Date: Sep 30, 2025 Location: Company: The Advanced Quantum Technologies Group focuses on accelerating quantum computing and sensing with ion and solid-state systems. Core areas of the Group include fundamental quantum science guiding next generation advances, quantum devices (ion computing testbeds, precision clocks, magnetometers, and other quantum sensors), and quantum systems such as magnetic assisted navigation and quantum microscopes for supply chain security. Job Description
Opportunities exist for student interns to either support existing research efforts or pursue related independent research projects that leverage the unique expertise and resources available in the group. Current openings include projects such as quantum sensors (e.g., nitrogen vacancy and YIG magnetometers, strontium-ion optical clocks), application-driven sensor development (superconducting electronics imaging), quantum computing, and materials for quantum such as diamond engineering. Most successful applicants are enrolled in a science or engineering college degree program and show good academic performance in relevant courses. Past hands-on experience working in a related field (physics, optics, electrical engineering, computer science, or material science) is welcomed. Applicants should be able to work collaboratively with others, to pursue independent research goals and to communicate well. To help us match your skills to the right project, please submit a cover letter describing your professional interests and experience, and a resume highlighting relevant coursework and specific skills which could include programming (e.g., Python, C, HDL), use of technical software (e.g., MATLAB, Cadence, finite-element analysis software), data analysis, hardware development, experience with lab equipment (e.g.,oscilloscopes, cryogenic apparatus) and computer automation, and/or experience with cleanroom microfabrication processes and material growth. Summer Research Program Intern
The Summer Research Program offers students the chance to apply their academic knowledge to real-world national security challenges while working alongside leading scientists and engineers. As an SRP intern, you'll engage in hands-on research, receive dedicated mentorship, and take part in professional development opportunities including workshops, tech talks, and networking events-all while building connections within a vibrant community of peers.
