Research Scientist – Quantum & AI Photonic Chip Simulation

Job description

Location: Hoboken, NJ Department: Tomorrow Reports to: Ting Bu Position Overview: The Research Scientist will work on the modeling, simulation, and architectural development of quantum and artificial intelligence (AI) computational structures intended for chip-scale implementation. This role focuses on translating advanced quantum and AI concepts into physically realistic, simulation-validated device and system designs suitable for fabrication. It concentrates on high-fidelity simulation, feasibility analysis, and performance optimization under practical fabrication constraints. The role serves as a technical bridge between the research team developing novel quantum/AI architectures and the chip fabrication team responsible for implementation, ensuring that proposed designs are physically realizable, scalable, and performance-optimized prior to tape-out. Duties and Responsibilities ● Develop and simulate quantum and AI-based photonic architectures for on-chip implementation. ● Translate high-level computational concepts into device-level and system-level simulation models. ● Perform rigorous electromagnetic and multiphysics simulations to evaluate optical, nonlinear, and quantum ef...
