Entangled-Photon Source Research Engineer

Job description

About Quandela: Quandela is a European deeptech scale-up building modular, scalable and energy-efficient photonic quantum computers, accessible both on the cloud and on-premise. With a team of more than 140 people, we develop our own hardware and software stack, from semiconductor quantum emitters and photonic integrated circuits to quantum control systems and algorithms. Our ambition is to turn cutting-edge quantum optics into operational quantum computing systems. Within this roadmap, hybrid architectures combining photonic qubits and spin-based quantum memories play a central role in enabling scalable cluster-state quantum computing. About this position: Located at IPVF in Massy, this position is part of the Semiconductor R&D division and integrated within the Spin Cluster / Cooling team. The team develops experimental platforms enabling spin-photon and spin-spin entanglement. Within this framework, your role will focus on stabilizing and improving spin-photon cluster state generation while implementing fast optical control schemes operating at nanosecond time scales. Working at the interface between theory and experiment, you will translate cluster-state protocols into robust a...
