Job description

Center for Quantum technology, NTU seeks a diverse and inclusive workforce and is committed to equality of opportunity. We welcome applications from all and recruit on the basis of merit, regardless of age, race, gender, religion, marital status and family responsibilities, or disability.

We are looking for a Research Assistant to be in charge of an experimental project aiming to couple light with a dense atomic medium to study cooperative effects with application in quantum sensing. The role will focus on developing the experiment, take and analyze data. The successful candidate will join an experimental team working with an ultracold system. Candidate will work on cooperative effect in light-matter coupling. To reach this regime, the atomic medium will be compressed in an optical dipole trap to obtain the required density. The candidate will be in direct supervision with an experienced research fellow.

Key Responsibilities:

• Perform the necessary technical developments on the experimental setup to achieve the scientific objectives.
• Maintain the system in good working condition
• Report, at least on a weekly basis, to the principal investigator
• Prepare and use the necessary data analysis tools

Job Requirements:

• Bachelor’s degree in Physics.
• At least 3 months of experience in experimental optics.

We regret to inform that only shortlisted candidates will be notified.
