Job Title

PMTS Superconducting Quantum Engineer

Role Summary

The PMTS Superconducting Quantum Engineer is a senior technical contributor in Quantum Product Development responsible for developing and integrating semiconductor technologies for scalable quantum computing systems. The role leads integration architecture, defines experimental roadmaps, and drives cross-disciplinary programs to turn emerging quantum concepts into manufacturable technologies.

Experience Level

Senior-level. Requires 15+ years of semiconductor process integration, technology development, or advanced manufacturing experience.

Responsibilities

Lead integration architecture, manage development programs, and coordinate cross-functional execution to enable quantum hardware manufacturability and scalability.

• Lead development of semiconductor integration architectures for quantum computing platforms.
• Define integration strategies across front-end devices, BEOL routing, photonic interfaces, advanced packaging, interconnects, and quantum-specific process modules.
• Develop and maintain technology roadmaps focused on scalability, manufacturability, and qualification.
• Define and execute integrated process flows, module interactions, process windows, and technology learning cycles.
• Use DOE, statistical analysis, and yield learning to optimize integration.
• Establish integration checkpoints, performance metrics, and technical success criteria.
• Evaluate tradeoffs among performance, manufacturability, reliability, yield, cost, and scalability.
• Collaborate with device engineering, process teams, manufacturing, reliability, modeling, design enablement, and packaging organizations.
• Analyze electrical, physical, reliability, and metrology data; lead root-cause investigations and corrective actions.
• Mentor junior engineers and provide technical guidance; contribute to invention disclosures, publications, and patents.
• Perform duties in compliance with Environmental, Health, Safety & Security requirements.

Requirements
