Team Lead, Research​/Development

osition: CW Research Scientist PhD Degree

Location:

Ann Arbor, MI

Client Billing Rate : XXXXk

Key Responsibilities:

• Synthesize pristine materials, engineer spin-defects and characterize a class of quantum materials with Optically Detected Magnetic Resonance (ODMR), photoluminescence (PL), cathodoluminescence (CL), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and other techniques.
• Work closely with a team of scientists to fabricate various types of quantum sensing devices.
• Frequently communicate with materials scientist within the organization.
• Effectively respond to the challenges emerging in materials research.
• Regularly report and present to the research team and managements.

Minimum Requirements:

• PhD degree in the Physical Sciences (Physics/Chemistry), Material Science or related field or equivalent practical experience with

an MS degree.

• Strong background in quantum physics, and/or condensed matter physics and/or quantum optics.

• Experience in synthesizing and defect engineering of low-dimensional materials, and characterizing defect-specific emission

signatures by various techniques.

• Strong verbal and written communication skills.

• Self-motivated, intelligent individual with initiative and drive for overcoming technical challenges.

Preferred Requirements:

• Basic knowledge of density function theory (DFT) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation to analyze spin-defect formation and

understanding of carrier dynamics is a plus.

• Record of publication in the areas of quantum materials as 1st author.
