Senior Quantum Hardware Engineer

Microsoft's mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more. At Microsoft Quantum, we aim to empower science and scientists to solve the world's biggest problems by realizing advanced computing platforms at the intersection of high-performance computing, artificial intelligence, and quantum information technology. 

We are looking for a diverse set of talented and focused people to accelerate the delivery of useful quantum computers. Microsoft has an internal program pursuing topological qubits for large-scale quantum computing. We are also working closely with a growing list of companies to advance their qubit modalities and bring them to market on the Microsoft Quantum accelerator platform. 

The quantum product acceleration team is seeking a Senior Quantum Hardware Engineer to understand, design, and develop quantum chips and related hardware on the quantum plane of a quantum computer. You will help accelerate progress and bridge the gap between the hardware engineers making and measuring qubits—such as topological, semiconductor, or superconducting qubits—with members of the architecture, software, and systems integration teams at Microsoft and with partner companies in the Azure Quantum accelerator platform. As a senior hardware engineer, you will be responsible for making dramatic improvements to the quantum plane devices and architecture of future quantum computers. You will work alongside talented hardware and software engineers---both within Microsoft and with our partners---in a start-up like environment that values speed and people with broad skillsets.
