We are seeking a Senior Advanced Photonics Scientist at our Broomfield, CO or Albuquerque, New Mexico Location. The role involves participating in a team of physicists and optical engineers supporting the development of commercial and research systems for quantum computing. The candidate will design and develop integrated photonic components and systems in novel ways to deliver and manipulate light across the spectrum. Collaboration across disciplines (architecture, physics, photonics, fabrication, mechanical engineering) is essential to define systems and requirements to support quantum computing and demonstrate systems meeting performance requirements. Responsibilities also include gathering technical requirements, turning them into action plans, and ensuring the components and systems meet the requirements. The candidate will design novel integrated photonic components to meet challenging specifications, layout test PICs, and work closely with fabrication and test teams to validate photonic component performance. Additionally, the candidate will lead and work with the PIC development team and external vendors to ensure timely development and delivery of key demonstrators.
