  • Assimilate and integrate technical inputs from performers and analyze technical deliverables and reports.
  • Conduct technical writing, development/refinement of briefing materials, and other program documentation using MS Word and MS PowerPoint.
  • Conduct independent review and summary of related technical literature and emerging technologies, and participate in conferences and workshops related to program technical areas.
  • Develop and document testing methodology and protocols, ensuring they align with program technology components.
  • Assess performer results against program metrics.
  • Coordinate, align, and schedule technology development tasks and perform continuous analysis of technical progress in comparison to planned cost and schedule.
  • Perform technical and programmatic risk analysis/review and tracking.

Qualified candidate will have experience in one or more of these research areas:
  • Control Systems and Sensing to support the analysis of existing capabilities and inform decision making.
    • Advanced Control Techniques for precision analog control systems for mixed-signal assemblies, boards, FPGAs and ASICs and mixed analog/digital circuits for research, design, and test.
  • Future Computing and High-Performance Computing (HPC) Solutions
    • Expertise in superconducting logic such as SFQ, RSFQ, eRSFQ, RQL etc. for design, analysis and testing of logic circuits, boards, and/or ASICs, and experience in superconducting circuity technology.
  • Quantum Computing for qubit approaches that will change as technology advances such as:
    • Qubit development utilizing superconducting circuits for fabrication and RF test/measurement.
    • Qubit development utilizing silicon devices.
    • Qubit development utilizing trapped ions and micro-fabrication techniques.
    • Quantum characterization, verification, and validation.
    • Fault Tolerant Quantum Computing/Quantum Error Correction
    • Microwave/RF Engineering related to circuit design and modeling, waveform synthesis synchronization and transmission, and high frequency acquisition and digitization.
    • Quantum Information Science technologies experience.

Experience, education, and other requirements include:
  • U.S. citizenship.
  • Current U.S. government security clearance or ability to obtain a security clearance.
  • PhD in Physics or related field preferred; qualified candidates with a master's degree in a related discipline will be considered.
  • A minimum of 5 years of related professional experience; experience in related research activity will be considered.
  • At least one publication in a related subject.
  • Experience in quantum information research (experiment or theory), particularly in quantum computing research preferred.
  • Postdoc experience or equivalent, preferred.
  • Expertise in trapped-ion and/or superconducting experiments, preferred.
  • Expertise in quantum information theory, preferred.
  • Demonstrated ability to communicate effectively and efficiently within a dynamic, interdisciplinary environment.
