What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior RF Control Systems Engineer position at Quantum Circuits?
Quantum Circuits, Inc. (QCI) is developing a full-stack quantum computing platform using superconducting devices and a modular, robust, and scalable architecture. QCI's mission is to build the first truly useful quantum computers.
Our novel approach to building quantum computers is based on technology developed over a decade of research at Yale University's world-class quantum labs. Our machines have built-in error correction, unique software features that enable lightning-fast algorithm execution, and multiple modes of operation to solve more algorithms than ever, all in one quantum computer.
So, why join QCI? You’ll be working with the latest technology at our state-of-the-art facilities, where your curiosity, ingenuity, and initiative will thrive - you'll learn a ton by working with us and have a lot of fun doing it. We have a deep, fast-paced team that's passionate about building the best quantum computers in the world. Join us if you want to be at the forefront of the quantum revolution.
This position plays a critical role in the core mission of QCI: building scalable, high-performance quantum computers. Our quantum hardware is based on superconducting circuits that require specialized handling, microwave measurement, and data analysis. Our control systems include tightly integrated instrument control, real time feedback and low latency digital interconnects. Your work will have a direct impact on the performance of our quantum computers.
We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Senior RF Control Systems Engineer to join our team. In this role, you will be responsible for designing, developing, and implementing control systems for RF control systems for deployment on our quantum hardware.
