This role involves designing, analyzing, and validating broadband assemblies for quantum systems, focusing on signal integrity and electromagnetic effects.
Essential Duties:
We’re looking for someone to join a team committed to understanding and improving the operation of quantum-dot-based spin qubit systems by working at the forefront of advanced spin qubit measurements.
This research staff member will be contributing to the design, analysis and validation of complex broadband assemblies, with a focus on signal integrity (SI) and electromagnetic (EM) effects used to control highly complex Quantum Systems.
Work closely with other domain experts performing related functional analyses (e.g. packaging design and analysis, circuit design, thermal/mechanical analysis, etc.).
Required Skills:
Experience or familiarity with one the following scientific and modeling tools: CAD / simulation, HSPICE, HFSS, Q3D, SI-Wave, CST Studio, Sonnet, ADS, Sigrity, etc.
Solid understanding of core computer science fundamentals including data structures, algorithms, and computer architectures. (We use Python and GitLab)
Ability and desire to work in a collaborative, team-based environment that integrates computer science, data science, physics, and engineering.
Required Education:
BS + 2 years of experience, or MS in Electrical Engineering, Applied Physics, Physics, Computer Science or related field. Candidates with different experience levels will be considered for other positions.
Physical Requirements:
Must be able to climb ladders to use elevated test equipment.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene
Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.
Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech
- Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
- Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
- Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
- Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
- Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
- Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
