We present technological advances towards a fault tolerant shuttling-based trapped-ion quantum processing node. Recently we have successfully demonstrated four-qubit GHZ states using sequential entangling gates [1] and a dc magnetometer with quantum enhanced performance [2]. One essential component to realise these experiments is a custom-made high-speed multi-channel waveform generator. Voltage waveforms required for such operations are computed using a versatile software framework, which is capable of automatically generating optimized waveforms for various ion transport operations. We also report advances made on the generation of the quantizing magnetic field and its stability, using alignable permanent magnets inside a mu-metal chamber, which is essential to reach high coherence times [3]. Finally, we will present results of ongoing work on a fault-tolerant error syndrome measurement scheme using six trapped-ions.
