Research Fellow (Quantum Circuits)

Singapore National Technological University Approximately SGD 5,000–8,000 per month, depending on qualifications, research experience, and funding.*
Job Description

This role involves conducting research in quantum circuits, likely focusing on quantum-device design, fabrication, measurement, simulation, or related experimental work. Candidates are generally expected to hold a PhD in physics, electrical engineering, materials science, quantum engineering, or a closely related discipline. Experience with quantum information, superconducting circuits, nanofabrication, cryogenic measurements, microwave systems, numerical modelling, or laboratory instrumentation would be valuable. The successful candidate should demonstrate strong research ability, publishable results, technical problem-solving skills, and the capacity to work independently while collaborating with academic and industry partners. Good scientific writing, presentation, project-management, and communication skills are also expected.

Company Info

Employment terms, benefits, and salary depend on the project, funding source, academic qualifications, and relevant experience.

Destination Guide

Singapore offers strong opportunities in research, engineering, technology, finance, healthcare, education, and advanced manufacturing. Universities, government research institutes, and companies regularly recruit scientists and engineers, although competition can be high. The culture is multicultural, orderly, and generally safe, with English widely used at work and in daily life. Public transport is efficient, and most areas are easily accessible by MRT and buses. Lifestyle options range from hawker centres and neighbourhood markets to shopping districts, parks, beaches, and a lively arts and dining scene. Housing is expensive, especially near central areas, so newcomers often compare university accommodation, shared apartments, and suburbs such as Jurong, Clementi, or Punggol. Foreign professionals normally require an Employment Pass, while research appointments may use an appropriate work pass arranged by the employer. Applicants should confirm eligibility, salary thresholds, insurance, tax, and relocation support before accepting an offer.
