Full Job Description
## Description At Atom Computing, we build quantum computers using arrays of optically trapped neutral atoms that will empower customers to achieve unprecedented computational breakthroughs. Join a world-class team of scientists, engineers, and business professionals to advance the state-of-the-art in quantum computing. We are looking for Quantum Engineers to work on all aspects of neutral atom quantum computing. As a Quantum Engineer at Atom Computing, you will join a team of talented scientists and engineers who are working to translate fundamental atomic physics to a scalable, fault-tolerant quantum computer. We welcome applicants from a diverse set of backgrounds, but are specifically interested in candidates with experience in the following fields: Trapping and manipulation of cold atoms; Coherent control of quantum systems (for example: neutral atoms, trapped ions, NV- centers, nuclear magnetic resonance, superconducting qubits); Quantum characterization, verification, and validation (QCVV) techniques. ## Responsibilities Design and construct the scientific hardware and control interfaces (both hardware and software) that are the essential backbone of the quantum computing platform. Generate intellectual property related to the design and operation of neutral-atom-based quantum computers. Requires extensive knowledge of the state-of-the-art techniques used in atomic physics and quantum computing research, and a deep understanding of the fundamental interactions between light and matter. Distill and communicate findings internally, and as appropriate, in external publications and presentations. Capable of lifting and moving objects that weigh up to 25 pounds. ## Experience & Education PhD in Physics, Chemistry, Engineering, or a related field. ## Qualifications Ability to effectively communicate and collaborate with a diverse team of experimental physicists, hardware, and software engineers. Definite pluses: Familiarity with Python and Git software version cont
