Job Description

• Analyze the impact of non-Markovian quantum processes on our systems. • Consult with hardware and design teams to identify potential sources of non-Markovian errors. • Develop and analyze benchmarking and validation protocols for our systems, covering domains from the optical subsystems to FT logic tests. • Optimize theoretical protocols to maximize sensitivity to drifting and fluctuating noise sources. • Work with the validation team in the development of specific protocols to be built in the control system and provision for the necessary data acquisition subsystems, test goals and test strategies. • Develop control strategies to optimize system performance based on dynamic system performance metrics.

Job Requirements

PhD in quantum physics discipline, preferably quantum optics or quantum information.
10+ years of experience in benchmarking quantum systems with a background in non-Markovian quantum processes.
Ability to collaborate effectively across departments, sites, and time zones.
Capability to communicate and negotiate with multiple teams of varying technical backgrounds.
A hands-on mentality to own challenges and develop solutions independently.
