Research Assistant (Quantum Sensing Engineer) Full-time

Quantum Sensing Engineer Research Assistant

The Nanyang Quantum Solutions team led by Prof. Marek Gluza at NTU Singapore is seeking a new member to propose new engineering solutions for table top setup prototyping the translation of dynamic quantum algorithms such as double-bracket algorithmic cooling to applications in quantum sensing using NV centers.

With whom? With Prof. Marek Gluza at NTU Singapore who is eager to debate with you whether NMR-type readout will be sufficient for the technological applications we have in mind. The research group is being formed and see https://marekgluza.github.io/ for the intended culture centered on the idea of serving experimental efforts through theoretical support developing quantum middleware solutions.

Key Responsibilities:

• Propose feasibility and cost analysis of a table top NV center readout setup using commercially available lasers and microwave resonators.
• Propose readout solutions and techniques for quantum sensor use in material science fabrication pipelines.
• Translate dynamic quantum algorithms such as double-bracket agorithmic cooling into actionable protocols in NV center ensembles.

Job Requirements:

• Bachelor's degree in mathematics, physics, computer science or related field
• Knowledge in engineering, e.g. laser, mechanical or electrical engineering
• Excellent written and oral communication skills
• Proficiency in Ansys and related packages
• Ability to work independently, develop solutions under strict timelines, meticulous and eye for details, excellent organizational and time management skills.
