仕事内容 Role
About 同社
同社 is a deep-tech startup spun out of the University of Tokyo, founded with the mission of achieving the social implementation and commercialization of "optical quantum computers."
While multiple modalities exist in the quantum computing landscape, we focus on the optical quantum approach. We are confident that this method is the most suitable for practical application and widespread adoption due to its inherent scalability and seamless integration with optical communications. Through continuous research and development, we aim to balance energy efficiency with high computing power, overcome the limits of human information processing, and contribute to a sustainable society.
Background
Toward the practical application of optical quantum computers and the dramatic improvement of their computational performance, further enhancing the purity of "squeezed light"—our fundamental resource—is an urgent priority. To achieve breakthroughs in this highly challenging technical hurdle and unlock the ultimate limits of quantum performance, deep and broad academic expertise is essential.
We are seeking a researcher who can autonomously lead R&D activities while maintaining a holistic view of the entire optical system, and who will co-create the foundation of our next-generation hardware.
Key Responsibilities
As a member of the Fundamental Unit, you will lead research focused on achieving high-purity free-space squeezed light and high-precision measurements, utilizing a PPLN waveguide as the light source.
Squeezed light is the fundamental resource and key to realizing the optical quantum computers we are developing. This research will play a core role in dramatically improving the performance of our quantum computing systems.
In this position, you will be expected to go beyond simply executing experiments. We expect you to demonstrate highly original ideas, advanced experimental skills, and strong project management capabilities in quantum optics experiments.
Example of Specific Responsibilities:
- Define requirements for identifying and eliminating physical bottlenecks to improve the purity of squeezed light. Design, construct, and evaluate overall systems and experimental setups for proof-of-principle demonstrations.
- Analyze various noise sources (optical, electrical, and environmental) in homodyne measurement systems, and formulate/execute approaches for achieving ultra-low noise and high-precision measurements.
- Propose novel experimental methods based on the latest academic research and drive proof-of-concept experiments.
- Actively participate in technical discussions to steer the direction of the experimental team, and provide technical guidance and mentoring to junior members.
The Role & Impact
- Creation of Core Technology of quantum computer:
- Shape the ultimate performance of "squeezed light"—the heart of our optical quantum computers—and directly drive system-wide breakthroughs with your own hands.
- High Research Autonomy:
- Tackle unprecedented challenges with significant autonomy, from selecting technical approaches to designing and constructing experimental setups.
- Top-Tier Collaborative Environment:
- As a startup spun out of the University of Tokyo, we provide an environment where you can engage in daily discussions with leading experts in hardware, software, and theory to mutually elevate your expertise.
