Job Description:

We are inviting applications to join our experienced team to research and develop quantum optical systems for the quantum internet. The successful applicant will develop and characterise deployable systems to generate single and entangled photons, and interface them with fibre‑optic networks for secure sharing of quantum information. The role will require a fundamental understanding of quantum light sources and light-matter interaction, and will involve specification and integration of the optical, electrical and mechanical components required to create novel experimental demonstrator systems.

Job Responsibility:

  • Characterization of photon sources
  • Development of experimental quantum optical applications
  • Specification of optical, electrical and mechanical components and system assembly
  • Development of software for experimental controls
  • Build and maintain high-performance experimental setups
  • Engagement with academic and industrial partners, and dissemination through scientific publications
  • Working as part of a team, and with partners in academia and industry

Requirements:

  • PhD in Physics, Electrical Engineering, or a related discipline
  • Proven hands-on experience in quantum optics or related field
  • Track record of impactful research
  • Experience in assembly and control of complex experimental systems
  • Good knowledge of computer control programming environments, e.g., LabVIEW/Python
  • Capability of both creative, independent work and working within an interactive team
  • Desire to acquire new skills and work with new technologies

Nice to have:

  • Knowledge of electronic circuit design, assembly and testing
  • Experience with cryogenic or high vacuum technology
  • Experience with imaging, microscopy, spectroscopy, and fibre optic systems
