System Architect

Quantum Machines is a global leader in control systems for quantum computing, a field on the verge of exponential growth.

Our innovative hardware and software mark a groundbreaking approach in quantum computer control, scaling from individual qubits to expansive arrays of thousands.

At the core of QM lies a passionate and ambitious team committed to reshaping the construction and operation of quantum computers.

Our work is fueled by a deep understanding of customer needs, driving us to deliver unparalleled solutions in this revolutionary field.

We are seeking an exceptional architect to join our architecture team and shape the future of quantum control. We have a unique opportunity to set the architecture of the next-generation quantum computers towards utility scale quantum computing. 

In this role, you will define architecture of the next generation system, from the analog front end, DACs / ADCs, cooling solution, building blocks and communication interfaces. Designing a scalable architecture of quantum control requires deep understanding of quantum computing, system tradeoffs and product requirements. In this role, you’ll work closely with Product to define the hardware requirements and an architecture to address them. You’ll identify system level tradeoffs, identify solutions alternatives and define POCs to evaluate them. 

In your role you’ll be working closely with all R&D teams and in particular the system, hardware and logic teams. 

Responsibilities: 

• Architecture for the next generation quantum control system and hardware.
• Define system-level architecture and features, providing detailed specifications to the various R&D teams.  
• Collaborate with the product and research teams to transform high level requirements into architecture and spec definitions and presenting tradeoffs.
• Lead, formulate, and assess research and proof-of-concepts (POCs) for new architecture and technical capabilities and experiment hands-on as needed.
• Work with partners and vendors on requirements and joint development to optimize the product capabilities.
  
  

• BSc. in Electrical Engineering, or a degree in Experimental Physics. MSc. or PhD – an advantage.
• 5+ years experience in system architecture and/or system engineering with a preference for experience in RF, high-performance computing systems or communication systems.
• Exceptional technical skills, with capacity and foundation to comprehend and analyze academic content.
• Ability to work in a multidisciplinary environment.
• Ability to collaborate with partners, vendors and customers. 
• Strong interpersonal and communication skills.
• Experience in digital design, chip design or verification - an advantage.
• Background in physics / quantum physics / quantum computing - an advantage.
