FYI-please see below. From: members_cqe-request(a)lists.uchicago.edu <members_cqe-request(a)lists.uchicago.edu> on behalf of quantum(a)uchicago.edu <quantum(a)uchicago.edu> Sent: Monday, December 23, 2019 8:16 AM To: members_cqe(a)lists.uchicago.edu <members_cqe(a)lists.uchicago.edu> Subject: [members_cqe] Internship opportunities for CQE trainees Dear CQE Members, The CQE corporate partners have the following internship opportunities available for the coming year. We have listed these on the CQE Internship Webpage<https://quantum.uchicago.edu/training-and-education/internships-for-chicago…> and will add more as they become available. Please forward these opportunities to your students, trainees, and any appropriate email lists. The current internships include: Quantum Opus<https://voices.uchicago.edu/quantumsite/training-and-education/internships-…> is seeking undergraduate or graduate students interested in working on areas low-loss, high-speed photon detectors, superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors, and custom engineering solutions for nanowire response, mid-infrared photon counting, custom cryogenic systems, and integration with waveguides and photonic chips, which will enable next-generation experiments in quantum optics, optical quantum computation, single-photon communication, low-flux biophotonics, and remote sensing. Interested students should send a resume and cover letter to info(a)quantumopus.com<mailto:info@quantumopus.com> explaining their areas of interest, alignment with Quantum Opus, and their unique expertise. IBM<https://www.ibm.com/blogs/research/2019/10/ibm-quantum-intern/> is seeking undergraduate or graduate students interested in working on a range of projects. Possible experiences range from contributing to the open source Qiskit project, fundamental research into quantum computing, and helping people understand the relevance of quantum computing. In addition to applying through the IBM portal, students at CQE institutions who are interested in an IBM internship should send an email to quantum(a)uchicago.edu<mailto:quantum@uchicago.edu> explaining their interest, and CQE members will help facilitate their application. HRL Laboratories<http://www.hrl.com/careers/internships/quantum>, LLC is seeking motivated undergraduate and graduate students interested in all areas of quantum information technology. Projects include developing and operating tools to simulate qubit device physics and quantum state evolution, designing software to operate and analyze semiconductor qubit devices, conducting cryogenic measurements of silicon spin qubit devices, working with a team of scientists to build a cutting-edge cryogenic test laboratory, and developing and performing free-space, fiber, and chip-scale quantum optics experiments. Students interested in an internship at HRL are encouraged visit the HRL website<http://www.hrl.com/careers/internships/quantum> and send an email to quantum(a)uchicago.edu<mailto:quantum@uchicago.edu> after applying to facilitate the application. Rigetti Computing<https://www.rigetti.com/careers> is seeking an undergraduate or Master's student interested in the development of cloud-deployed quantum computers. The intern will be embedded into a core technical teams: Hardware, Software, or Quantum Engineering. In collaboration with technical staff, the intern will complete a project in one of the following areas: microwave engineering, cryogenic systems, nanofabrication, superconductivity, machine learning, quantum error correction, quantum optics, quantum and classical processor architectures, digital and analog signal processing, and quantum operating system software development. Applied Materials<http://www.appliedmaterials.com/> is seeking a graduate student for a Quantum Computing and Materials Technology internship. The intern will be responsible for kicking off Applied Materials’ technology exploration in the Quantum Computing and Si photonics domains, looking for specific segments and HVPs to target, making predictions about the market. Interested candidates should have a background in physics, computer science, or engineering with some experience in business, and should apply on the Applied Materials career portal<https://amat.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/University/job/Santa-ClaraCA/Quant…>. Happy holidays and best wishes, David Awschalom Liew Family Professor of Molecular Engineering, UChicago Senior Scientist, Argonne Director, Chicago Quantum Exchange Kate Waimey Timmerman Executive Director, Chicago Quantum Exchange
