IQT Group at Sussex University is Hiring

Posted on
Want to help construct a quantum computer demonstrator device, operate a small-scale quantum computer, implement quantum simulations towards quantum supremacy or develop portable quantum sensors? The Sussex Ion Quantum Technology group is expanding their team. We are hiring four PhD students, three Research Fellows, and one electrical engineer. We are looking for outstanding individuals who can think outside the box and are ready to take on a challenge.

We are hiring three Research Fellows in Quantum Device Engineering with specialisation in:

  • Quantum Logic Implementation (detailed information can be found here)
  • Quantum Computing Operations (detailed information can be found here)
  • Manufacturing Quantum Microchips (detailed information can be found here)

Successful applicants should have a PhD in physics, engineering or a related discipline.

We also have a position as Electrical Engineer in Quantum Device Engineering (detailed information can be found here).

The successful applicant should have a degree in electrical engineering or a related discipline.

In addition we are hiring four PhD students with specialisation in:

  • Developing a trapped-ion quantum computer demonstrator device (detailed information can be found here)
  • Quantum algorithms on a trapped-ion quantum co-processor (detailed information can be found here)
  • Advanced microchips for quantum technology devices (detailed information can be found here)
  • Developing a portable quantum sensor (detailed information can be found here)

Successful applicants need to have a degree in physics, engineering or a related discipline.
