5 Postdoc and PhD positions: Superconducting Circuit Quantum Technologies 1472 views

QUINFOG – Quantum Information and Foundations Group is offering postdoctoral and PhD positions to work in the field of superconducting circuit quantum technologies.

About the positions:
  • The positions are associated to two EU FET-Open projects led in Madrid by Juan José García-Ripoll in which we will collaborate with international experts in superconducting circuits, quantum computing and quantum optimization.
  • One postdoctoral position funded by a Spanish national project in the field of theoretical quantum technologies, led by senior researchers Alejandro González-Tudela, Diego Porras and J.J. García-Ripoll. This
  • The new recruits will join a young and very active group, working in quantum hardware for quantum technology, from quantum optics to quantum software, including quantum control and condensed matter physics.

The positions and projects

Position 1 (code: P1): Postdoctoral researcher to work in novel architectures for quantum annealing and quantum computation, using superconducting qubits. AVaQus (EU). 1+1 years @PD contract 1, starting in Oct. 1st 2020 or later

Position 2 (code: P2): PhD position to work in the design and modelization new superconducting circuits, including qubits, tuneable couplers and other architectural elements for quantum optimization and quantum computing. AVaQus (EU). 3 years, starting Oct. 1st 2020

Position 3 (code: P3): Postdoctoral researcher developing protocols for distributed quantum computations, distributed quantum memories and superconducting quantum networks, all with a strong focus on a superconducting circuit-based hardware. SuperQuLan (EU). 1+1 years@PD contract 1, starting Sept. 1st 2020 or later

Position 4 (code: P4):PhD researcher working in the study, modelization control of light-matter interactions in superconducting circuits, with the goal of implementing perfect state transfer, quantum gates on flying qubits and other quantum information protocols. SuperQuLan (EU). 3 years, starting Sept. 1st 2020

Position 5 (code: P5): Postdoctoral researcher joining the group in any of the topics of interest in QUINFOG (quantum optics, quantum computing and quantum annealing, quantum simulation, computational methods in quantum physics). The ideal candidate is a talented theorist with the ambition to join a vibrant group and carry out research that is both scientifically exciting and connected to applications. Frontiers in Quantum Simulation (PGC, Spain). 1+1 years@PD contract 2, starting Sept. 1st 2020 or later

Requirements:

  • Applications are open to candidates with a M.Sc in Physics.
  • Applicants with a degree from a university outside Spain must have an “equivalence certificate”. This is a document that certifies your degree / master studies are equivalent to a Spanish Physics degree. If you do not have the certificate, you can apply with a document stating that you have applied for it (which you can do online).

Applications:

Interested candidate write an email to quinfog@gmail.com, with the following information:

  • Motivation letter, detailing which positions candidate is interested in;
  • CV including at least education, job experience, scientific production and a list of references for possible recommendations;
  • In the case of PhD, please include marks in the CV;
  • In both cases, please detail the university and country where the Physics degree has been obtained.
