The Department of Physics at New York University invites applications for a tenure-track faculty line for an experimental physicist in the area of quantum information physics. We welcome applications from researchers studying solid state quantum information platforms, including, but not limited to, superconducting devices, spin systems, two-dimensional materials, and defect/vacancy physical systems.

The successful candidate is expected to initiate and lead a vibrant research group, be a strongly interacting member of the newly established Center for Quantum Information Physics within the Physics Department, and contribute to teaching at the undergraduate and graduate levels. We are especially interested in candidates who, through their research, teaching, and/or service, will contribute to the diversity and excellence of the academic community. Applications will be considered at the tenure-track Assistant Professor level. The review of applications will begin on November 15th 2024. The Department values diversity among its faculty and welcomes applications from women, persons with disabilities, protected veterans, and underrepresented minorities. The anticipated start date is Sept 1st, 2025, pending administrative and budgetary approval.

Arts and Science lies at the heart of a leading research university that spans the globe. We seek scholars of the highest caliber that embody the diversity of the United States as well as the global society in which we live. We strongly encourage applications from women, racial and ethnic minorities, and other individuals who are under-represented in the profession, across color, creed, race, ethnic and national origin, physical ability, gender and sexual identity, or any other legally protected basis. NYU affirms the value of differing perspectives on the world as we strive to build the strongest possible university with the widest reach.
