Senior Hardware Engineer, Integrated Circuit Design, Quantum Ai

As a Quantum Integrated Circuit Designer, you will support the physical design and simulations of quantum processors and associated analog, DC, and RF devices and help to build robust infrastructure for design production. Our Quantum Processor designs are produced through an iterative process of working with custom programmatic CAD layout tools, graphical layout tools such as K-Layout and various Finite Element Simulation tools for physical device simulations. You will lay out mask schematics and run finite element simulations to integrate design metadata in software tools and expand on design infrastructure and automation.

Google Research is building the next generation of intelligent systems for all Google products. To achieve this, we’re working on projects that utilize the latest computer science techniques developed by skilled software engineers and research scientists. Google Research teams collaborate closely with other teams across Google, maintaining the flexibility and versatility required to adapt new projects and foci that meet the demands of the world's fast-paced business needs.

Minimum qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Physics, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
