The role
The High-Performance Networks group (HPN), part of the Smart Internet Lab (SIL), is internationally leading and highly influential in the field of quantum networking. We are looking for a highly motivated, enthusiastic person, with passion for research in topics such as quantum networks, entanglement distribution, quantum key distribution, advanced optical network for quantum technologies and artificial intelligence in optical/quantum networks. The successful candidate will join the HPN group to carry out research in topics and participate in project, the EPSRC Quantum Communications Hub (ends in November 2024) and the EU H2020 project, ALLEGRO (42 month, Jan 2023- July 2026).
You will be offered one of the following three salary grades: Research Associate (I), Senior Research Associate (J), or Research Fellow (K); depending on the skills and experience you are able to bring to the role.
What will you be doing?
You will be responsible for carrying out research on the entanglement-based quantum networks and developing various use cases including but not limited to applying machine learning algorithms for network optimisation, exploring the dynamicity of the quantum network and co-existence scheme of quantum links with classical optical channels. Some demonstrated research experience with QKD experiments and optical networking experiments is preferred. You will be expected to contribute to the research in the HPN group by developing future networking solutions for quantum technologies over deployed network testbeds in Bristol.
