About Xanadu:
Xanadus mission is to build quantum computers that are useful and available to people everywhere.
At Xanadu we are learners innovators researchers collaborators and problem solvers. We are creating something that has never been built before. Few people in their life will be able to be a part of something like this where if we are successful the technologies we develop will solve some of the worlds most challenging problems and literally change the world. And that is something to be excited about!
Your role and responsibilities:
As part of the Hardware Team you will work with our established team of physicists and engineers to develop highperformance custom electronic boards for photonic quantum computers. In the role of senior electrical engineer you will contribute your experience spanning precision analog measurement and digital control. You will join a growing team dedicated to architecting the analog and digital electronics that control and acquire data from quantum photonic devices. Working handson in the lab you will develop optimize refine and debug electronic modules that interface with complex and noisesensitive optoelectronic instruments. With your strong background in designing testing and implementing lownoise analog and mixedsignal circuits you will drive the development of the electronic control architecture for the worlds first photonic quantum computers.
Basic qualifications and experience:
- BSc or higher in electrical engineering.
- 5 years industry or academic experience in a relevant discipline.
- Selfmotivated comfortable working both independently and collaboratively on complex projects in a fastpaced environment.
- Strong interpersonal skills.
Preferred qualifications and experience:
