SQC was formed in May 2017 by the Commonwealth of Australia, UNSW Sydney, Telstra Corporation, the Commonwealth Bank of Australia and the State of New South Wales. It was funded with A$83 million to acquire a portfolio of world-leading silicon quantum computing intellectual property (IP) developed over the previous twenty years at the Centre of Excellence for Quantum Computation and Communications Technology (CQC2T) and to commence a technical development program to build a silicon quantum computer.

Since May 2017, SQC has assembled a world-class team of quantum scientists, engineers and technicians, specialist equipment and globally leading laboratories at UNSW Sydney to further its program. In addition to its core processor technology, SQC is developing the ‘full stack’ to ensure it can deliver a useful and manufacturable quantum device.

**Specific responsibilities for this role include**:

- Develop and perform low noise, high-frequency measurements of spin qubit devices in silicon.
- Work alongside, and with, processing engineers to deliver high quality qubit processors
- Operate a cryogenic dilution refrigerator.

- Liaise with Professor Michelle Simmons and her leadership team to ensure efficient delivery of quantum processors based on atom qubits in silicon technology.
- Assist with the maintenance of laboratory computer hardware and software infrastructure.
- Work with a multidisciplinary team of quantum physicists, engineers, technicians, postdoctoral researchers, and PhD students to establish optimal setups for performing high-fidelity measurements.
- Develop and optimise the configuration of dilution refrigerators for low-noise, cryogenic operation with RF devices and GHz lines.
- Ensure processing of high-quality devices with RF and GHz control and addressability.
- Responsibility for the ensuring optimal devices are measured
- Where appropriate, take leadership of research projects
- Make a significant contribution to the field of quantum information.
- Align with and actively demonstrate the UNSW Values in Action: Our Behaviours and the UNSW Code of Conduct.
