Senior Scientist-SNSPDs - Toronto - Xanadu
Description
About Xanadu
At Xanadu, we are learners, innovators, researchers, collaborators, and problem solvers. We are creating something that has never been built before. What we are doing is extremely hard, the classic moon shot. Few people in their life will be able to be a part of something like this, where if we are successful, the technologies we develop will solve some of the world's most challenging problems, and literally change the world. And that is something to be excited about
Your Role And Responsibilities
In this role, you will contribute your expertise in optics and photonics, cryogenics, to advance the performance of our Superconducting Nanowire Single Photon Detectors (SNSPDs). As a member of the Low Temperature Devices Team, your primary responsibility will be the development of record breaking single photon detectors with ultrahigh system detection efficiency, short reset time and compact deployment. With your deep technical expertise and experience in SNSPD system development, you will play a critical role in designing and enhancing the performance and scalability of our SNSPD platform. This role requires significant experience with SNSPDs (both in design and characterization), cryogenic systems, and photonic hardware, as well as the ability to work effectively across disciplines in a fast-paced environment.
Responsibilities
Required Qualifications And Experience
Preferred Knowledge And Experience
This is for a new position. Your base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and internal benchmarks. The base salary range is 140, ,000 CAD. You will also be eligible for equity and benefits.
