Original job description

Description

The Amazon Center for Quantum Computing (CQC) team is looking for a passionate, talented, and inventive Research Engineer specializing in hardware design for cryogenic environments. The ideal candidate should have expertise in 3D CAD (SolidWorks), thermal and structural FEA (Ansys/COMSOL), hardware design for cryogenic applications, design for manufacturing, and mechanical engineering principles. The candidate must have demonstrated experience driving designs through full product development cycles (requirements, conceptual design, detailed design, manufacturing, integration, and testing). Candidates must also have a strong background in both cryogenic mechanical engineering theory and implementation. Working effectively within a cross-functional team environment is critical.

Key job responsibilities

The CQC collaborates across teams and projects to offer state-of-the-art, cost-effective solutions for scaling the signal delivery to quantum processor systems at cryogenic temperatures. Equally important is the ability to scale the thermal performance and improve EMI mitigation of the cryogenic environment. You will work on the following:

High density novel packaging solutions for quantum processor units
Cryogenic mechanical design for novel cryogenic signal conditioning sub-assemblies
Cryogenic mechanical design for signal delivery systems
Simulation-driven designs (shielding, filtering, etc.) to reduce sources of EMI within the qubit environment.
Own end-to-end product development through requirements, design reports, design reviews, assembly/testing documentation, and final delivery

A day in the life

As you design and implement cryogenic hardware solutions, from requirements definition to deployment, you will also:

Participate in requirements, design, and test reviews and communicate with internal stakeholders
Work cross-functionally to help drive decisions using your unique technical background and skill set
Refine and define standards and processes for operational excellence
Work in a high-paced, startup-like environment where you are provided the resources to innovate quickly

About the team

The Amazon Center for Quantum Computing (CQC) is a multi-disciplinary team of scientists, engineers, and technicians, on a mission to develop a fault-tolerant quantum computer.

Inclusive Team Culture

Here at Amazon, it’s in our nature to learn and be curious. Our employee-led affinity groups foster a culture of inclusion that empower us to be proud of our differences. Ongoing events and learning experiences, including our Conversations on Race and Ethnicity (CORE) and AmazeCon conferences, inspire us to never stop embracing our uniqueness.

Diverse Experiences

Amazon values diverse experiences. Even if you do not meet all of the preferred qualifications and skills listed in the job description, we encourage candidates to apply. If your career is just starting, hasn’t followed a traditional path, or includes alternative experiences, don’t let it stop you from applying.

Mentorship & Career Growth

We’re continuously raising our performance bar as we strive to become Earth’s Best Employer. That’s why you’ll find endless knowledge-sharing, mentorship and other career-advancing resources here to help you develop into a better-rounded professional.

Work/Life Balance

We value work-life harmony. Achieving success at work should never come at the expense of sacrifices at home, which is why we strive for flexibility as part of our working culture. When we feel supported in the workplace and at home, there’s nothing we can’t achieve in the cloud.

Export Control Requirement

Due to applicable export control laws and regulations, candidates must be either a U.S. citizen or national, U.S. permanent resident (i.e., current Green Card holder), or lawfully admitted into the U.S. as a refugee or granted asylum, or be able to obtain a US export license. If you are unsure if you meet these requirements, please apply and Amazon will review your application for eligibility.

Basic Qualifications

Bachelor's degree or above in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, material science, physics or equivalent
Bachelor's degree with 6+ years of relevant experience, Master’s degree with 5+ years relevant experience, or PhD with 2+ years relevant experience.
Experience with cryogenic mechanical design and product development lifecycle
Knowledge with design for manufacturing
Expertise with Finite Element Analysis (Thermal, Mechanical, EM) and 3D CAD (SolidWorks)

Preferred Qualifications

PhD in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, material science, physics or related field
Experience with quantum hardware development and quantum processor packaging
Knowledge of RF/Microwave principles
Experience with PCB design and manufacturing
