At a glance
As a Senior Quantum Systems Electrical Engineer, you will join the team building a scaled, fault-tolerant quantum computer grounded in topological qubits. You will collaborate with physicists and software engineers to design and deliver FPGA-based, ultra-low-latency digital subsystems for the topological quantum engine. Your daily work involves designing prototype circuits, PCBs, and mixed-signal electronics, as well as developing high-speed interconnects and precision clocking networks. You will utilize tools including scopes, VNAs, and RF instruments to validate custom circuits. Required technical skills include experience with RFSoC architectures, RTL, and FPGA design, alongside proficiency in Windows, Linux, VS Code, Git, and Azure DevOps CI/CD. You will also use Tcl and Python for scripted builds to solve complex problems in readout classification and error-decoder acceleration.
