  • Qubit layout and verification experience
  • Python coding skills
Perks:
  • Bonus
  • Equity
  • Benefits

Job Details

Minimum qualifications:

  • PhD degree in Physics, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Chemistry, a related field, or equivalent practical experience
  • Experience in electromagnetic modeling or electromagnetism theory.
  • Experience with superconducting qubits.

Preferred qualifications:

  • Experience in computational electromagnetics.
  • Experience in designing microwave components and packaging.
  • Experience with condensed matter physics.
  • Experience with qubit layout and verification with the knowledge of quantum gates.
  • Experience in collaborating with experimentalists on various projects.
  • Knowledge of coding with Python.

About the job

As an organization, Google maintains a portfolio of research projects driven by fundamental research, new product innovation, product contribution and infrastructure goals, while providing individuals and teams the freedom to emphasize specific types of work. As a Research Scientist, you'll setup large-scale tests and deploy promising ideas quickly and broadly, managing deadlines and deliverables while applying the latest theories to develop new and improved products, processes, or technologies. From creating experiments and prototyping implementations to designing new architectures, our research scientists work on real-world problems that span the breadth of computer science, such as machine (and deep) learning, data mining, natural language processing, hardware and software performance analysis, improving compilers for mobile platforms, as well as core search and much more.

As a Research Scientist, you'll also actively contribute to the wider research community by sharing and publishing your findings, with ideas inspired by internal projects as well as from collaborations with research programs at partner universities and technical institutes all over the world.

In this role, you will be focused on advancing the capabilities of quantum computing and enabling meaningful applications.The full potential of quantum computing will be unlocked with a large-scale computer capable of complex, error-corrected computations. Google Quantum AI's mission is to build this computer and unlock solutions to classically intractable problems. Our roadmap is focused on advancing the capabilities of quantum computing and enabling meaningful applications.

The US base salary range for this full-time position is $166,000-$244,000 + bonus + equity + benefits. Our salary ranges are determined by role, level, and location. Within the range, individual pay is determined by work location and additional factors, including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training. Your recruiter can share more about the specific salary range for your preferred location during the hiring process.
