Senior Measurement Quantum Engineer

The person in this role will supervise daily all measurements performed at Qilimanjaro, with more emphasis on the R&D type of measurements (flux qubits). The person will drive the measurements and by interacting on a daily basis with the junior engineers will guide them and make the characterization process at Qilimanjaro more efficient. Given the daily supervision, this person will also supervise the junior people’s reporting and measurement note taking and thus have our juniors grow in this area which is a necessity for Qilimanjaro to grow in turn.

Tasks and Responsibilities:

  • Drive the measurement activities of analog quantum processors, as well as supervise, give feedback and advise on them.

  • Be a guidance to the junior members of the team in the device measurement process, and help them grow and be empowered.

  • Liaise between with the management team on planning and roadmap development.

  • Coordinate with the rest of technical teams to improve the performance of all aspects related to device measurement (control software, device design, etc.).

  • Share tasks and responsibilities and support the general work of Qilimanjaro’s technical team.

Minimum requirements

  • PhD, or an equivalent number of years of experience.
  • Have demonstrated a strong ability in quantum microwaveMW quantum device measurement and characterization
  • Good command of English language (oral and written), including good reporting skills.
  • Good planning and management skills. to devise a series of measurements which furthers our understanding of each device.
  • Team-working, constructive attitude

Any of the following skill will be highly valued:

  • Experience in cryogenics.
  • Previous leadership role/experience.
  • Electromagnetic simulation software (e.g., HFSS, CST, Maxwell, Sonnet).
  • Nanofabrication (e.g. Lithography, evaporation, sputtering).
