Systems Engineer for the Development of Superconducting Parametric Amplifier Technology
vor 2 Monaten
The Quantum Device Lab at ETH Zürich (ETHZ) led by Prof. Wallraff and the Hybrid Quantum Circuits Lab at EPFL led by Prof. Scarlino are seeking highly motivated candidates to join our collaborative effort, which aims to push the boundaries of quantum technology. We are looking for talented individuals to advance research on parametric amplifiers and their applications in quantum information processing. Join us in this pioneering project that offers the unique opportunity to contribute to groundbreaking research and lay the groundwork to start a venture.
The positions are available starting from November 1, 2024. We will start reviewing applications on August 1, 2024, and continue the process until the positions are filled.
Project backgroundOur project is a joint initiative between the Quantum Device Lab at ETH Zürich and the Hybrid Quantum Circuits Lab at EPFL. This collaboration has secured an Innosuisse grant to advance the capabilities of parametric amplifiers based on superconducting circuits. Both labs have a proven track record of successful research on parametric amplifiers and will assemble a talented team to elevate this research to the next level.
We are offering three positions in our teams:
- Postdoctoral Researcher: Responsible for optimizing the design of circuit quantum electrodynamics (cQED) devices in simulations and experiments to enhance the capability of our amplifiers.
- Fabrication Engineer: Main responsibilities include optimizing fabrication recipes and developing processes for a new generation of devices.
- Systems Engineer: Responsible for optimizing the cryogenic packaging of the amplifiers, a key aspect for optimal device performance.
This collaborative effort combines the strengths and resources of both laboratories to advance the development of cutting-edge quantum technology. These positions are uniquely situated at the interface between academia and industry, providing an exciting opportunity to contribute to groundbreaking research with diverse future career possibilities.
During the project, the successful candidates will be at the forefront of experimental research, both independently and as members of our research teams. You will be part of an international team working on quantum devices both at ETH Zürich and EPFL. Each position is initially limited to a term of eighteen months, with potential for extension. All three new team members will contribute to regular team meetings to report on project progress. Specifically, their responsibilities will include:
- Design and simulation of packaging for parametric amplifiers to minimize mismatches, thermal gradients and to ensure optimal magnetic field shielding.
- Exploration of novel packaging solutions for future iterations of the device.
Your research will benefit from the comprehensive infrastructure, expertise, and collaborative network available within our research groups.
ProfileWe are seeking candidates with a strong interest in quantum technology based on superconducting quantum circuits. Proficiency in English, in reading, writing and discussing scientific material, is essential, along with strong teamwork and excellent communication skills.
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Engineering, Physics, or a related field.
- Proficiency in CAD software and design tools.
- Proficiency in Printed Circuit Board design tools.
- Organizational skills.
- Initiative and creativity in developing innovative packaging methods.
Joining our collaborative research project provides access to a stimulating and inspiring work environment at ETH Zurich and EPFL in Switzerland.
In line with our values, ETH Zurich encourages an inclusive culture. We promote equality of opportunity, value diversity and nurture a working and learning environment in which the rights and dignity of all our staff and students are respected.
Curious? So are we.We look forward to receiving your online application with the following documents in PDF format:
- Detailed curriculum vitae (CV).
- List of publications.
- Statement of research interests, including a brief overview of your background, motivation, and skills.
- PDF copies of transcripts/certificates of your undergraduate and graduate studies and PDF copies of your (Master’s, Bachelor’s, PhD) research theses.
- Names of three contacts for references (Please arrange for reference letters to be sent directly by email to simone.frasca@phys.ethz.ch).
Please note that we exclusively accept applications submitted through our online application portal. Applications via email or postal services will not be considered.
