Staff System Architect -SNSPD Systems at IonQ, Geneva, Switzerland. A lead-level full time position in the Quantum Platform - Network & Security team, listed under hardware engineering.
We are looking for a Staff System Architect to be fully dedicated to the SNSPD product line, with a strong focus on leading the technical architecture and roadmap for our next-generation rack-mountable SNSPD (Superconducting Nanowire Single-Photon Detector) platform. This role is critical to defining and guiding the technical evolution of our cutting-edge cryogenic photon detection systems, ensuring architectural coherence across hardware, software, and integration domains while supporting our product vision and market requirements.
We are looking for a proven architect of complex, multi-domain instruments, whether from space systems, astronomical instrumentation, scientific or medical imaging, electron or advanced optical microscopy, semiconductor equipment, or comparable fields who can bring that system-level rigour to our platform.
What you'll be doing
In this role, you will be an integral part of the development process for IDQ's SNSPD platform, with applications across quantum computing, networking, and sensing. You will be at the intersection of quantum photonics, cryogenic systems engineering and embedded systems to create scalable, maintainable architectures for autonomous 24/7 detector operations.
You will take ownership of the end-to-end system architecture of the SNSPD platform, ensuring alignment with a shared long-term product vision while translating product requirements into clear system-level designs and specifications. This includes defining system structure, interfaces, and key architectural decisions, as well as driving critical trade-offs across performance, cost, scalability, and integration. You will also align engineering execution with the architectural vision, guiding system integration and resolving complex cross-domain design challenges.
