Full Job Description
## Description Alice & Bob is developing the first universal, fault-tolerant quantum computer to solve the world’s hardest problems. The quantum computer we envision building is based on a new kind of superconducting qubit: the Schrödinger cat qubit 🐈⬛. In comparison to other superconducting platforms, cat qubits have the astonishing ability to implement quantum error correction autonomously! We're a diverse team of 200+ brilliant minds from over 30 countries united by a single goal: to revolutionise computing with a practical fault-tolerant quantum machine. Are you ready to take on unprecedented challenges and contribute to revolutionising technology? Join us, and let's shape the future of quantum computing together! ## Responsibilities Integrate and test control electronics and instrumentation (RF, DC, etc.) with the help of senior engineers. Characterize, simulate, and design RF hardware at room temperature and cryogenic temperatures (bias tees, filters, …) Rapidly design and prototype sub-systems for Qubits control, considering the electromechanical integration inside of the cryostat or the racks. Analyze and compare different RF component manufacturing technologies (substrates, processes, connectors, packaging, cables, etc.) in terms of performance, EMC, accessibility, and feasibility. Assist with test bench setup, cabling, equipment maintenance and monitoring. Perform lab measurements using RF bench equipment (VNAs and analyzers). Define, optimize, and automate the test programs needed to qualify or validate system hardware conformity. Preparing complete, well-documented test plans and reports results. Monitor instrument and component stock. Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to develop and integrate systems required to control quantum chip architectures. ## Requirements Engineering or master's student (4-5 years of higher education) specializing in microwave frequencies, RF electronics, telecommunications, applied physics, computing, instrumentation
