Jobbeschreibung

Quantum Brilliance is the world leader in room temperature, miniaturised and ruggedised quantum technologies that can be deployed anywhere, and close to where you need it most. Central to our core offering is the integrated diamond quantum chip, which leverages the unique properties of NV centers in diamonds to be used for both quantum sensing and quantum computing applications, from data centres through to on-premises and edge applications such as autonomous vehicles, robotics, hospitals and aerospace.

Founded in 2019 by leading experts in diamond quantum science from the Australian National University, we are a full-stack quantum technology company. Headquartered in Sydney Australia, we have labs located in Australia (Canberra & Melbourne) and Germany (Stuttgart & Freiburg) and recently opened an office in Tokyo, Japan.

We are partnering with universities, cutting edge materials and semiconductor companies, and exploring real world applications with HPCs, research institutes as well as industrial companies such as in automotive, telecommunications, aerospace and healthcare.

The Mission

As the European Quantum Sensor Discovery Program Director, you will lead programs for the development of next-generation of diamond NV based Sensors across multiple technology domains, including defense, aerospace, space, transport including analogue/mixed-signal, RF, photonic ICs.

You will lead program development and delivery including inputs from QB’s multidisciplinary teams liaising with customers to align user requirements and aligned system-level specifications, explore innovative topologies, and translate product requirements into scalable solutions for diamond NV based quantum sensing products in different applications.

Key Responsibilities

• Engage with European sensing partners to identify opportunities for collaboration on technology development and product delivery.
• Work with the business leadership to define and develop aligned technical roadmaps and product strategy to deliver game changing solutions to the market for quantum sensing aligned with Quantum Brilliance corporate strategy.
• Lead the delivery of European sensing programs working with internal teams and external partners to drive design and de-risking and build a test of quantum diamond sensor devices including but not limited to:
• System-level design and integration of solutions for quantum sensing.
• Analogue, digital, RF, photonic, packaging, and firmware.
• Modelling, simulation, and performance trade-off analysis.
• Pulse control systems for quantum sensing.
• Oversee and where appropriate lead technical and design reviews, design documentation, and cross-functional alignment and engineering practices.
• Where appropriate act as the Product Design Authority (PDA).
• Oversee and contribute to the strategy for IP selection, re-use strategy, and external foundry/vendor/partnership engagement.
• Mentor junior engineers and staff, contribute to maintain and grow Quantum Brilliance’s culture of collaboration, innovation and technical excellence.

Required Qualifications

• Master's or Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering, Microelectronics, Physics, or related field.
• Extensive experience in system-level design and integration of complex systems.
• Leadership of multidisciplinary teams: RF design, mixed-signal design, digital SoC, MEMS, photonics, or integrated sensor systems.
• Experience in customer engagement and working with foundries, IP vendors, and/or external design partners.

Desirable Experience

• Experience in defense, aerospace and / or space industry.
• Strong understanding of semiconductor design flows, EDA tools, and simulation platforms (e.g., Cadence, Synopsys, Keysight).
• Familiarity with advanced semiconductor process technologies (e.g., FinFET, FD-SOI, GaN, SiGe, Silicon nitride PIC etc.).
• Previous involvement in tape-outs and full-chip productization.
• Knowledge of reliability, test strategy, and DFT/DFM considerations.

Other useful experience which would be highly regarded

• Background in quantum technologies (e.g., quantum sensing, quantum computing, or quantum control).
• Chartered Engineer status or eligibility to obtain.
• Defense clearance (EU/US/AU) or the eligibility to obtain.
