Full time

The Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) is searching for talented and motivated postdoctoral researchers to join the Quantum Cavity Optomechanics (QCOM) group under the supervision of Prof. Bradley Hauer. The position is focused on the development of micro/mm-wave superconducting optomechanical devices and their associated measurement infrastructure for the advancement of quantum technologies and fundamental research.

We are accepting applications for a postdoctoral position to be part of a collaborative research project between the Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) at the University of À¶Ý®ÊÓÆµ and the Quantum and Nanotechnologies Research Centre at the National Research Council Canada (NRC).

Are you a highly-motivated early-career researcher with a passion for discovering novel disruptive applications for quantum computers? Are you interested in interdisciplinary research where the rigour of mathematics and computer science meets the wonders of quantum computation? If so, we invite you to join our team as a Postdoctoral researcher to explore the potential of quantum computational advantage using fault-tolerant quantum algorithms.

The successful candidate will develop a new program in the growth of layered magnetic topological compounds and study their transport properties in the atomically thin limit. Job responsibilities involve setting up new infrastructure for the synthesis of high-quality single crystals, assembly and fabrication of 2D heterostructures in inert atmosphere, and carrying out novel electronic and spintronic experiments on devices at low temperature.
