Your Role We are looking for a Quantum Design Engineer to help create and refine superconducting qubit architectures with built-in error resilience. The role focuses on maximizing coherence and fidelity while embedding error mitigation directly into circuit layouts and topology. You will take designs from simulation to fabrication and measurement, collaborating closely with fabrication and measurement teams to ensure theoretical advances translate into functional, scalable quantum devices. What You’ll DoDesign and simulate superconducting qubits and multi-qubit circuits, balancing high coherence with intrinsic error protection.Develop novel architectures that reduce reliance on external error correction through design-level solutions.Benchmark decoherence mechanisms and engineer circuit geometries to minimize loss, crosstalk, and noise sensitivity.Use electromagnetic and circuit simulation tools (e.g., HFSS, Sonnet, COMSOL, Qiskit Metal) alongside custom simulation workflows.Collaborate across disciplines to integrate design with fabrication and measurement protocols.Document and analyse results, using structured feedback loops to drive continuous improvement. Who You AreMSc or PhD in Physics, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.Expertise in superconducting qubits, circuit QED, or microwave quantum devices.Proficiency with electromagnetic and circuit simulation tools (HFSS, Sonnet, COMSOL, Qiskit Metal, or equivalent).Strong understanding of decoherence mechanisms and strategies to mitigate them through design.Experienced in connecting simulation results with experimental validation.Clear communicator and collaborator across design, fabrication, and measurement teams. What We OfferOpportunity to define and shape the architecture of next-generation superconducting quantum processors.Early-stage responsibility with direct influence on prototypes and roadmap.Collaborative, science-driven environment spanning design, fabrication, and experiment.Professional growth opportunities including mentoring, training, and leadership development.Competitive compensation and benefits, including relocation support
