Quantum Theorist: Photonic Hardware Architect

Metric is seeking a theory-focused researcher to influence hardware roadmaps for quantum photonics. You will model photonic architectures, stress-test interaction schemes, and ensure models align with experimental data, guiding where lab effort and funding should go.

The role blends theory with experimental validation, requiring a PhD in physics or equivalent research experience and a strong interest in bridging computation with real-world hardware constraints.
