Job description

About Pasqaldesigns and develops Quantum Processing Units and dedicated software tools. These innovative processors address applications which are out of the reach of the most powerful existing supercomputers, encompassing real-world challenges as well as fundamental science. As they are very low energy intensive, they will significantly contribute to reduce the carbon footprint of the computing industry.Pasqal’s ambition is building and developing Quantum Processing Units (QPU) enabling highly performant computation using neutral atoms manipulated with lasers. On the hardware level, the complexity of the setup makes this journey unique and interesting. In the system performance team, we measure and optimize the performances of the QPU. We are responsible for the implementation and validation of new features and to push the system at its higher level of performances.Job descriptionAs a System Performance Engineer, your main responsibilities will be:

• Contribute to QPU wide projects
• Analyze performances (by developing simple mathematical and physics models and simulations) on current design and identify main limitations
• Propose new design or new techniques (hardware/software)
• Propose and perform documented system and sub-system tests plans to validate performance increase or new feature
• Contribute to maintaining dev QPUs in operation
• Propose new ideas leading to industrial innovation
• Collaborate closely with other teams in the hardware department
• Support the Manufacturing & Support team
• Communicate scientific results within and outside the team
• Supervise junior engineers and master students

To be successful in this role, you will have the following:Requirements:
