DR. JOSEPH GLICK

Special Advisor – Quantum Commercialization

Joe Glick is a Quantum Application Scientist at Qblox with a PhD in physics. He works with clients on the pre-sales side, configuring systems, building labs, qubit demos, and developing scalable solutions for customers. He has spent much of his career developing novel control electronics, building fridges, calibrating qubits, and working on hardware characterization and testing in the lab. His experience and past interests include cryogenic CMOS, superconducting electronics (SFQ), spintronics, and quantum many-body physics. 

Prior to being with Qbox Joe worked at IBM Quantum for almost seven years, pairing cryogenic electronics with superconducting qubits that can be deployed at scale, primarily to support quantum error correction. During his PhD at Michigan State University, Joe did research on Josephson-junction based cryogenic memories. He spent the better part of six years working in a cleanroom and performing cryogenic transport and magnetic measurements on superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs). During his B.S. and Masters degree at Colorado School of Mines, Joe worked with high performance computers to perform quantum Hamiltonian simulations on ultra-cold atoms with Bose Einstein condensates (BEC) in optical lattice traps.
