Control Electronic

Alice & Bob is developing the first universal, fault-tolerant quantum computer to solve the world's hardest problems.The quantum computer we envision building is based on a new kind of superconducting qubit : the Schrödinger cat qubit. In comparison to other superconducting platforms, cat qubits have the astonishing ability to implement quantum error correction autonomouslyWe are at the forefront of the quantum race, competing with tech giants such as Google or IBM, and we are growing fast after securing €100 million of funding in 2025 to develop our unique technology.Currently 100+ and counting, between physicists, PhD students, engineers and experienced business professionals, we are united to reach our ambitious goal. Are you a quantum pioneer? Join us on a mission to reshape the futureResponsibilitiesTesting & Validation: Operate the existing drive electronics systems including monitoring, performance checks and software updates.Adapt existing systems to new quantum chip designsDevelop and implement V&Vs plans, mostly in Python and using equipment such as VNAs, fast oscilloscopes, SMUs, signal generators, ...Analyze and comment your resultsEnsure all systems meet Alice & Bob's rigorous standards for accuracy, reliability, and efficiency.Troubleshooting & Optimization: Identify, troubleshoot, and resolve technical issues related to the instrumentation and control electronics, ensuring continuous operation within our quantum processor.Stock managementAssist in stock management for all parts needed in the implementation of the racks and characterization benchesAlign with purchasing team to place orders to maintain and develop the stock of equipmentOrganize and manage shipments with distributors and partnersDesign & Development: Design and integrate electronics systems for future quantum computing set-ups, including the integration of microwave, RF, and DC electronics.Upgrade the existing systems to evolving requirements, including spectral purity, pulse shape and power stabilityContinuous Improvement: Technology watch on state of the art instrumentation for quantum control electronicsEvaluate and choose equipment among existing commercial solutionsPropose and organize test plans / test benches to evaluate new equipment and featuresDrive ongoing improvements of the control electronics design and performance, keeping up with the latest technological progress.Collaboration with Cross-Functional Teams & partners: Work closely with other engineering teams, including your teammate, Quantum Hardware Infra colleagues, physicists and software engineers, to ensure the seamless alignment of hardware and software in our quantum processors.Interact with our internal purchasers to order equipmentInteract with suppliers & partners on a technical levelDocumentation & Reporting: Ensure all design processes, test results, and system configurations are thoroughly documented.
