PostDoc

We are seeking expressions of interest from prospective postdoctoral researchers and PhD students interested in working on fundamental problems in classical and quantum Shannon theory at the University of Brescia, Italy, within an ERC-funded research project led by Prof. Marco Dalai.

Research Areas

The project focuses on the mathematical foundations of highly reliable communication, with particular emphasis on classical and quantum information theory.

It encompasses a broad range of interconnected research directions, including, but not limited to:

A two-year post-doctoral position is open at the Interdisciplinary Research Institute of Grenoble (IRIG) of the CEA Grenoble (France) on the theory and modeling of silicon/germanium electron and hole spin qubits. The selected candidate is expected to start no later than April 1st, 2027.

Rinn Quantum, the Research Ireland Centre for Quantum Information Science and Technology, invites applications for at least six two-year postdoctoral fellowships across its research programme. Fellows will join a collaborative national centre.

A 2-year postdoctoral position is open at the Institut de Physique Théorique (IPhT), CEA Saclay, near Paris, starting in early 2027.

The position focuses on bringing a device-independent perspective to quantum computing. The work involves designing and analysing core quantum computing primitives that reduce the need to trust the underlying hardware. The position is funded by the QuantERA project ToDiQT, a consortium that brings together six groups in France, Austria, Belgium and Poland.

General Scope: This project aims to develop a microwave-to-optical quantum interface for the transfer of quantum information between microwave and optical domains. Such an interface could enable long-distance transfer of quantum information and optically mediated entanglement between distant microwave qubits, such as superconducting or spin qubits. It is a promising route to bridge microwave quantum technologies and silicon photonics.

The Quantum Algorithms Division at TII’s Quantum Research Centre (QRC) invites applications for postdoctoral or senior researcher roles in Quantum Error Correction (QEC) theory, within the team led by Lead Scientist Dr. Tobias Haug. We develop theoretical and practical approaches to quantum error correction, in close collaboration with experimental groups at QRC and external partners.

• Location: Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates
• Start date: Flexible (anytime in 2026–early 2027).

The Quantum Hub at University of Southern Denmark is seeking a postdoctoral researcher for a two-year post to conduct research on abstractions for quantum software. As quantum computing advances towards large-scale fault-tolerant devices, robust hardware-independent software abstractions are becoming increasingly important for bridging the gap between quantum algorithms and physical implementations, and for making quantum computing accessible to software developers. We welcome applicants strongly motivated to contribute to this growing field with expertise in one or more of the following areas (See Tags)

THE POSITION
We are looking for highly motivated researchers to join the Quantum and Ultrafast Optoelectronics (QUO) Unit at the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST), located on the beautiful island of Okinawa, Japan.

We currently have two openings for Postdoctoral Scholars. While the primary research areas for the positions are outlined below, we also welcome ambitious researchers from complementary backgrounds who are eager to explore and develop new scientific directions.

Postdoctoral Fellowship Position in Rydberg Optical Tweezer Arrays

The Biedermann Experimental Atomic Physics Group at the University of Oklahoma invites applications for a departmental Postdoctoral Fellowship investigating quantum information science with neutral-atom optical tweezer arrays and Rydberg-mediated entangling interactions.

In the idyllic tropical island of Okinawa, in the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Graduate University, the Quantum Machines Unit seeks to develop macroscopic quantum systems using magnetic levitation. One of the fundamental tenants of quantum mechanics is that everything in nature obeys the laws of quantum mechanics. Does this really hold for macroscopic objects, objects where gravitational forces become significant?
