Senior System Electronics Integration Engineer

Job Title

Senior System Electronics Integration Engineer

Role Summary

The Senior System Electronics Integration Engineer is responsible for integrating, validating, and troubleshooting electronic subsystems within the Electronic Distribution Network (EDN) so that multiple hardware, firmware, and software components operate together to meet system performance requirements.

This role sits in the System Design organization and coordinates with Electronics Design, Packaging, Validation, System Commissioning, System Architecture, and software teams to deliver system-level hardware integration for quantum computing platforms.

Experience Level

Senior — typically 3+ years of relevant system electronics integration experience.

Responsibilities

Primary responsibilities focus on system-level integration, test, and cross-functional coordination to ensure reliable operation of complex electronic subsystems.

• Define and manage system interfaces: power distribution, timing distribution, cabling, and connectivity between electronic subsystems and components.
• Design and document EDN rack/vacuum/cryogenic layouts and connectivity.
• Develop and execute system-level integration and validation test plans covering hardware, firmware, and software interactions.
• Troubleshoot, debug, and validate complex system behaviors and interactions across multiple subsystems.
• Coordinate cross-functionally to meet technical requirements and schedules with system and design teams.
• Ensure compliance with system requirements, safety standards, and design specifications.
• Create and maintain interface control documents, schematics, design specifications, and contribute to system BOMs.

Requirements

Must-have qualifications and core skills required to perform the role.

• Minimum 3+ years of experience in system electronics integration.
• Experience with clock/timing distribution, power distribution, and grounding schemes.
• Experience with firmware validation and software control of hardware systems.
• Proficiency with software controls in Python.
• Strong debugging and problem-solving skills in complex electronic systems.
• Strong organizational and communication skills; ability to multitask and work independently with limited direction.

Nice-to-have / preferred experience.

• Experience with active photonic integrated circuits (PICs), optical transceivers, or RF products.
• Experience with high-speed signal integrity or power electronics.
• Knowledge of EMI/EMC considerations and mitigation techniques.
• Experience with vacuum and cryogenic systems.

Education Requirements

BS, M.S., or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, or a related technical field.
