We are looking for a talented and ambitious candidate to join our team in developing next-generation quantum sensors. The position will focus on modeling the dynamics and fabricating cryogenic components for the superconducting levitation of ferromagnetic particles.
This levitated, freely precessing particle forms a system of correlated spins, capable of rapidly averaging out quantum uncertainty. By harnessing this system, we aim to develop quantum sensors with sensitivities that exceed the standard quantum limit.
This position is based in the Quantum Innovation Centre (Q.Inc) and Institute of Materials Research and Engineering (IMRE). The successful candidate will contribute to a range of innovative activities, including:
Key Responsibilities:
- Modeling the dynamics of the levitated particle
- Microfabrication of the particle, silicon pocket, and superconducting materials
- Learning to operate a dilution refrigerator
Job Requirements:
- Bachelor's or master’s in physics, Applied Physics, Precise Instrumentation, or related fields
- Past experience in the job activities listed above is preferred, but a strong willingness to learn is sufficient. Trainings will be provided.
- Strong motivation for multidisciplinary research
- Prior experience in superconductivity and/or quantum sensing is highly preferred
- Basic programming skills (e.g., Python, MATLAB)
- Mechanical design
- Ability to work as a team and communicate effectively
