Jonas Bylander has been on the faculty at Chalmers since 2013, teaching quantum optics, quantum information, and nanotechnology.

Jonas's current research is focused on building a quantum computer with superconducting circuits.

** We welcome applications from motivated postdocs with expertise in experimental quantum computing or closely related areas; microwave simulation and measurement techniques; optimal control techniques; and nanofabrication of solid-state quantum electronic devices with knowledge of materials and surfaces **
Principal investigator in the Wallenberg Centre for Quantum Technology (WACQT), an initiative aimed to bring Swedish academia and industry to the forefront of quantum technology and specifically to build a superconducting quantum computer.

Principal investigator in OpenSuperQ, a project with 10 partners funded by the European Commission's Flagship on Quantum Technology with the goal of building a superconducting quantum computer.
