Experimental AMO Physicist

Experimental AMO Physicist – Neutral Atom Quantum Computing

Join a team developing scalable neutral-atom quantum computers and help advance one of the most promising platforms for fault-tolerant quantum computing. You'll apply your expertise in experimental AMO physics to design, build, characterise, and optimise next-generation quantum processors alongside multidisciplinary teams of physicists and engineers.

• Design, build, characterise, and optimise neutral-atom quantum processors.
• Execute measurement campaigns, monitor system performance, and maintain stable operation.
• Investigate and mitigate sources of noise, decoherence, and gate errors.
• Analyse experimental data to drive hardware improvements and performance optimisation.
• Contribute new ideas by applying the latest advances in AMO physics and quantum information.

• PhD or Postdoctoral experience in AMO Physics.
• Hands-on experience with neutral-atom platforms or closely related experimental quantum hardware.
• Strong experimental, debugging, and system optimisation skills.
• Proven ability to independently drive complex experimental research.
• Experience with experimental control, data acquisition, and data analysis (Python preferred).
• Peer-reviewed publications in AMO Physics or Quantum Information.

• Optical tweezers or optical lattices.
• Atomic clocks or atom interferometry.
• Quantum gates and neutral-atom quantum computing.
