Quantum Chip Design Engineer

We are seeking a highly skilled Engineer for Quantum Chips to develop systems that automate and optimize quantum layout generation and design workflows. In this role, you will bridge the gap between quantum hardware architecture and cleanroom fabrication, building the scalable software infrastructure required to layout design-ready superconducting qubits, resonators, and control lines.
Key Responsibilities: Superconducting Quantum Layout
- Automated Layout Generation: Develop Python-based algorithms and tooling to automate the generation, manipulation, and validation of complex superconducting quantum chip layouts (GDSII format).
- QPU Architecture Optimization: Apply optimization algorithms to optimize qubit placement, minimize crosstalk, and maximize two-qubit gate fidelities.
- Quantum Routing: Develop algorithms for design and silmulation microwave control and readout lines on planar or multi-layer (flip-chip) architectures.
- Error Reduction: Identify gaps in current workflows and propose automated solutions to minimize layout errors, ensuring precise control over critical microwave and microwave-coplanar waveguide (CPW) geometries.
