Lead Quantum Control Systems Architect

Xanadu; Toronto; In loco; CAD 140.000 - 230.000; Tempo pieno

Descrizione del lavoro

Xanadu in Toronto is building fault-tolerant quantum computers and seeks a senior architect to own the central control system. You will define interfaces across digital control, FPGA firmware, electronics, ASICs, embedded software, and optical hardware, ensuring coherent evolution of the platform.

You will drive system-wide tradeoffs with quantified budgets for noise, latency and bandwidth, mentor FPGA/electronics teams, and work with external partners to accelerate progress in a collaborative,

Competenze

• Experience with control of complex physical systems including feedback loops and budgeting.
• Track record architecting a system used by multiple teams with interfaces and requirements documents.
• Excellent written and verbal communication across teams and partners.

Mansioni

• Own the architecture of the central control system for the next generations of our fault tolerant quantum computers: real-time feedback and locking, feedforward and switching, initialization and calibration, timing and data flow.
• Define and document interfaces between digital control, FPGA firmware, analog/mixed-signal electronics and ASICs, embedded software and the optical hardware, and keep them consistent as the design evolves.
• Make system-wide tradeoffs and get them adopted: decide what is easy, what is hard, and what will hurt later, backed by quantified budgets on noise, latency, bandwidth and
• Leverage our collaboration with external partners and our participation in major programs to accelerate control system progress.
• Identify hidden dependencies and technical risks where different systems interact, before such issues become expensive.
• Review and guide the work of the FPGA, electronics and embedded teams against the architecture, and mentor engineers across those teams.
