Job Summary
The Circuits team sits at the interface of hardware development, manufacturing, and the system architecture to design the first fault-tolerant quantum computer. We are looking for a circuit design engineer to join the team. This is an individual contributor role involving close collaboration with all PsiQuantum’s technical teams with a focus on PICs design (schematics and floor planning, performance prediction, etc.), screening and test plans, as well as developing software tools for optical and quantum simulations. PIC designs particularly relevant to this role are complex photonic switch networks. Responsibilities
Work closely with photonics, electronics, and test engineers on data-driven circuit analysis. Design software functionality to meet requirements for parts of our in-house software design flow. Develop methodologies for evaluating implementation concepts and determining their feasibility. Extract predictive models, perform analysis, and run design checks on circuits. Experience/Qualifications
PhD or equivalent in EE, Physics, Computer Science or related field. Ability to work effectively in a new area designing first-of-their-kind photonic circuits. Experience programming in Python. Ability to work across domains and collaborate effectively with multi-disciplinary technical teams. Preferred
Experience with high-speed electro-optic phase shifters. Familiarity with photonic circuit concepts and GDS layout. Familiarity with git workflows and CI/CD pipelines. Working knowledge of quantum computing/quantum mechanics. Useful
Background in analogue and/or digital electrical circuit design. Equal Employment Opportunity
PsiQuantum provides equal employment opportunity for all applicants and employees. PsiQuantum does not unlawfully discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions), gender identity, gender expression, national origin, ancestry, citizenship, age, physical or mental disability, military or veteran status, marital status, domestic partner status, sexual orientation, genetic information, or any other basis protected by applicable laws. Note:
PsiQuantum will only reach out to you using an official PsiQuantum email address and will never ask you for bank account information as part of the interview process. Please report any suspicious activity to recruiting@psiquantum.com. We are not accepting unsolicited resumes from employment agencies. Salary and Benefits
The ranges below reflect target ranges for a new hire base salary. One range is for the Bay Area (within 50 miles of HQ, Palo Alto); the second range (if applicable) is for elsewhere in the US (beyond 50 miles of HQ, Palo Alto). Actual compensation may vary based on qualifications, location, and business needs. Base pay is one part of total compensation; full-time roles are eligible for equity and benefits. Base pay may be modified in the future. U.S. Base Pay Range $130,000 - $145,000 USD Bay Area Pay Range $145,000 - $165,000 USD Apply for this job
