Advanced Quantum Testbed (AQT) Postdoctoral Fellow

Berkeley Lab's Applied Mathematics Computational Research Division (AMCR) has an immediate opening in the Quantum Information Science and Technology Group (QuIST ) for a Postdoc Follow in support of The Advanced Quantum Testbed (AQT) project as well as future superconducting based Quantum Information Science and Technology efforts.

The AQT program is focused on constructing, enhancing, operating, and maintaining an open, fully accessible gate-based quantum computer. Our technology platform is based on superconducting quantum circuit processors, and we aim to generate the detailed experimental findings needed to resolve foundational questions in quantum information science, and to guide near-term hardware and algorithm co-design.

What You Will Do :

• Specialized research in conception and execution of quantum algorithms on superconducting hardware.
• Design and conduct state-of-the-art experiments using superconducting quantum processors for quantum information science.
• Troubleshoot noise processes on quantum hardware and design and implement mitigation strategies.
• Validate, analyze, and interpret experimental data.
• Develop algorithms for near-term hardware based on critical evaluation of the literature, and original thinking.
• Design quantum simulations on superconducting processors for physics, chemistry, and computer science.
• Firmware development & programming tools to interface with FPGA-based electronics.
• Quantum verification and validation.
• Design and fabrication of superconducting devices.
