Job description

The Amazon Web Services Center for Quantum Computing (CQC) in Pasadena, CA, is looking to hire an Applied Scientist. You will join a multi-disciplinary team of experimental and theoretical physicists, materials scientists, and hardware and software engineers working at the forefront of quantum computing. You should have a solid foundation in experimental physics and deep and broad knowledge of experimental measurement techniques.

Candidates should have a track record of original scientific contributions, and those with deep knowledge and experience in low temperature condensed matter physics (superconductivity, Josephson junctions, phononics, TLS physics etc.) will be preferred. We are looking for candidates with strong engineering principles, resourcefulness and a bias for action, superior problem solving, and excellent communication skills. Working effectively within a team environment is essential

You will be expected to work on new ideas and stay abreast of the field of experimental quantum computation.
Key job responsibilities
In this role, you will be part of the Physical Metrology and Exploration (PME) subgroup within the Device team. You will work with the basic building blocks of quantum processors, ranging from superconducting films and resonators to junctions and qubits. There are two core missions for the PME team

The first is to support the CQC's central activities through the development of devices, both existing and novel, that fall within this complexity range. This involves understanding their physical principles, identifying performance limitations, and collaboratively enhancing their capabilities. In many cases though, existing tools and measurement protocols fall short in delivering the depth of insights required for this first mission.

Hence the second core mission of the team centers on physical metrology development. This involves continuously refining existing methodologies and simultaneously devising entirely new ones by identifying specific physical phenomena and exploiting them for measurement applications. You will constantly learn, innovate, carry out agile and yet scientifically rigorous research, and disseminate findings to the rest of the organization.

You will be responsible for building experiments that encompass the integrated stack: design, fabrication, cryogenics, signal chain, and control stack software. Based on your research, you will provide recommendations that improve our next-generation quantum processors.

About Amazon

Sourced by ZipRecruiter

Amazon.com, Inc., commonly known as Amazon, is an American multinational technology company. It was founded by Jeff Bezos in 1994 and initially started as an online marketplace for books. Since then, Amazon has expanded its operations and become one of the largest e-commerce companies in the world. Amazon's primary business is its online retail platform, where customers can purchase a vast array of products, including electronics, clothing, books, home goods, and much more. The company offers a convenient and user-friendly shopping experience, with features such as fast shipping, customer reviews, and personalized recommendations. In addition to its e-commerce platform, Amazon has diversified its business into various other areas. One of its notable ventures is Amazon Web Services (AWS), a comprehensive cloud computing platform that provides services such as storage, compute power, and database management to individuals and businesses. AWS has become a leader in the cloud computing industry, powering many websites and applications worldwide. Amazon has also developed its own consumer electronics, including the popular Amazon Kindle e-reader, Fire tablets, Fire TV streaming devices, and the Alexa-powered Echo smart speakers. The Alexa voice assistant, integrated into these devices, allows users to interact with their devices using voice commands, perform tasks, and access information. Furthermore, Amazon has expanded into media and entertainment. It operates Prime Video, a streaming service that offers a wide range of movies, TV shows, and original content. Amazon Music provides a platform for streaming and purchasing digital music, while Audible offers audiobooks and other audio content. The company's commitment to customer satisfaction and convenience is demonstrated by its membership program, Amazon Prime. Prime members receive various benefits, including free two-day shipping, access to streaming services, exclusive deals, and more.
