Postdoctoral Positions in Experimental Quantum-Dot Spin Qubits and Theoretical Quantum Computing

National Taiwan University is inviting applications for postdoctoral positions in the following areas of quantum computing: (1) Experimental quantum computing for silicon-based quantum-dot spin qubits, (2) Quantum Computing Theory and Modeling, and (3) Quantum computer programing, algorithms and applications. Candidates will work on newly funded quantum computing projects that have both experimental and theoretical components. More descriptions about the postdoctoral positions can be found below. The postdoctoral positions are immediately available, and appointment will be initially for a year with possible extension for additional years based on performance. The applications are now open until positions are filled.

Postdoctoral Position in Experimental quantum computing for silicon-based quantum-dot spin qubits
Candidates will participate in a newly initiated project focusing on implementing and improving quantum gates in silicon-based quantum-dot electron-spin multi-qubit systems and are expected to work closely with theorists to model device physics and develop novel gate implementations in the spin qubits. Experience with experimental quantum computing, quantum control, microwave electronics and microwave measurements is a big plus.

Postdoctoral Position in Quantum Computing Theory and Modeling
We are looking for postdoctoral fellows with a record of research in quantum computing theory, open quantum systems, numerical modeling, quantum control, and device physics. Candidates are expected to work closely with experimentalists to model device physics and improve quantum gates and measurements in multi-qubit systems, in particular in silicon-based quantum-dot electron-spin qubits. Fruitful collaboration with other members of the quantum computing team is expected. Research experience in quantum computing theory and numerical modeling is a big plus.

Postdoctoral Position in quantum computer programing, algorithms and applications/
This position is responsible for research focused on the development of new and novel approaches and algorithms for many-body simulations for chemistry and materials to be performed on quantum computers. This position will be involved in writing programming codes in Python and execution of simulations on commercial state-of art quantum computers.
