Job Description

Microsoft Quantum has assembled a talented and diverse international team to create the world’s first scalable quantum computing system. Our full-stack approach involves exciting innovations from physics on the quantum plane to providing global quantum services. With new developments happening at every part of the stack, it is more important than ever to characterize and validate how the individual components come together to form an integrated system. Our Systems Integration team is looking for a skilled Electrical Engineer with a passion for collaboration to help build and characterize the world’s first topological quantum computer. This role combines circuit design and simulation with hands-on system integration in a research hardware environment. The Quantum Electrical Engineer will contribute to the design, simulation, and validation of RF and electronic components, and apply these designs in both room-temperature and cryogenic systems. The role also involves developing measurement and analysis workflows, supporting hardware bring-up, and troubleshooting system performance. The candidate can have a background in electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, or applied physics, is comfortable working across simulation and lab environments, and can write clear, maintainable code for instrumentation and data analysis. Collaboration and problem-solving skills are essential. Microsoft’s mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more.
