Postdoctoral Researcher at Niels Bohr Institute, NQCP
The Novo Nordisk Foundation Quantum Computing Programme (NQCP) at the Niels Bohr Institute at Faculty of Science, the University of Copenhagen is looking for a Postdoc Researcher dedicated to semiconductor quantum dots processors, with a specific focus on developing novel techniques for executing simultaneous quantum gates. This position is open from 1 January 2026 or as soon as possible thereafter.
We highly encourage applications from underrepresented groups in the field.
About us
The Novo Nordisk Foundation Quantum Computing Programme is establishing a team to create a cutting-edge quantum programme in the heart of Copenhagen, Denmark. The long-term mission of the programme is to enable the development of fault-tolerant quantum computing hardware and quantum algorithms that solve life-science-relevant chemical and biological problems. Among the four hardware platforms pursued by NQCP, the Spin Qubit Pilot Line Team aims at achieving a quantum advantage exploiting the unique properties of semiconductor quantum dots processors. To reach this ambitious goal, we are building a world-class research group and developing state-of-the-art infrastructure. In this context, the team is seeking a Postdoctoral Researcher with focus on parallel quantum computing with gate-defined quantum dots.
The project
The project will focus on development of novel techniques for high fidelity quantum operations on germanium hole spin qubit based quantum processors. Specifically, the project will focus on developing techniques to perform quantum operations simultaneously on proximal spin qubits, while maintaining fault tolerant fidelity. The project aims to exploit the wealth of opportunity afforded by a spin-orbit rich platform, to develop techniques such as mid-circuit measurement, feedback, spin-shuttling and manipulation to facilitate fault-tolerant operation in hole spin-qubit based quantum computing architectures.
Place of employment and scientific environment
Research will be carried out at NQCP ( at the University of Copenhagen. Our research facilities include modern low-temperature laboratories containing cryofree dilution refrigerators with state-of-art quantum control hardware, as well as nanofabrication facilities.
At NQCP, we offer creative and stimulating working conditions in a dynamic and international research environment. The project takes place in a highly collaborative and multidisciplinary environment with regular interactions with physicists and quantum engineers.
Profile
We are looking for a highly motivated and enthusiastic scientist with the following competencies and experience:
