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 world-changing 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 Tier-1 semiconductor fabs such as GlobalFoundries where we leverage high-volume 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 government-funded projects to support the build-out of our first Quantum Data Centers and utility-scale 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 industry-transforming results.
Quantum computing is not just an evolution of the decades-old 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 a datacenter-scale quantum computer which consists of millions of photonic optical and electronic components. In our quantum computer architecture complex networks of high-speed electro-optical switches route optical pulses based on real-time data. These photonic components and subsystems require real-time logic firmware and software to coordinate and control them. The Quantum Systems Validation team is seeking an experienced Systems Integration Test Engineer to develop and execute design validation tests of electro-optical subsystems together with their software and control functions.
Responsibilities:
- Develop document and execute design validation plans for integrated electro-optical systems which include electro-optical switch devices polarization controllers optical delay lines single-photon detectors custom electronics FPGAs sensors control loops and their associated logic firmware and software functions.
- Develop and maintain one or more test stations for optical electronic firmware software integration testing.
- Prototype debug and validate calibration and self-test functions of complex electro-optical systems.
- Write design-for-test requirements for hardware firmware and software functions to enable system validation.
- Work with software and firmware engineers to define hardware-in-the-loop regression tests.
- Collaborate with Quantum Systems Validation engineers to ensure test coverage of all hardware and software functions and to verify correlation between system-level quantum performance and subsystem level test outcomes.
- Write validation reports and communicate test outcomes broadly to internal stakeholders.
Experience/Qualifications:
- B.S. or equivalent degree in Electrical Engineering or related subject with minimum 7 years relevant practical experience in a scientific or advanced engineering environment.
- Experience developing validation plans for integrated systems of photonic integrated circuits mixed signal and digital electronics fiber networking or similar devices.
- Experience with RF and mixed-signal electronics testing.
- Experience working with instrumentation used in the photonics and electronics industry.
- Software development for instrumentation controls and test equipment (python preferred).
- Problem-solving mindset with the ability to operate in a fast-moving environment.
- Experience working in a multidisciplinary team.
- Effective communications skills to collaborate with various engineering teams and internal stakeholders.
- Demonstrated interest in PsiQuantums mission and vision for quantum computing with an ability to contribute within a fast-paced start-up environment consistent with PsiQuantums values of communication collaboration respect results and challenge.
