Senior FPGA Team Leader

Job description

 
Quantum Source is building a fault-tolerant, compound photon-atom quantum computer. We are a multidisciplinary team combining quantum physics, optics, electronics, FPGA, firmware, and software.
We are looking for a Senior FPGA Team Leader to lead our FPGA and electronics development. This is a hands-on leadership role covering FPGA architecture and implementation, PCB development, system integration, and laboratory debugging.
The role owns delivery from system requirements through design, manufacturing, bring-up, validation, and integration into the quantum computing platform.

Job requirements

• B.Sc. or M.Sc. in Electrical      Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.

• 7+ years of hands-on FPGA      development experience across complex multidisciplinary systems.

• At least 2 years of experience as      an FPGA team leader or technical lead, including mentoring and reviewing      the work of other engineers.

• Strong command of SystemVerilog,Verilog, or VHDL and the complete FPGA development flow.

• Proven experience with FPGA  architecture, timing constraints and closure, clock-domain crossing, reset      design, resource optimization, and third-party IP integration.

• Strong simulation, verification,  and laboratory debugging skills using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and  embedded debug tools.

• System-level thinking and the   ability to convert multidisciplinary requirements into technical decisions  and executable work plans.

• Strong leadership, communication,  and organizational skills, combined with a hands-on working style.

Advantages
Experience in board design including 

• Experience with Xilinx devices  and the Vivado toolchain, including Zynq or Versal platforms.

• Experience developing deterministic, low-latency, or high-rate real-time control systems.

• Experience integrating high-speed  ADCs, DACs, RF electronics, precision clocking, or synchronized   distributed hardware.

• Embedded C or C++ and embedded Linux experience.

• Experience with electro-optical  systems, photonics, scientific instrumentation, or quantum systems.

• Experience taking FPGA and  electronics systems from prototype through productization and  manufacturing.
