Research Fellow (Atomic Physics - Senior Physics Lead)

About the Centre for Quantum Technologies (CQT)The Centre for Quantum Technologies (CQT) in Singapore brings together physicists, computer scientists, and engineers to do basic research on quantum physics and to build devices based on quantum phenomena.
Experts in this new discipline of quantum technologies are applying their discoveries in computing, communications, and sensing.CQT is hosted by the National University of Singapore, with staff at the Agency for Science, Technology and Research, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, and the Singapore University of Technology and Design.
With some 200 staff and students, it offers a friendly and international work environment.Learn more about CQT at www.quantumlah.orgJob DescriptionThe Centre for Quantum Technologies (CQT), National University of Singapore, is looking for researchers and engineers to develop next-generation quantum computers based on trapped ions.
There are multiple positions available at different levels with a diverse set of expertise.
This program is funded under the National Quantum Processor Initiative, a flagship program under the National Quantum Office Singapore.
The aim of the program is to develop a full-stack quantum processor based on Yb-Ba ions, bringing together the unique capabilities of the existing ion trap groups in CQT, specializing in these two-ion species to explore scalability of the system.CQT is a pioneering quantum center in the world, offering a diverse research culture at the intersection of theoretical and experimental physics and computer science.
We offer competitive salaries and an enriching intellectual experience in a city-state known for its forward outlook.
This program also allows strong collaboration with leading academic and industrial groups within and outside the country.The Senior Physics Lead will be directly responsible for overseeing the development of the quantum processor on a day-to-day basis and will report to the principal investigator.
The ideal candidate is expected to have experience in delivering complex, time-bound projects in a fast-paced environment.Job RequirementsWe are looking for energetic, innovative, and hands-on individuals with a PhD in Physics or Electrical Engineering.
The candidate should have completed a PhD in atomic, molecular, and optical physics or have post-PhD research experience of 1-3 years in this field.
She/he should be a problem solver with a strong interest in the engineering aspects of the experiment.More InformationLocation: Kent Ridge CampusOrganization: National University of SingaporeDepartment: Centre for Quantum TechnologiesJob Requisition ID: 26138
