Efficient optical quantum memories are a milestone required for several quantum technologies including repeater-based quantum key distribution and on-demand multi-photon generation [1,2]. We present an optimization of the storage efficiency of an optical electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) memory experiment in a warm cesium vapor using a genetic algorithm to update the control laser waveform. The write pulse is represented either as a Gaussian or free-form pulse, and the results from the optimization are analyzed and compared. We find that the free-form pulses offer a 3%(7) improvement in efficiency, over the learned Gaussian. By limiting the allowed pulse power in a solution, we show a power-based optimization giving a 30% reduction in power, with minimal efficiency loss.
