Beschreibung

Your Job:


  • Develop techniques to simulate and control the dynamics of increasingly more complex quantum systems
  • Design and optimize implementations on atomic or superconducting processors from basic control components, to small circuits, to variational quantum algorithms
  • Cooperate with experimental partners which build quantum processors
  • Model major sources of experimental error for better control and error mitigation techniques

Your Profile:


  • Background and strong interest in developing theoretical models and methods as well as in implementing numerical optimization techniques
  • Interest in working closely with experimentalists
  • Detailed knowledge of quantum physics and experience with quantum technology
  • Strong mathematical education, in particular in relation to linear algebra
  • Strong programming experience
  • Ability to effectively communicate in written and spoken English
  • Ability to work autonomously and in close interaction within a team
  • Most importantly: enthusiasm to explore uncharted territory, develop, and follow your own ideas

Our Offer:

We work on the very latest issues that impact our society and are offering you the chance to actively help in shaping the change We offer ideal conditions for you to complete your doctoral degree:

  • Opportunity to conduct research at the interface of theory and experiment in a world-leading group in quantum control
  • Work in a highly motivated research group as part of an international and interdisciplinary working environment with access to outstanding computing facilities and connections to the best research institutions around the world
  • Continuous scientific mentoring by your scientific advisor as well as feedback and wideranging expertise from the whole group in multiple facets of quantum technology and optimization
  • Opportunity of participating in (international) conferences and project meetings
  • Participation in overarching seminars including certificate
  • The skills that you will acquire during your Ph.
D. are in high demand both in academia and in high-tech companies: at present, there is significant government and private investment in the field of quantum technologies

  • A large research campus with green spaces, offering the best possible means for networking with colleagues and pursuing sports alongside work
  • Targeted services for international employees, e.g. through our International Advisory Service
