PostDoc

Oxford University’s Quantum Technology Theory Group led by Simon Benjamin is recruiting a postdoc in “Quantum Theory for Early Quantum Computers”.

We’re looking for an exceptionally talented and motivated theorist to join the team. The successful applicant will perform research in one or more of the following topics: quantum algorithms, compilers, architectures, and error tolerance protocols. Close interaction is anticipated with experimental groups in Oxford, across the UK, and internationally.

This project concerns the implementation of complex quantum networks, i.e. quantum systems organized in a complex structure depicted as networks, and their exploitation for quantum simulations and optimized quantum information
technologies.
The experimental implementation is based on multimode quantum process based on parametric interaction and time/frequency modes of femtosecond lasers (near-infrared and telecom wavelengths). Networks structures are encoded in the quantum correlations of continuous variables of the involved fields.

A 2-year postdoc and a fully funded 4-year PhD-student position are available in the „Young Independent Researcher Group“ lead by Dr. Yelena Guryanova, Dr. Ämin Baumeler, and Dr. Costantino Budroni. This group is inter-institutional; it is affiliated with the Institute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information (IQOQI), Austrian Academy of Sciences, Vienna, as well as with the Department of Physics, University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria.

Within the the EU QT-Flagship, the OpenSuperQ consortium will build a cloud-based superconducting quantum computer at Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden. As part of this effort, we are currently seeking a Postdoc in Computational Quantum Chemistry, who will work in the Chalmers team modelling physical systems on quantum computers.

The quantum group in Malta is looking to recruit an experienced postdoctoral researcher in the field of topological optomechanical devices. This is a two-year position funded by the Julian Schwinger Foundation.

This project aims to investigate optomechanical arrays as a platform for the amplification, processing, and routing of phonons. It will feature close collaboration with Dr Vittorio Peano (Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light, Erlangen).

The Quantum Technologies Group at the University of Tennessee (http://quantum.utk.edu) is accepting applications for postdoctoral positions to start Fall 2019. We are particularly interested in candidates with experience in quantum sensing and applications. The positions are for two years with a possible extension to three years and limited to US citizens. If you are interested in applying, please send a current CV, list of publications, a research proposal, and the names of three references.
