We have an opening for a post-doctoral research fellow specialising in the design and fabrication of superconducting devices for the detection of levitating superconducting sensors. The applicant will lead the development of new superconducting devices and of its application to quantum measurements. The successful candidate will also work closely with the PI to develop future experimental goals and shape the general research direction of the group. There will be ample opportunities to explore personal ideas and participate in grant-writing processes. We aim to provide a challenging and supportive environment to nurture research leadership skills and readiness for a high-level career in academia or in the quantum industry.

Required skills:

  • Electron-beam lithography
  • Metal deposition
  • Dry and wet etching

Preferred skills:

  • Low-noise microwave measurements
  • Operation of cryogenic equipment
  • Mechanical assembly for RF devices
  • Josephson junction fabrication
  • Strong foundations in quantum mechanics
  • Effective communication
  • Leadership experience

The open position is extremely well funded by Singapore’s ambitious Quantum Engineering Programme and Competitive Research Programme. The PI hold the Presidential Young Professorship and their laboratories are funded under the National Research Fellowship, which offers long-term funding prospects.
