Job Information

Amazon Software Engineer, Electronic Design Automation, Center for Quantum Computing in Pasadena, California

Description

The Amazon Web Services (AWS) Center for Quantum Computing (CQC) is a multi-disciplinary team of scientists, engineers, and technicians, on a mission to develop a fault-tolerant quantum computer.

We are looking for a Software Engineer to join our growing software team. The position is on-site at our lab, located on the Caltech campus in Pasadena, CA. You will work closely with research scientists in our fabrication facility and theoretical physicists to build platforms, pipelines and tools which automate and accelerate the hardware development efforts at CQC and enable more rapid, scalable, and repeatable successes within these efforts.

Key job responsibilities

  • Build Electronic Design Automation and Design Verification tools for quantum circuit design and simulation

  • Build infrastructure to support large scale Electromagnetic simulations

  • Design database schemas storing compact representations of chip designs

  • Build a verification pipeline ensuring fabricated chips faithfully reflect the intended design

  • Identify bottlenecks, pain points, integration issues, and develop designs and improvements to the design team's workflows

We are looking for candidates with strong engineering principles, resourcefulness, and a bias for action, superior problem-solving, and excellent communication skills. Candidates should also possess a genuine curiosity and readiness to grasp the domain knowledge of our research scientists. Working effectively within a team environment is essential. As a software engineer embedded in a research organization, you will have the opportunity to work on new ideas and stay abreast of the field of experimental quantum computation.

A day in the life

The lifetime of your projects will likely begin with a lot of discussion and negotiation with our scientists and engineers to translate their software and hardware feature requests into design proposals that demonstrate sensible trade-offs between complexity and delivery. Once a design proposal has been accepted, you will implement it in a logical and maintainable manner. You will also be encouraged to take ownership over the stability and quality of the software and hardware stack by identifying, proposing, and implementing features that will accelerate our realization of quantum computing technologies.

About the team

You will be joining the Device Lifecycle Software team within the AWS Center of Quantum Computing. Our team is comprised of software engineers who are building scalable software that enables quantum computing technologies.

We are open to hiring candidates to work out of one of the following locations:
