Job Description
Quantum computing holds the promise of humanitys mastery over the natural world but only if we can build a real quantum computer. PsiQuantum is on a mission to build the first real useful quantum computers capable of delivering the worldchanging applications that the technology has long promised. We know that means we will need to build a system with roughly 1 million qubits that supports fault tolerant error correction within a scalable architecture and a data center footprint.
By harnessing the laws of quantum physics quantum computers can provide exponential performance increases over todays most powerful supercomputers offering the potential for extraordinary advances across a broad range of industries including climate energy healthcare pharmaceuticals finance agriculture transportation materials design and many more.
PsiQuantum has determined the fastest path to delivering a useful quantum computer years earlier than the rest of the industry. Our architecture is based on silicon photonics which gives us the ability to produce our components at Tier1 semiconductor fabs such as GlobalFoundries where we leverage highvolume semiconductor manufacturing processes the same processes that are already producing billions of chips for telecom and consumer electronics applications. We also benefit from the quantum mechanics reality that photons dont feel heat or electromagnetic interference allowing us to take advantage of existing cryogenic cooling systems and industry standard fiber connectivity.
In 2024 PsiQuantum announced two governmentfunded projects to support the buildout of our first Quantum Data Centers and utilityscale quantum computers in Brisbane Australia and Chicago Illinois. Both projects are backed by nations that understand quantum computings potential impact and the need to scale this technology to unlock that potential. And we wont just be building the hardware but also the fault tolerant quantum applications that will provide industrytransforming results.
Quantum computing is not just an evolution of the decadesold advancement in compute power. It provides the key to mastering our future not merely discovering it. The potential is enormous and we have the plan to make it real. Come join us.
Theres much more work to be done and we are looking for exceptional talent to join us on this extraordinary journey!
Job Summary:
At PsiQuantum we are developing and testing prototype modules which will scale into a datacentersized faulttolerant quantum computer. Modules or subsystems of this computer are designed to generate entangled states of photons that when scaled up and networked together collectively enable quantum error correction and quantum algorithms. The Manager of Quantum Subsystem Validation will lead a focused team to validate the performance of one or more fully integrated quantum subsystems including photonic optic cryogenic electronic electrooptical firmware and software aspects. The team will plan and execute design validation testing of the subsystem define and validate automated calibration and selftest functions and develop novel quantum characterization verification and validation techniques for photonic qubit states.
Responsibilities:
- Manage the validation team for the quantum subsystem including technical oversight project management talent management performance evaluations and coaching.
- Develop validation objectives validation and verification plans and execute to deliver on these objectives within a demanding development schedule.
- Plan and execute system integration test points of hardware firmware software to ensure that issues are identified and debugged at an appropriate level of integration before the full subsystem test.
- Lead the definition and documentation of the quantum and semiclassical calibration selftest and diagnostic functions of the subsystem. Define and validate quantum tests at intermediate points in the quantum computer to verify the quantum photonic states being generated meet system requirements.
- Provide crossfunctional support to other engineering teams by communicating designfortest requirements calibration requirements data acquisition and processing requirements performance data and debugging support for all issues arising during subsystemlevel tests.
- Lead the assessment of the subsystems in situ performance evaluation while it is operated within a larger system.
Experience/Qualifications:
- Demonstrated ability to lead complex technical projects involving the integration of optical and electronic hardware firmware software and data infrastructure.
- Demonstrated experience with some or all of the following:
- Demonstrated ability to design and execute complex experiments or engineering tests in a crossfunctional environment.
- Proven team player with an ability to work effectively across departments sites time zones.
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills with an ability to communicate effectively to a variety of audiences including senior leadership and technical experts.
- Demonstrated interest in PsiQuantums mission and vision for quantum computing with an ability to contribute within a fastpaced startup environment consistent with PsiQuantums values of communication collaboration respect results and challenge.
