Senior Design Engineer

About the role

Senior Design Engineer

Arctic Instruments is a deep tech spin-off from VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland. We make quantum-limited parametric amplifiers, a superconducting technology that addresses one of the biggest challenges in quantum computing: high-fidelity qubit readout. We are looking to further develop this cutting-edge technology and distribute it among quantum computer builders and researchers to enable them in the race towards quantum utility.

As a Senior Design Engineer, you work close to the heart of our product. That is, you design, model and invent superconducting circuits at or close-to the chip-level. If you are a postdoc, an expert already in the industry, or a soon-to-defend PhD student with a relevant background, please consider this role!

The ideal candidate:

• Has a PhD-level degree in physics, electrical engineering, math, or a related field.​
• Has five or more years of experience working on superconducting circuits.​
• Is theoretically skilled (but don’t be discouraged from applying if you are an experimentalist)
• Has experience in at least some form of numerical modeling (for example FEM or first-principles simulations)

In addition, experience with patenting is highly appreciated, but not required.

We have significant flexibility in accommodating different levels of seniority in this role, so please don’t take the above too literally. Let’s discuss and see if there’s a fit!

We offer:

• A dynamic work environment ​
• The opportunity to steer the products of a quickly developing company for many years to come, potentially affecting the whole field.
• A chance to participate in an employee stock option program ​
