About this position
nanoGUNE is offering a postdoctoral research position in its Quantum Hardware Group in Donostia-San Sebastián, Spain, focused on cryogenic electronics for quantum computing. The project sits within a collaborative effort involving academic and industrial partners to develop low-noise, low-power cryogenic amplifiers for solid-state qubits.
The selected researcher will work on the development and validation of SiGe microwave low-noise amplifiers (LNAs) for operation at room temperature and deep cryogenic temperatures. The work combines device characterisation, schematic design, simulation, and benchmarking of amplifiers alongside silicon spin qubit devices. It also includes contributing to the commissioning and optimisation of cryogenic infrastructure for quantum device testing.
The position is embedded in a multidisciplinary environment bringing together IC designers, quantum scientists, and engineers. The successful candidate will also develop software tools for measurement automation and data analysis, and carry out detailed experimental analysis to support internal decisions and technical manuscripts.
The group is led by Fernando Gonzalez Zalba at nanoGUNE, a research centre known for nanoscience research and recognised as a María de Maeztu Unit of Excellence. The advertised work is centered on quantum hardware, cryogenic measurement, and the interface between amplifier technology and qubit-readout environments.
