About the role

Key responsibilities & impact
  • Build and maintain a deep, end-to-end understanding of the control requirements of neutral-atom platforms, including atoms in optical tweezers and lattices, across state preparation, gating, and readout.
  • Characterize the control requirements of neutral-atom experiments across analog signal chains and real-time control flow.
  • Define how control scales from a handful of qubits to large systems running quantum error correction, identifying analog, digital, and architectural bottlenecks.
  • Translate insights into product requirements and reference architectures.
  • Work with hardware, firmware, and software teams to shape the design and delivery of a control solution.
  • Validate proposed solutions through modeling, simulation, and engagement with experimental platforms.
  • Benchmark solutions against real neutral-atom control needs.
  • Engage with customers, partners, and the broader neutral-atom community to inform the roadmap.

Requirements

What you’ll need
  • PhD in quantum physics or a closely related field.
  • 3+ years of experimental quantum physics and/or computing.
  • Track record of excellent scientific achievements.
  • Excellent oral and written communication skills in English; excellent presentation skills.
  • Strong organizational and time-management skills; a self-driven individual with a high level of independence and discipline.
  • Hands-on experimental background with neutral-atom systems strongly preferred.
