At D-Wave, we’re helping customers realize the value of quantum computing today and are shaping the quantum-driven industrial and societal advancements of tomorrow. We are looking for a creative, energetic, and self-motivated Experimental Physicist to join our Processor Development (PD) team.

In this challenging and exciting role, you will contribute to the development of superconducting gate-model quantum processors, with a focus on long-term scalability.



You will leverage your expertise in gate model quantum computation as well as D-Wave’s extensive experience in developing large-scale superconducting integrated circuit control, you will work collaboratively with a multidisciplinary team including superconducting circuit designers, fabrication engineers, software developers, physicists, and engineers to push the boundaries of quantum computing. Develop and run experiments, analysis routines, and quantitative models to characterizeparameters and performance ofas-fabricatedsuperconductingquantum processors.

Perform coherencemeasurements(T1, T2, Ramsey, echo, noise spectroscopy) toidentifydecoherence mechanisms anduse those datatoguideimprovements in device design, control,fabrication,and cryogenicinfrastructure. Diagnose scaling limitationsin control, calibration, readout, and noiseand developmethods to improve upon or circumvent these limitations. Collaborate with designers on device parameter studies and simulations and help define measurement primitives and requirements for improved processor performance.

Experience with measurement and control of qubits using microwave techniques or other closely related quantum control topics and methods. Skill in independent research and evidence of deep understanding in your area of expertise. Abilitytolearnnew technical topics quickly and effectively.

Strong software development experience for experimental automation, data acquisition, and data analysis,



with willingness to learn recent languages and tools as needed. Excellent communication skills and experience with summarizing technical information for a broad audience. Abilityand willingnessto adapt to shifting priorities in a time-sensitive environment.

Experience with version control and collaborative softwaredevelopmentenvironments. As leaders we motivate & engage our teams to undertake beyond what they originally thought possible, by developing our teams & creating the conditions for people to grow and empower themselves through enabling & coaching.
