About the role
D-Wave is seeking a talented and self-motivated Senior Quantum Engineer to join our gate-model Quantum Engineering team. In this role, you will lead and deliver on the design, implementation, and experimental validation of novel gate and quantum operations for our dual-rail cavity qubit architecture. You will have hands-on responsibility in the development, implementation, and optimization of gate and operation schemes that deliver high-fidelity performance that advance the development of large-scale error corrected quantum systems.
This position sits at the intersection of experiment, design, and theory and this role may span from component-level characterization through large-scale system-level calibration, testing, and benchmarking. You will work closely with hardware, control, and error-correction teams that translate new concepts into experimentally demonstrated capabilities.
What you'll do

• Lead research on quantum control and calibration techniques for dual-rail cavity qubits that support our mission to build error-corrected quantum systems

• Driving pathfinding research to prototype, implement, and experimentally validate of new quantum operations for next-generation quantum processors

• Develop experiments and novel techniques to calibrate and benchmark single-, two-qubit gates, measurement, reset, and more

• Perform systematic studies to reveal limiting error mechanisms and identify solutions to improve and mitigate these limitations

About You

• PhD with post-doctoral experience or equivalent work experience; or MS with 3+ years of work experience in physics, applied physics, electrical engineering or related field with focus on quantum computing, quantum information, or quantum error correction

• Established track record of experimental scientific contributions

• Strong background in quantum control, quantum measurement, or quantum device physics

• Deep experience designing workflows to execute experiments, analyze data, and iterate on protocols based on results

• Proficiency in scientific programming for experiment control and data analysis (Python, Rust, Julia, MATLAB, C, C++ or similar)

• Strong teamwork and communication skills especially with working in interdisciplinary teams with professionals from other fields of physics and engineering
