Scalable Cryogenics Engineer, Quantum AI

As a part of the Scalable Cryogenics team, you will be responsible for designing, developing, and commissioning cryogenic systems of ever-increasing complexity in support of the QAI team roadmap to commercially useful fault tolerant quantum computers. As a Cryogenics Engineer on the Scalable Hardware team, you will be involved in supporting and developing our next-generation cryogenic technologies, and will have a stake in their performance. You will work closely with multiple key vendors, partners, and collaborators for development and production, ensuring timeliness, performance and cost effectiveness.The full potential of quantum computing will be unlocked with a large-scale computer capable of complex, error-corrected computations. Google Quantum AI's mission is to build this computer and unlock solutions to classically intractable problems. Our roadmap is focused on advancing the capabilities of quantum computing and enabling meaningful applications.
