Assistant Professor in Experimental Quantum Information Physics with Superconducting Circuits
An Assistant Professorship is available in the Superconducting Quantum Information Devices Lab (SQuID Lab) at the Niels Bohr Institute. The SQuID Lab is a research team within the Novo Nordisk Foundation Quantum Computing Programme (NQCP) and Center for Quantum Devices (QDev) at the Niels Bohr Institute. Our research falls broadly within two areas of superconducting quantum information physics:
We seek outstanding candidates with a proven record of research in experimental and theoretical quantum device and quantum computing physics. The ideal candidate will have ambition to work on severa aspects of experimental quantum information physics with superconducting circuits and to become an integral part of the senior researcher team within SQuID Lab.
The assistant professor’s duties will primarily include research, including obligations with regard to publication/scientific communication and research-based teaching with associated examination obligations within Quantum Computing. To a limited extent this may also include performance of other duties.
Assessment of applicants will primarily consider their level of documented, internationally competitive research. The ability to attract external funding will be considered together with outreach qualifications. Teaching qualifications are not mandatory but documented teaching qualifications and teaching experience will be considered.
Six overall criteria apply for assistant professor appointments at the University of Copenhagen. The six criteria (research, teaching, societal impact, organisational contribution, external funding and leadership) are considered a framework for the overall assessment of candidates. Furthermore, each candidate must be assessed according to the specific requirements stated in the job advertisement.

Further information on the Department can be found on the Niels Bohr Institutet – Niels Bohr Institutet - Københavns Universitet. Inquiries about can be made to Associate Professor Morten Kjaergaard (mkjaergaard@nbi.ku.dk) and Research Scientist Jacob Hastrup (jacob.hastrup@nbi.ku.dk).
Description of the scientific environment:
The Assistant Professor position will be embedded within the Superconducting Quantum Information Devices Lab (SQuID Lab), a team of roughly 15 researchers from bachelor to senior researcher level, working jointly at the Center for Quantum Devices and the Novo Nordisk Quantum Computing Programme, both located at the Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen.
The position is open from Jan 1st 2025 or by arrangement. The duration is three years with possible extension upon mutual agreement. The position is supported by grants from the ERC (Starting Grant) and Novo Nordisk Foundation (NQCP).
The University wishes our staff to reflect the diversity of society and thus welcomes applications from all qualified candidates regardless of personal background.
Terms of employment
The position has a duration of 3 years with possibility for extension.
The position is covered by the Memorandum on Job Structure for Academic Staff.
Terms of appointment and payment accord to the agreement between the Ministry of Finance and The Danish Confederation of Professional Associations on Academics in the State.
Negotiation for salary supplement is possible.
Appointment will be subject to receipt of a security clearance.
