Principal Signal Integrity Simulation Engineer

## About the role Define and lead the end-to-end signal integrity simulation strategy for next-generation systems, spanning room-temperature electronics, cryogenic infrastructure, Cryo-CMOS subsystems, packaging, and quantum hardware. Develop and maintain system-level models that predict signal fidelity, crosstalk, timing, noise, attenuation, and bandwidth limitations across the quantum control and readout stack. Drive architecture trade studies and design decisions through simulation-based analysis, helping teams identify risks and optimize performance before hardware implementation. Establish simulation methodologies, modeling standards, and validation practices using electromagnetic, circuit, behavioral, and system-level simulation tools. Partner closely with Cryo-CMOS, packaging, readout, and qubit design teams to define interfaces and performance requirements for future quantum platforms. Document designs, results, and methodologies to enable reproducibility, knowledge sharing, and downstream integration. ## Requirements Doctorate in Electrical Engineering, Physics, or related field AND 3+ years technical engineering experience. OR Master's Degree in Electrical Engineering, Physics, or related field AND 6+ years technical engineering experience OR Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering, Physics, or related field AND 8+ years technical engineering experience. These requirements include, but are not limited to the following specialized security screenings: Citizenship & Citizenship Verification: This role will require access to information that is controlled for export under export control regulations, potentially under the U.S. International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) or Export Administration Regulations (EAR), the EU Dual Use Regulation, and/or other export control regulations. As a condition of employment, the successful candidate will be required to provide either proof of their country of citizenship or proof of their U.S. permanent residency or other protected status (e.g., under 8 U.S.C. § 1324b(a)(3)) for assessment of eligibility to access the export-controlled information. To meet this legal requirement, and as a condition of employment, the successful candidate's citizenship will be verified with a valid passport. Lawful permanent residents, refugees, and asylees may verify status using other documents, where applicable. ## Nice to have Doctorate in Physics, Engineering, or related field AND 5+ years experience in industry or in a research and development environment OR Master's Degree in Physics, Engineering, or related field AND 8+ years experience in industry or in a research and development environment OR Bachelor's Degree in Physics, Engineering, or related field AND 12+ years experience in industry or in a research and development environment OR equivalent experience. ## What we offer Extensive experience in signal integrity, RF engineering, electromagnetic simulation, or system-level modeling.
