Job Technologien
Deine Rolle im Team
- At planqc, we are building scalable quantum computers based on neutral atoms, one of the most promising architectures for achieving real-world quantum advantage.
- As an FPGA Engineer, you will be part of our Electrical Engineering team, developing high-performance control systems at the core of our quantum computing platform.
- Your work will focus on designing and implementing real-time FPGA-based systems that enable precise control and readout of individual atoms with nanosecond accuracy.
- Working closely with quantum hardware and software teams, you will translate complex experimental requirements into robust, scalable firmware solutions.
- Your contributions will be critical in advancing system performance, stability, and scalability, enabling the next generation of quantum algorithms and applications.
- This role is ideal for engineers who enjoy working at the intersection of hardware, firmware, and cutting-edge physics.
- Design, implement, and optimize FPGA-based control and data acquisition systems for quantum computing applications.
- Develop synthesizable modules in SystemVerilog, Verilog, or VHDL for real-time signal generation and acquisition.
- Implement high-speed interfaces for ADC/DAC systems and ensure reliable data throughput.
- Integrate high-performance vision interfaces (e.g. CameraLink, CoaXpress, HDMI/DisplayPort).
- Develop and maintain testbenches and simulation environments (e.g. SystemVerilog, cocotb, Python).
- Co-design firmware and software interfaces for SoC architectures (PS-PL communication).
- Design robust clocking, synchronization, and trigger architectures across multiple boards.
- Collaborate closely with physicists, hardware engineers, and software teams to ensure seamless system integration.
- Contribute to system architecture decisions and continuous performance improvements.
