About the job

The full potential of quantum computing will be unlocked with a large-scale computer capable of complex, error-corrected computations. Google Quantum AI's mission is to build this computer and unlock solutions to classically intractable problems. Our roadmap is focused on advancing the capabilities of quantum computing and enabling meaningful applications.

In this role you will develop and integrate foundry microfabrication processes needed to support our quantum processor roadmap. You will collaborate closely with fabrication, design, and architecture teams to identify new capabilities, evaluate potential options, and drive development from concept through integration. You will also support existing foundry processes, including maintaining documentation, performing analysis of inline fabrication and e-test data, and driving yield improvement.

Google Research is building the next generation of intelligent systems for all Google products. To achieve this, we’re working on projects that utilize the latest computer science techniques developed by skilled software engineers and research scientists. Google Research teams collaborate closely with other teams across Google, maintaining the flexibility and versatility required to adapt new projects and foci that meet the demands of the world's fast-paced business needs.
