Quantum Applications Scientist

Job description

The mission of the Quantum-Enabled Computation Group is to explore, prototype, and demonstrate transformative computational advantage by leveraging quantized and entangled signals. Our work falls into three key thrusts: quantum computing with superconducting qubits, classical computing with single flux quanta in superconducting circuits, and quantum information science and algorithms. We also enable the broader US research enterprise via superconducting device foundries and open-source software development, and support the US Government as strategic Test and Evaluation partners and subject matter experts. Our interdisciplinary Group includes scientific experts in computer science, quantum information, device theory, materials science, fabrication and integration engineering, electrical and microwave engineering, and quantum physics. Job Description: Our group at MIT Lincoln Laboratory seeks a full-time technical staff member to perform research on promising applications for quantum computation. This researcher would work within a group that is defining new applications for quantum computing, designing quantum algorithms for these applications, developing logical circuit implementat...
