Quantum Engineering Solutions (QES) enables researchers to scale their quantum computers. By combining deep expertise in electronic measurement, RF and mixed-signal technologies, FPGA-based processing, and quantum software, QES enables customers to address all the engineering challenges of quantum computing.

As part of the QES R&D team, your role will be to contribute to the RF architecture of our next-generation, high-density quantum control platform. You will evaluate RF and microwave components through datasheet analysis, simulation, and laboratory measurements; develop test plans and automated characterization methods; and compare candidate solutions against performance, integration, cost, power, and scalability requirements. You will document your findings and work with RF, hardware, FPGA, and software engineers to translate measurement results into component recommendations and architecture trade-offs.

Minimum Qualifications

• Pursuing a MS in Electrical Engineering or a related field
• Understanding of RF fundamentals, including impedance, transmission lines, S-parameters, gain, noise figure, linearity, and frequency response
• Understanding of signal processing, including filtering, resampling, digital up conversion and digital down conversion.
• Hands-on experience with electronic measurement equipment such as vector network analyzers, spectrum analyzers, signal generators, oscilloscopes, or power meters
• Ability to develop structured test plans, analyze measurement data, and compare components against technical requirements and design trade-offs
• Ability to communicate technical findings clearly and work effectively in a multidisciplinary R&D team

Desired Qualifications

• Pursuing an MS or PhD in Electrical Engineering or a related field is preferred
• Coursework or project experience in circuit design, signal processing, RF systems, electromagnetic theory, and signal integrity
• Experience characterizing RF components such as amplifiers, mixers, attenuators, filters, switches, couplers, synthesizers, or data converters
• Experience using Python for instrument automation, data analysis, and visualization
• Base knowledge in quantum computing
