Original job description

Overview

At Microsoft Quantum, we aim to empower science and scientists to solve the world's biggest problems by realizing advanced computing platforms at the intersection of high-performance computing, artificial intelligence (AI), and quantum information technology. For more information about our team, visit https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/quantum. We are seeking a Quantum Engineer – System Characterization, who have experience up to the Senior level, to characterize and validate cryogenic control hardware used in our quantum computing systems. This role focuses on system-level performance characterization, bridging cryogenic electronics and quantum device measurements. Working within the cryogenic complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (cryo-CMOS) team, you will have the opportunity to make a significant impact on a revolutionary technology. We are looking for an experimentalist with substantial experience measuring semiconductor qubit and/or quantum dot devices with a strong passion for interdisciplinary collaboration. At Microsoft, our mission - to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more - guides how we partner with customers to deliver trusted, impactful solutions. With a growth mindset culture, we innovate responsibly and measure success by shared progress - people, teams, and customers. Join us to do meaningful work that changes the world and helps shape what’s next for everyone.

Responsibilities

Characterize the performance of integrated cryogenic ASIC-based control systems interfacing with quantum devices.
Design, execute, and analyze measurement campaigns to evaluate cryogenic control hardware and system behavior.
Develop and refine measurement techniques to assess device-level and system-level performance.
Collaborate closely with multidisciplinary partners - including ASIC designers, electrical engineers, qubit measurement engineers, and theorists - to inform and optimize system design.
Analyze, document, and communicate characterization results, limitations, and findings to hardware and system development teams.
Verify that the integrated cryogenic control system meets defined performance requirements and specifications.
Other
Embody our Culture and Values

Qualifications

Required/Minimum Qualifications

Master's Degree in Physics, Engineering, or related field.
OR Bachelor's Degree in Physics, Engineering, or related field AND 2+ years experience in industry or in a research and development environment
OR equivalent experience.

Other Requirements:

Ability to meet Microsoft, customer and/or government security screening requirements are required for this role. These requirements include, but are not limited to the following specialized security screenings:

Microsoft Cloud Background Check: This position will be required to pass the Microsoft Cloud Background Check upon hire/transfer and every two years thereafter.
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 or Export Administration Regulations, 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.

Additional/Preferred Qualifications

Doctorate in Physics, Engineering, or related field AND 3+ years experience in industry or in a research and development environment, could include completion of a post doctoral research position
OR Master's Degree in Physics, Engineering, or related field AND 6+ years experience in industry or in a research and development environment
OR Bachelor's Degree in Physics, Engineering, or related field AND 8+ years experience in industry or in a research and development environment
OR equivalent experience.
4+ years of experience measuring semiconductor qubit or quantum dot devices, and experience with quantum circuits.
Ability to work in an “AI-first” environment using modern AI tools to accelerate discovery through both hardware and software development.
Ability to design and build AI agents/copilots that assist with experiment setup, log triage, measurement report generation, protocol templating, and knowledge retrieval (e.g. instrument manuals, design docs).
Practical experience with low-noise electronic measurements (e.g., lock-in amplifiers, analog pre-amplifiers), cryogenic techniques (e.g., Helium-3 (He3) cryostats or dilution refrigerators), electrical transport characterization of semiconductors, dielectrics, and superconductors, and radio frequency (RF)/microwave measurements.
Experience with analog electronic circuit design.
Experience with data acquisition and programming in a high-level language (e.g., Python).
Demonstrated experience with technical report writing and documentation, and experience with cross-team collaboration and/or mentoring.
Ability to adapt and operate effectively in a rapidly changing research environment.
