Gothenburg, Västra Götaland, Sweden Chalmers Tekniska Högskola AB Full time

Join our team of researchers as we push the boundaries of photonics and quantum engineering at Chalmers Tekniska Högskola AB.

We are on a mission to build a useful quantum computer, requiring significant advancements in quantum processor complexity to benefit fields such as chemistry and medicine.

Our Quantum Photonics Laboratory (QPL) is at the forefront of exploring the interactions between light, sound, and microwaves.

One major hurdle is the high energy loss associated with communication in both classical and emerging quantum systems, hindering the scaling up of small quantum devices.

As a researcher, you will play a crucial role in conducting experiments, collecting data, and interpreting results in collaboration with the team.

Your main task will be to develop new research skills and contribute innovative ideas to the project.

Key qualifications include self-motivation, strong problem-solving abilities, and excellent teamwork skills.

Candidates with experience in quantum engineering, photonics, nanofabrication, or related fields are highly desirable.

Applicants must hold a Master's degree in a relevant field by the starting date at the latest.

We offer a range of benefits, including competitive salaries, flexible working hours, and opportunities for professional growth and development.
