Photonics Research Scientist PHASER

Lead research on optical computation: recurrent optical dynamics, nonlinearities and the physics of energy per operation.

• Set the research agenda for PHASER's computational capabilities
• Design experiments, in simulation and on the bench, and report results rigorously
• Develop models of noise, loss and gain that predict real hardware
• Publish and present findings

• PhD in physics, optics, electrical engineering or a related field
• A record of research in photonics, nonlinear optics or optical computing
• Strong numerical modeling skills

• Experience with optical neural networks or reservoir computing
• Semiconductor gain media or saturable absorbers
• Experience bringing research to a prototype
