Full job description

We are seeking a highly skilled Senior Verification Engineer to join our team. The successful candidate will be responsible for the hands-on verification of ultra-low-power cryo-control systems for our quantum processors. You will take technical ownership of functional verification ensuring correct operation expected performance and robustness of complete sections of the cryo-control system for a multiqubit processor.

If youre curious about quantum computing but havent worked in the field before this is an opportunity to apply your verification expertise to a new domain where the challenges are unique the learning curve is steep but the impact is extraordinary.

Main Duties and Responsibilities

• Work closely with architecture and hardware teams to understand the functional requirements of cryo-control systems and translate them into detailed verification plans and test sequences.
• Take responsibility for the verification of specific cryo-control sub-systems driving the process from initial test planning through to 100% functional and code coverage.
• Create execute and maintain directed and constrained-random testcases to verify the functionality performance and robustness of cryo-control designs against specifications.
• Develop and execute low-power verification strategies including UPF-based power intent modelling power-state coverage and verification of power-gating retention and isolation behaviour across cryogenic operating modes.
• Design implement and continuously improve scalable verification infrastructure spanning unitlevel to full usecase modelling. Build modular reusable SystemVerilog environments and Pythonbased tooling to verify complex control loops and quantumclassical interfaces.
• Drive bestpractice methodology adoption using opensource frameworks rigorous version control with git and automated CI pipelines (e.g. GitHub Actions) for regression execution results dashboarding and reporting. Contribute to custom tools and automation to enhance productivity maintainability and quality across the wider team.
• Act as the primary technical bridge to the lab validation team. When issues are identified during cryo-characterisation in the fridge you will lead the effort to replicate silicon behaviour in the simulation environment perform root-cause analysis and develop regression tests to ensure long-term stability.
• Generate clear and concise documentation reports and regular presentations to communicate verification plans status and metrics to stakeholders.

Experience and Qualifications

• Bachelors or Masters degree in Electrical Engineering Computer Science or a related field.
• At least 7 years of experience in SoC verification some of which involve post-silicon validation support.
• Proficiency in SystemVerilog and hardware description languages (Verilog). Experience of C/C development and debug. Strong scripting skills in Python for test automation and data analysis. Experience with UPF or similar power-intent methodologies is highly desirable.
• Advanced problem-solving skills with the ability to debug complex issues across the digitalanalog boundary and translate lab observations into simulation-based fixes.
• Familiarity with high-speed and real-time control loops embedded processor architectures or mixed-signal systems and AMS is beneficial.
• Strong communication and collaboration skills with the ability to work effectively across physics analog and digital design teams.
• Self-motivated and able to drive technical tasks from start to finish with minimal supervision in a fast-paced R&D environment.

If you are a highly motivated and experienced SoC verification engineer looking for a challenging and rewarding role we encourage you to apply for this exciting opportunity.
