Candidates must also have a strong background in both cryogenic mechanical engineering theory and implementation. Working effectively within a cross-functional team environment is critical.

Key job

responsibilities: High density novel packaging solutions for quantum processor units

Cryogenic mechanical design for novel cryogenic signal conditioning sub-assemblies

Cryogenic mechanical design for signal delivery systems

Simulation-driven designs (shielding, filtering, etc.) to reduce sources of EMI within the qubit environment.

Own end-to-end product development through requirements, design reports, design reviews, assembly/testing documentation, and final delivery

A day in the life:
