As an organization, Google maintains a portfolio of research projects driven by fundamental research, new product innovation, product contribution and infrastructure goals, while providing individuals and teams the freedom to emphasize specific types of work. As a Research Scientist, you'll setup large-scale tests and deploy promising ideas quickly and broadly, managing deadlines and deliverables while applying the latest theories to develop new and improved products, processes, or technologies. From creating experiments and prototyping implementations to designing new architectures, our research scientists work on real-world problems that span the breadth of computer science, such as machine (and deep) learning, data mining, natural language processing, hardware and software performance analysis, improving compilers for mobile platforms, as well as core search and much more.

The Quantum team leverages superconducting circuits which are cooled near absolute zero as quantum bits (qubits), which are the building blocks of quantum computing hardware. The performance of our hardware is fundamentally limited by the coherence times of the qubits.

As a Research Scientist, you'll be sharing and publishing your findings. You will be responsible for designing experiments to characterize and improve coherence. You will collaborate with the design, fabrication and measurement teams to integrate new technologies that improve key figures of merit for qubit coherence.

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.
