Job description

The Senior Research Scientist role focuses on designing and simulating superconductor digital logic circuits for qubit control and readout within the Google Quantum AI team. This position requires collaboration with qubit designers and fabrication engineers to optimize circuit performance and establish design standards. The work is critical for developing integrated quantum processors and advancing quantum computing capabilities. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in superconducting electronics and a passion for research and development in this field.

Requirements

  • Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Physics, or a related engineering discipline.
  • Experience in superconductor logic families such as RSFQ, ERSFQ, RQL, HFQ, and AQFP.
  • Experience performing tape-out of a superconducting IC chip.
  • One or more published research papers or presentations at relevant scientific conferences.

Responsibilities

  • Design and simulate superconductor digital logic circuits for generating waveforms tailored to qubit control and readout.
  • Develop superconductor digital logic systems enabling multiplexed qubit control and readout.
  • Address issues in the integration of superconductor digital electronics such as multi-layer cell design and signal integrity.
  • Collaborate with teams focused on design, fabrication, and measurement to validate fully integrated quantum processors.
  • Publish research papers and present at leading scientific conferences to advance and enhance publicity.

Benefits

  • Employees at Google are often offered benefits like comprehensive health insurance, 401(k) matching, and flexible work arrangements, among other benefits.
