At the Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen, where the formulation of Quantum Mechanics was born 100 years ago, we aim to establish an international quantum computing programme, funded by the Novo Nordisk Foundation, that will drive research and innovations at multiple levels - from developing scalable quantum processor technologies to solutions for the quantum-classical control and readout interface, and all the way to quantum algorithms and applications. The long-term mission of the programme is todevelop fault-tolerant quantum computing hardware and quantum algorithms that solve life-science-relevant chemical and biological problems.

NQCP is looking for a junior engineer to support our efforts on electrical characterization of our various novel materials and components. You will be working with multiple tools, preparing, executing and analyzing measurements from room temperature all the way to milli kelvin. Measurements are done using characterization protocols to reliably and precisely extract relevant metrics. This will be done in close collaboration with the materials growth, fabrication, and Theory & Simulation teams as well as various international partners from industry and academia.
