Enter the fascinating world of the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt e. V.; DLR) and help shape the future through research and innovation! We offer an exciting and inspiring working environment driven by the expertise and curiosity of our 11,000 employees from 100 nations and our unique infrastructure. Together, we develop sustainable technologies and thus contribute to finding solutions to global challenges. Would you like to join us in addressing this major future challenge? Then this is your place!

The DLR Institute of Space Research is a world-leading competence centre for optical sensor systems and their use in planetary research, Earth observation and security. In this way, we are expanding humanity's understanding of the formation and development of our planetary system and finding solutions to protect life on Earth. With around 300 employees, we cover the entire development chain from the research idea to the design, construction and verification of instruments and their operational use, right through to the processing, scientific analysis and archiving of the data obtained.

What to expect

The Terahertz and Laser Spectroscopy department works on the development of customized optical systems with the aim of using them for laboratory analysis and for remote sensing of extraterrestrial objects inside and outside our galaxy. Another focus of the work is to adapt suitable laser spectroscopy methods for future robotic missions to explore our solar system.

Your tasks

• development of quantum memories for single and entangled photons based on atomic vapor cells at room temperature as part of a research project.
• miniaturization of quantum memories and establishment of a multiplexing technology to increase the storage capacity
• testing the compatibility of quantum memories with entangled photon pairs from a cavity SPDC source

Your profile

• completed scientific university studies (university diploma/master's degree) in physics, physical engineering or a comparable course of study relevant to the job with very good grades
• experience with experimental methods of quantum optics, especially with atomic systems, e.g. vapor cells
• proven, in-depth knowledge and interest in quantum optics and quantum technology
• basic knowledge of programming with Python
• very good written and spoken English skills

Depending on qualifications and tasks assigned, remuneration will be up to pay group 13 TVöD.

We offer

DLR stands for diversity, appreciation and equality for all people. We promote independent work and the individual development of our employees both personally and professionally.
