Analog RF & IC Design

What Awaits You Every Day At Quobly Quobly aims to have a strong impact on society by providing cost-competitive universal quantum processors to solve currently intractable problems.

Founded in 2022, Quobly is a fast-growing start-up located in Grenoble’s vibrant and multidisciplinary ecosystem. The company relies on the CNRS Neel Institute and CEA-Leti and benefits from the dynamic of strong links between research and industry.

We are looking for a Analog RF & IC Design. As Analog RF & IC Design, you will be responsible for developing the architecture, design, and implementation of high-frequency circuits.

Technical Challenges

• You will design the RF Block (High Frequency Block: LNA, PA, Mixers and VCO/PLL
• You will design matching networks (Impedance matching)
• You will use Electromagnetic Simulation (2.5d/3DEM simulators) to model the effects of inductors, capacitors, and interconnects at high frequencies.
• You will supervise or perform the layout to manage parasitic capacitance, inductance, and substrate coupling.
• You will manage the Signal Integrity to preserve qubit coherence
• You will design the RF Circuit, active and passive components

Collaboration

• Collaborate with talented people in a culture of transparency and autonomy.
• As part of the product team, you’ll work closely with the entire R&D team

You Are Special Because

• You hold Master’s degree or PhD (highly preferred) in RF/Microwave Engineering or Electromagnetics.
• You have significant experience in high-frequency RF design
• You ‘re proficient in the following tools: Keysight ADS or Cadence SpectreRF, EM Solvers (HFSS, Momentum, EMX).
• You have a Analytical mindset, scientific rigor and the ability to work in a multidisciplinary team (interacting with physicists, software engineers, and material scientists).

If you miss some skills, just think of applying anyway. We are convinced that your experience together with willingness and sense of adventure can make the difference.
