The AWS Center for Quantum Computing in Pasadena, CA, is looking to hire a Research Scientist specializing in Mixed-Signal Design. Working alongside other scientists and engineers, you will design and validate hardware performing the control and readout functions for AWS quantum processors. Candidates must have a strong background in mixed-signal design at the printed circuit board (PCB) level. Working effectively within a cross-functional team setting is critical. The ideal candidate will have previous experience with hardware development through multiple product life-cycles, from requirements generation to design validation.
AWS Utility Computing (UC) provides product innovations — from foundational services such as Amazon’s Simple Storage Service (S3) and Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), to consistently released new product innovations that continue to set AWS’s services and features apart in the industry. As a member of the UC organization, you’ll support the development and management of Compute, Database, Storage, Internet of Things (Iot), Platform, and Productivity Apps services in AWS, including support for customers who require specialized security solutions for their cloud services.
Key job responsibilities
Our scientists and engineers collaborate across diverse teams and projects to offer state of the art, cost effective solutions for the control of AWS quantum processor systems. You’ll bring a passion for innovation, collaboration, and mentoring to:
Solve layered technical problems, often ones not encountered before, across our hardware stack.
Develop requirements with key system stakeholders, including quantum device, test and measurement, cryogenic hardware, and theory teams.
Design, implement, test, deploy, and maintain innovative solutions that meet both strict performance and cost metrics.
Research enabling technologies necessary for AWS to produce commercially viable quantum computers.
