Job description

The Quantum Design Engineer will join Intel's Quantum Computing Group, focusing on the development of silicon-based quantum processors. This role involves collaborating with a talented team to scale quantum computing chips to millions of qubits. The engineer will engage in all aspects of the qubit chip process, from conception to design execution and system integration. This position combines cutting-edge semiconductor technology with quantum physics to create innovative computing solutions.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree with 4 years of experience, Master's degree with 3 years of experience, or Ph.D. degree in Physics, Electrical Engineering, Cryogenic Engineering, Quantum Technologies, or Quantum Engineering or related Engineering field.
  • Must possess 1+ years experience with at least one of the following: Electromagnetic modeling and simulation tools, standard cell design, digital design tools, or implementing PDK collateral.

Responsibilities

  • Work alongside lithography, process integration, measurement, and PDK engineers to establish qubit processes and design rules.
  • Architect qubit and readout element standard cell design and automation.
  • Engage with TCAD and PDK engineers to create qubit and read-out universal process files.
  • Partner with quantum software and control engineers to analyze tradeoffs on quantum error correction schemes.
  • Design automation to enable front end design automation and routing generation for large scale quantum processors.
  • Create Automated Place and Route flows for qubit routing, including AI and machine-based learning routing optimization.
  • Drive signal integrity analysis to define routing strategies for large scale qubit processors.
  • Perform industry standard design validations such as DRC, LVS, and Extraction prior to tapein signoff.
  • Work closely with Control, Packaging and System teams to co-design Interposer interfaces.
  • Ensure successful implementation of Intel quantum PDK design collateral and EDA tool capabilities for External Customers.

Benefits

  • Intel offers a comprehensive benefits package including competitive pay, stock programs, healthcare coverage, retirement plans, paid time off, parental leave, and programs supporting employee wellbeing and professional development.
