• Introduction
• At IBM Research, we are the innovation engine of IBM.

Exploring what's next in computing and shaping the technologies the world will rely on tomorrow. From advancing AI and hybrid cloud to pioneering practical quantum computing, we anticipate challenges and unlock new opportunities for clients, partners, and society. Working in Research means joining a team that accelerates discovery at the intersection of high-performance computing, AI, quantum, and cloud. You'll collaborate with leading scientists, engineers, and visionaries to push boundaries and turn ideas into reality. With a culture built on curiosity, creativity, and collaboration, IBM Research offers the opportunity to grow your career while contributing to breakthroughs that transform industries and change the world.

• Your role and responsibilities
• This role involves measuring, simulating, and interpreting the performance of research quantum processors and associated hardware components.

Responsibilities might include conducting experimental characterizations such as spectroscopy and time- domain measurements, e.g., coherence time assessments, analyzing data to understand device behavior, and developing simulation-based models to correlate experimental results with theoretical predictions. Depending on project needs and individual interests, the position may include deeper investigations into topics such as coherence performance as a function of qubit frequency, coupler dynamics and multi-qubit interaction optimization, and model-to-hardware correlation using open-source quantum simulation frameworks such as QuTiP and scqubits.

• Required technical and professional expertise
• Bachelors degree in Physics or related fields.
• Experience with RF and microwave electronics, including spectrum analyzers, digitizers, sources and pulse generators.
• Coding experience in python.
• Preferred technical and professional experience
• Research background in the field of in solid-state qubit platforms.
• Fluency in typical python packages such as QuTiP or scqubits.
• Commercial simulation software such as
