Summary
A quantum technology company is seeking an Electronic Engineer to develop advanced photonic quantum hardware systems. This hands-on role covers analogue and mixed-signal circuit design, PCB development, laboratory validation, and system integration, working alongside physicists, optical engineers, and software developers to build next-generation computing platforms.
Responsibilities
- Design and develop analogue and mixed-signal electronics for precision photonic hardware, including signal conditioning, low-noise amplification, DAC interfaces, and opto-electronic driver circuits.
- Own PCB development from schematic capture and simulation through layout, design reviews, prototyping, testing, and iteration.
- Bring up and characterise new hardware using laboratory equipment including oscilloscopes, signal generators, spectrum analysers, and other instrumentation.
- Debug electronic systems methodically, identifying root causes and implementing design improvements.
- Collaborate with software engineers to define hardware interfaces and support system-level integration.
- Work closely with multidisciplinary teams across physics, optics, and engineering to translate technical requirements into practical hardware solutions.
- Support EMC testing, compliance activities, and progression towards product-ready hardware.
- Produce clear technical documentation including schematics, specifications, design reviews, and test reports.
