About the role

QuantWare is building the world's most powerful quantum processors to solve humanity's greatest challenges. We do this with our unique VIO™ technology, the only QPU architecture that breaks the hardware barriers that have held quantum computing back, unlocking the path to MegaQubit quantum processors. With VIO, we are paving the way for the hyper-scale quantum computers that will change the world. And delivering on that vision demands people who don't shy away from tackling the hardest challenges of our time. That's where you come in! Our Quantum Processor Team is seeking excellent Quantum R&D Engineers to develop the next generation of processors. This role is focused on improving processor performance by developing, validating and iterating on-chip quantum components. You will take ownership of the end-to-end development cycle, creating designs, collaborating with our fabrication teams and performing cryogenic measurement to inform design iterations. These quantum components will be integrated in our large-scale QPUs. What are you going to do? Design & Simulate: Develop new and improved on-chip architectures that enhance processor performance. Contribute to integration into large, scalable processors. Measure & Validate: Close the feedback loop by performing cryogenic measurements on your own designs to validate performance and inform design improvements. Automate: Write and improve code to automate design, simulation, and measurement workflows. Collaborate : Work across teams to ensure rapid design-to-test cycles
