Emma Rosenfeld is a Senior Research Scientist at Google Quantum AI, where she leads the Quantum Error Correction experimental team focused on implementing cutting-edge protocols to scale fault-tolerant quantum processors. Prior to joining Google, she spent three years as a Quantum Research Scientist at Amazon Web Services (AWS), guiding a research team through quantum hardware de-risking and technology innovation.
Emma completed her Ph.D. in Physics at Harvard University under Prof. Mikhail Lukin, where she developed experimental platforms and theoretical protocols for coherent spin-qubit control and quantum sensing in solid-state systems. Her broader background includes early quantum exploration at X (the moonshot factory) and computational detector physics at Boston University. She works at the experimental frontier of turning quantum error correction theory into scalable, practical architectures.
