The posting

At OQC, we aren’t just theorising about the future; we’re building it. Born from a philosophy of bold innovation, we’ve successfully transitioned quantum computing from an academic dream into a commercial reality. The most exciting thing is that we’re just getting started.

As a Staff Electronic Design Engineer, you will define the electronic architectures that power scalable quantum computing systems. You'll solve complex system-level challenges spanning high-speed electronics, synchronisation, integration, and manufacturability, helping to deliver the next generation of quantum control hardware.

The Role

As a senior technical leader within our Control Hardware team, you'll drive the architecture, design, and delivery of highly integrated electronic systems that enable high-performance qubit control, deterministic synchronisation, and data acquisition across distributed quantum computing platforms. You'll work closely with multidisciplinary engineering teams, influence long-term hardware strategy, and provide technical leadership across the organisation.

What You'll Be Working On

  • Architecting scalable, high-performance electronic systems for quantum control platforms, balancing performance, reliability, manufacturability, and long-term scalability.
  • Leading the design and development of complex hardware systems, including schematic capture, component selection, and review of high-density multilayer PCB designs.
  • Driving technical decision-making across the hardware development lifecycle, ensuring robust and practical engineering solutions.
  • Collaborating with FPGA, embedded software, mechanical, cryogenic, systems, and deployment teams to define interfaces and integration strategies across the control hardware stack.
  • Defining validation strategies, acceptance criteria, and technical specifications while managing engagement with external suppliers and manufacturing partners.
  • Leading hardware integration, validation, debugging, and root-cause analysis activities to ensure reliable product delivery.
  • Mentoring engineers, leading technical reviews, and contributing to the evolution of OQC's hardware architecture, engineering standards, and development methodologies.

What We're Looking For

  • Significant experience developing complex high-speed electronic systems.
  • Experience working across full hardware product development lifecycles.
  • Proven track record collaborating with cross-functional engineering teams on integrated systems.
  • Experience with hardware validation, integration, debugging, and system-level problem solving.
  • Experience developing scalable or distributed hardware platforms.
  • Experience providing technical leadership, conducting technical reviews, and mentoring engineers.
  • Electronic systems architecture and design.
  • High-speed digital design.
  • FPGA hardware integration.
  • Deterministic synchronisation systems.
  • Signal integrity and power integrity analysis.
  • EMI/EMC compliance and regulatory considerations.
  • Hardware and system integration.
  • Verification and validation planning.
  • Technical leadership and engineering decision-making.
  • Strong communication, judgement, and problem-solving skills.
  • Degree in Electronic Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Physics, or a related discipline, or equivalent practical experience.

The 'Nice-to-Haves'

  • Experience with RF or microwave electronic systems.
  • Experience working with FPGA-based or multi-board hardware platforms.
  • Background in quantum computing, telecommunications, aerospace, defence, radar, or high-performance computing environments.
  • Experience working with outsourced hardware development teams or manufacturing partners.
  • Knowledge of high-speed networking architectures.
  • Experience driving engineering process improvements and development methodology enhancements.
  • Postgraduate qualification in Electronics, RF Systems, Embedded Systems, Physics, or a related field.
  • Specialist training or certifications in high-speed electronic systems, FPGA platforms, signal integrity, or EMC design practices.

Why Join OQC

You will join a world-class team at the forefront of the next computational era. We offer a culture of bold innovation, the chance to work with unique lab infrastructure, and the opportunity to see your work redefine the limits of computation.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
