Postdoc in Quantum Sensing – DTU Physics
Kgs. Lyngby, Denmark
Job Description

We are delighted to offer a postdoctoral position at the Copenhagen Center for Biomedical Quantum Sensing, where we focus on pioneering research in quantum sensing using squeezed light and color centers in diamond. This position presents an exceptional opportunity for a postdoctoral researcher to contribute to groundbreaking work in the field of quantum technologies, specifically in the application of quantum sensing to biomedical sciences.
As part of this new center, you will join a dynamic team dedicated to advancing the frontiers of quantum sensing. The center aims to harness the unique properties of quantum systems, such as entanglement and the quantum properties of color centers in diamonds, to develop innovative sensing techniques with potential biomedical applications.
Responsibilities and qualifications
Your key responsibilities are to:

• Design and implement experimental protocols for quantum sensing using either squeezed states or color centers in diamond. 
• Develop, operate and maintain an experimental setup for quantum sensing.
• Acquire, analyze and interpret experimental data,
• Prepare manuscripts for publication, and present research findings at conferences and workshops.
• Collaborate with researchers from other institutions to advance the overall project goals.

We are looking for an exceptional physicist with extraordinary talents and outstanding drive. In particular, we are looking for academic excellence and/or demonstrated scientific achievements. We also expect you to have a strong ability to conceive new ideas, construct high-performance experimental setups, take initiative and leadership, and secure progress of the experimental work on a daily basis. Essential is your internal drive to achieve significant and ground-breaking results.
We expect you to:

• be motivated and dedicated to do research of the highest standards, 
• enjoy working in a team, be excited about sharing your expertise with other group members, and be open to new ideas,
• share our values of scientific curiosity and creativity,
• be excited about large challenges and enjoy solving them,
• have an extraordinary drive towards achieving groundbreaking results,
• love physics discussions and participating in thoughtful conversations,
• make things work!

Further requirements and qualifications
We require demonstrated expertise in experimental quantum optics and a Ph.D. in physics, quantum information science, or a related field. Expertise in some of the following areas is expected:

• Expertise in quantum information processing, quantum optics, or related fields.
• Strong experimental skills and solid theoretical understanding of quantum information.
• Experience in continuous variable quantum information processing and entanglement generation is preferred but not required.
• Experience in programming and data analysis.
• Ability to work independently and as part of a team.
• Excellent communication skills in English.

We offer a stimulating research environment with excellent opportunities for professional growth and development. The successful candidate will have access to state-of-the-art experimental facilities and resources to help them achieve their research goals.
