Quantum Computing Internship: Superconducting Electronics (SFQ)

CEA; Grenoble; In loco; EUR 10.000 - 15.000; Part-time

Descrizione del lavoro

CEA Grenoble invites a motivated Engineering student or researcher for an internship in superconducting electronics for quantum computing. You will explore SFQ technologies, cryo-CMOS, and AQFP while contributing to hardware/software co-design and simulations.

You’ll work within the LFIM lab, gain hands-on experience with JoSim and circuit design flows, and support preparation of a potential PhD thesis in a cutting-edge field.

Competenze

• Engineering degree in physics, electronics, or microelectronics, or Master’s in applied physics, quantum electronics, or nanotechnologies.
• Experience in circuit design (analog, digital, or RF) will be a major asset.
• Experience in data processing and numerical analysis (Python, MATLAB, or similar tools).
• Knowledge of hardware description languages (Verilog, VHDL) for modeling digital systems.

Mansioni

• Technological review of SFQ, AQFP, eSFQ and related superconducting electronics.
• Identify key functions of hardware stack for QPUs and assess SFQ blocks for performance and energy.
• Circuit design and validation: implement circuits in JoSim; participate in setting up schematic capture, layout, parasitic extraction, and results analysis; validate hypotheses.
• Architectural perspectives: identify approaches and building blocks for scaling QPUs.
