About the role
- We are looking for a digital-hardware system-designer to join our System-Architecture team.
Responsibilities
- Devise and implement low-latency algorithms and methods to solve various time-critical tasks that take place in the data-plane of an optical quantum computer.
- Work with other digital-design experts to integrate algorithms into FPGAs.
- Collaborate closely with physicists and digital designers to arbitrate design choices and optimize designs to meet algorithmic performance while matching latency, throughput and footprint constraints.
- Implement cycle-accurate Python models to be integrated in discrete-time-event simulations.
- Implement SystemVerilog implementations matching Python models.
Requirements
- Bachelor's or master's degree in Electrical or Computer Engineering or related discipline.
- Team player with an ability to work effectively across departments and time-zones.
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to engage a variety of audiences.
- Pro-active with the ability to work independently with limited direction, in a fast-moving start-up environment nice-to-have:
- Distributed system experience: involving event correlation from multiple sources, under real-time constraints.
- 5+ years of relevant work in digital design.
- Knowledge of SystemVerilog (or VHDL) for design and simulation.
- Strong critical thinking skills to devise creative and analytical approaches to solving novel, loosely-defined complex problems.
- Experienced Python programmer who strives to write clear code in the context of a small team of contributors.
Nice to have
- Experience with High Level Synthesis tools (e.g. Xilinx Vitis).
- Experience with Python for verification (Cocotb).
- Knowledge of photonics and linear optics is a plus.
- Experience working with FPGAs (Xilinx preferred) and associated tooling.
