About the job

In this role you will develop and integrate both fabrication processes and hybridization/assembly components needed to support our quantum processor roadmap. You will collaborate with fabrication, design, architecture, and packaging teams to identify new capabilities, evaluate potential options, and drive development from concept through processor and package/assembly integration, this includes maintaining documentation, performing analysis of inline fabrication and e-test data, and driving yield improvement for new and existing components.

The full potential of quantum computing will be unlocked with a large-scale computer capable of complex, error-corrected computations. Google Quantum AI’s mission is to build this computer and unlock solutions to classically intractable problems. Our roadmap is focused on advancing the capabilities of quantum computing and enabling meaningful applications.
