About the job

The Quantum team’s mission is to make quantum computing tools available to the world to enable humankind to solve problems that would otherwise be impossible. The Quantum electronics team is carrying out a broad range of Research and Development (R&D) aimed at implementing the best quantum computers in the world, with a long-term goal of realizing a fault-tolerant quantum computer.

In this role, you will be an executive member of the quantum electronics team, providing leadership and mentorship as we implement sophisticated electronics for control and readout of our current and future quantum computers. You will lead a team of Field-programmable Gate Array (FPGA) designers and radio frequency/application management services hardware engineers, collaborating with adjacent teams in the electronic, software, and quantum engineering areas to implement complex systems for use in the readout and control of our scaled quantum processors and deploy these systems to our quantum computers. You will mentor engineers, administer industrial design practices and provide performance feedback. You will develop an understanding of the electronic control and measurement needs of quantum computers and contribute to project roadmapping and scoping, as well as developing new capabilities and anticipating future needs by collaborating with other quantum engineers and scientists. You will collaborate with adjacent teams and executive members of the quantum electronics team to contribute to long-term strategy.
