Q
Junior Quantum Calibration Engineer
On-siteFull-timeApplied PhysicsQuantum Computing
Work on calibration and characterization of superconducting quantum processors, using experimental measurements, data analysis, and software automation to maintain QPU performance.
Responsibilities
- Define calibration KPIs and maintain QPU performance within specification across resonators, qubits, couplers, and control parameters.
- Analyze calibration history, parameter drift, and single- and two-qubit gate performance to identify trends, correlations, and failure modes.
- Design calibration and characterization experiments and protocols for single- and two-qubit gates.
- Support scalable software development for automated QPU bring-up and tune-up workflows.
Requirements
- MSc in Physics, Electrical Engineering, or an equivalent field.
- At least 2 years of hands-on experience with experimental measurements, laboratory systems, or quantum hardware.
- Strong background in data analysis and statistical methods.
- Experience with RF or microwave electronics and measurement techniques, preferably in superconducting qubit systems.
- Software development experience in Python, C++, or an equivalent object-oriented language.
Nice to have
- PhD in Physics, Electrical Engineering, or an equivalent field.
- Experience with superconducting qubit platforms, particularly transmon systems.
- Familiarity with laboratory control and automation stacks or calibration and monitoring pipelines.
- Published research or presentations in quantum information science.
