuming responsibility. You are self-motivated, pay attention to detail, and possess a problem-solving analytical ability. You are willing to help with the supervision of PhD and Master's students
