Junior Device Fabrication Engineer for Superconducting Circuits in Zürich

Studierende finden an der ETH Zürich ein Umfeld, das eigenständiges Denken fördert, Forschende ein Klima, das zu Spitzenleistungen inspiriert.

Jobbeschreibung

100%, Zurich, fixed-term

ETH Zurich together with the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) have recently founded  to jointly develop large-scale quantum computers and to foster collaboration between academic and industrial partners in the emerging ecosystem of quantum technologies. A growing team led by Andreas Wallraff and Christopher Eichler from the , at the  of ETH Zurich is setting up a new superconducting circuits lab on the in the canton of Aargau. At this site we will work to scale up the systems developed at the Quantum Device Lab to 100 qubits and beyond, which crucially relies on systematic optimization of the fabrication processes. We fabricate our solid-state devices, using thin film deposition, etching, and lithography techniques at the micro- and nanoscale, in located at ETH Hönggerberg, at and at . To strengthen our research and development activities we are looking for a highly motivated junior fabrication engineer.

Job description

As a successful candidate, you will become part of our young team setting up large-scale quantum computing systems in a brand-new lab. Like the rest of the team, you will be working closely with scientists from the Quantum Device Lab – a well-established research group – and be able to both benefit from the expertise developed there and to contribute to its progress. You will participate in the development of scalable quantum hardware based on multi-chip modules and on advancing the quality of materials, processes, and interfaces. Your tasks will include the execution of new and existing fabrication processes, as well as the technical and scientific documentation of your work. You will also take responsibility and contribute to the purchasing and maintenance of research equipment and characterization tools, as well as the support of your collaborators in operating them.

Your profile

You ideally should have gained experience in an academic and/or industrial setting in a number of the following areas:

  • working experience in cleanroom facilities
  • thin film deposition
  • lithography
  • etching
  • surface characterization
  • imaging
  • packaging
  • process development
  • machining
  • UHV technology
  • material science
  • cryogenic systems

You can demonstrate experience in systematically documenting their work and are skilled in communicating their findings to their collaborators.

This position offers you at the early career stage a path to embed yourself into the rapidly emerging field of quantum technology and provides exposure to a wide range of challenges and learning opportunities in a fast-moving research setting.

You must possess excellent English communication skills; knowledge of German is desirable, but not required.
