The reversible coherent operations used for levitation ideally produce no noise, offering the potential for quantum information mapping between interacting systems.

Key responsibilities include:

• Microfabrication (e.g., magnetic particles, composite graphite, silicon pockets, and superconductors).
• Mechanical design and fabrication of precision components.
• Learning to operate a cryostat/dilution refrigerator.
• Studying the dynamics of the levitated objects and performing data analysis.

Job Requirements:

• Bachelor's or master's degree in electrical engineering, physics, applied physics, mechanical engineering, precise Instrumentation, or other relevant fields.
