Job Details
- Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Physics, a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
- 2 years of industry or academic research experience in an engineering or physics field.
- 1 year of experience calibrating and operating quantum systems.
- 1 year of experience programming in Python or a related programming language.
Preferred qualifications:
- Master's or PhD degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Physics, or a related field or equivalent practical experience.
- 2 years of experience operating qubit systems (hardware agnostic).
- Experience with superconducting qubits (single and two qubit operations, readout).
- Knowledge of common qubit bench-marking techniques.
- Understanding of microwave engineering or pulse shaping techniques.
In this role, you will be a key player in ensuring our quantum processors are operating at peak performance. You will be responsible for the life-cycle of calibration, characterization, and bench-marking, from initial device bring-up to ongoing maintenance and re-calibration. Your work will directly impact the development and improvement of large-scale quantum processors and experimental devices.
The full potential of quantum computing will be unlocked with a large-scale computer capable of complex, error-corrected computations. Google Quantum AI's mission is to build this computer and unlock solutions to classically intractable problems. Our roadmap is focused on advancing the capabilities of quantum computing and enabling meaningful applications.
