Job Description
As Senior Quantum Engineer, Readout, you will optimize superconducting qubit readout and reset on Rigetti’s quantum processors and fault-tolerant prototypes. You will lead a range of experimental efforts to characterize and improve measurement protocols, signal chains, amplifiers, and device layouts. In collaboration with an interdisciplinary group of engineers in theory, hardware, and chip design, you will advance the speed and fidelity of readout and reset in Rigetti Computing’s quantum computing systems to fulfill its ambitious roadmap toward fault tolerance.Lead superconducting qubit measurements to characterize dispersive readout of our quantum circuits Develop novel measurement techniques and pulse optimizations for readout speed or fidelity, and implement them in Rigetti’s Python-based calibration and characterization software Collaborate with theory and simulation teams to build or validate models that describe readou...
