About the job<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n

About The Role And Team <\/strong>Quantum Motion is a fast-growing quantum computing start-up based in London. We are developing quantum processors based on industrial-grade silicon chips, with the potential to radically transform computing power in areas such as materials modelling, medicine, artificial intelligence and more. We have recently moved into a new office in Islington with state of the art cryogenic facilities and have an outstanding interdisciplinary team spanning quantum physics to IC design.<\/p>\n

Since 2021 our team has been listed every year in the \u201cTop 100 Startups worth watching\u201d in the EE Times<\/a>, and our technology breakthroughs have been featured in The Telegraph<\/a>, BBC<\/a> and the New Statesman<\/a>. Our founders are internationally renowned researchers from UCL and Oxford University who have pioneered the development of qubits and quantum computing architectures. Our chairman is the co-founder of Cadence and Synopsys, the two leading companies in the area of Electronic Design Automation. We\u2019re backed by a team of top-tier investors including Bosch Ventures<\/a>, Porsche SE, Sony Innovation Fund, Oxford Sciences Innovations, INKEF Capital<\/a> and Octopus Ventures<\/a>, and we have so far raised over \u00a362 million in equity and grant funding.<\/p>\n

We bring together the brightest quantum engineers, integrated circuit (IC) engineers, quantum computing theoreticians and software engineers to create a unique, world-leading team, working together closely to maximise our combined expertise. Our collaborative and interdisciplinary culture is an ideal fit for anyone who thrives in a cutting-edge research and development environment focused on tackling big challenges and contributing to the development of scalable quantum computers based on silicon technology.<\/p>\n

Our team of 100+ is based in Oxford and London, with a centre of mass in our Islington lab.<\/p>\n

Our Team <\/strong>The IC Team is responsible for the design and test of the integrated circuits which operate at deep-cryogenic temperatures and interact with the qubits. This role is a unique chance to work at the bleeding edge of technology development, developing new innovative circuits to tackle the engineering challenge of implementing a large scale quantum computer in silicon. You will be a key part of a multidisciplinary team, and will be involved in all the aspects of IC design cycle from initial concept to volume production.<\/p>\n

This is a rare and exciting opportunity to be an early employee at a start-up shaping the future of quantum computing, and in particular to form a new team within the company. There are vast opportunities for professional growth and to make an impact within the company.<\/p>\n

As a Senior IC Layout Engineer, the position will suit a multidisciplinary profile with expertise in Analog IC Layout primarily and CAD management secondarily. No quantum experience required, but curiosity and a strong desire to learn and input into a brand-new technology area are critical.<\/p>\n
