Senior Quantum Scientist, Spin Qubits & Calibration

Airbus Ventures; Los Angeles (CA); In loco; USD 150.000 - 225.000; Tempo pieno

Descrizione del lavoro

Q-CTRL seeks a quantum calibration software engineer to develop software for calibration and optimization of quantum dot devices. You will build robust routines for coarse tuning, calibrate high-fidelity single- and two-qubit gates, and optimize processor-scale performance.

You will collaborate with cross-functional teams to turn research insights into production-grade tools and communicate results clearly.

Competenze

• An advanced degree in Physics, Engineering, or a closely related discipline.
• PhD preferred, but exceptional candidates with industry experience considered.
• 3+ years of research experience in a relevant field.
• Experience in tune-up and characterization of quantum dots.
• Proficiency in Python, C++, or Rust and software development best practices.

Mansioni

• Perform cryogenic measurements and characterization of quantum dot-based qubits.
• Invent, implement, and test novel control protocols for all bring-up steps, from coarse tuning to optimizing two-qubit gates.
• Develop scalable protocols for processor-wide optimization (cross-talk, leakage, defect mitigation) and real-time retuning.
• Collaborate with engineering and product teams to translate research into production-level software.
• Explain, document, and present research solutions in accessible language.
• Engage with researchers at partnering companies to discuss current and future calibration routines.
