<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Research Associate in Quantum Technologies (2 positions)</b><br>
Grade 7 – £36,924 to £46,485 plus benefits<br>
<br>
Note: We especially encourage applications from women and other underrepresented groups in Physics and Engineering.<br>
<br>
These are 2-year postdoctoral positions (with possibility of 1-year extension) in the <a href="https://bbqlab.org/">Beyond Binary Quantum Information</a> research group led by Prof Mehul Malik at the Institute of Photonics and Quantum Sciences (IPAQS) at Heriot-Watt
University in Edinburgh, Scotland. These positions are associated with two new UK National Quantum Technologies Hubs: Quantum Sensing and Imaging (QuSIT) and Integrated Quantum Networks (IQN). As such, one position will focus on the area of quantum sensing
and imaging, and the other on quantum communications. Please specify which role you are interested in at the time of application.<br>
<br>
In these roles, you will be involved in cutting-edge research projects focusing on the study of high-dimensional quantum systems and their application in enhancing quantum technologies. Your research will aim at gaining exquisite control over the spatial and
temporal structure of light, with the ultimate goal of pushing the information, noise and sensitivity limits of next-generation quantum technologies for communication, sensing and imaging. You will play an integral role in ongoing BBQLab projects as well as
in the planning and delivery of upcoming research projects.<o:p></o:p></p>
