Scientist or Senior Scientist

Job Number: P22F10
Honda Research Institute USA Inc. (HRI-US) is seeking a scientist or senior scientist to develop spin, molecular or hybrid qubit technologies. Duties will include characterization and understanding of magnetic, electronic, optical properties, of qubits, their initiation/readout and broad research activities aiming at applications in quantum sensing and communication. The successful applicant will lead fundamental studies of magnetic and optical properties of NV-diamond based platforms, molecular qubits as well as developing a prototype of distributed quantum sensing and communication. This position requires independent research skills, solid knowledge and experience in quantum physics and photonics. Experience of developing neural network algorithms is welcome. The applicant will have the opportunity to grow into the role of leading a direction in developing quantum distributed systems.
