Quantum R&D Engineer - TWPA Design

The role

You will act as a domain expert on the physics and architecture of Josephson Travelling Wave Parametric Amplifiers. You will translate product specifications into TWPA architectures and focus on microwave engineering and on-chip component integration.

What you will do

• Translate product specifications and features into TWPA layouts and circuit designs through simulations.
• Drive the miniaturisation of TWPA architectures and design and integrate critical peripheral components on-chip.
• Research directions including extending bandwidth, improving noise performance, and integration of peripheral functions.
• Present findings and technical proposals to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Stay informed of relevant literature and state-of-the-art techniques in parametric amplification.

Required qualifications

• PhD or equivalent industry experience in quantum-limited amplification, parametric amplifiers (e.g. TWPAs, JPAs), or closely related superconducting microwave circuits.
• Deep expertise in non-linear metamaterials, Josephson circuits, and mixing processes.
• More than 3 years of hands-on experience with advanced microwave design and simulation (e.g., CST, HFSS).
• Proven track record of matching simulations to cryogenic measurement data.
• Track record of independent, creative problem-solving in a research and development setting.
• Excellent communication skills.

Benefits

• Competitive salary
• 8% holiday allowance
• Pension plan that includes partner and dependent coverage
• Hybrid setup
• Open vacation policy
• L&D budget

Before you apply

• Candidates may be required to undergo pre-employment screening.
