Quantum Computing Theory And Modeling Researcher

Intel's Technology Development Component Research(TD CR) delivers innovative device technologies and architectures to enable Intel's roadmap. Our job is to invent, to demonstrate, and to develop game-changing and revolutionary technologies to enable Intel's technology leadership.

We're looking for a quantum device research engineer to join our team as we design quantum processors based on silicon quantum dot spin qubits. A successful candidate will develop and improve models of gate-defined quantum dot qubits in silicon and participate in data-driven decision making between competing designs. Models include dot and sensor electrostatics, quantum dot spectra, spin dynamics and exchange, noise and control signals, and quantum gate fidelity estimation. Candidates must have experience understanding and modeling solid state quantum devices and be familiar with the practical limitations of quantum control and measurement.

This position requires efficient communication and daily collaboration with other researchers and engineers to understand design success criteria and validate models with experimental data. Quantitative understanding of the impact of design choices and shaping expectations for experimental results is a key expectation for this role. Design choices include physical layout and dimensions, qubit control approaches, and measurement techniques. This position includes use of internal Intel tools as well as industry standard TCAD and modeling software.

Responsibilities are the following:

• Protect Intel's IP and onboard proven concepts and ideas.
• Model and simulate semiconductor processes and devices to support design efforts for scaled quantum dot qubit arrays.
• Independently propose and follow-through on unique, enabling ideas with potential to accelerate Intel's QC program.
• Model and simulate quantum dot qubits to support test and characterization teams.

This position includes collaboration with external research groups and vendor programs.
