Professional context

In the Platform Architecture team of the HW department we are responsible for building and developing the Hardware platform vision of the Quantum Process Unit systems (with the help of all the other R&D Hardware teams).

The concept of the platform is to be understood as a complete hardware system standard to be used both for QPU as products and for internal QPUs dedicated to R&D projects. The platform design consists mainly in a clear modular functional and technical decomposition. QPU platforms are anticipated to evolve through generations (major design upgrades) and versions (minor design upgrades).

Main responsibilities:

• Manage platform evolution: Collect analyze and prioritize needs from stakeholders (internal customers product department R&D teams project managers etc.).

• Manage preliminary studies for new design / features / improved performance with R&D teams to launch new development projects.

• Define functional and technical architecture choices in collaboration with R&D teams.

  • Evaluate architectures in terms of maturity and requirement compliance.

  • Write specifications and ensure traceability with the needs

• Participate in design review meetings and validate design choice with respect to high-level system requirements.

• Manage platform configuration evolution during integration phase for each platform.

• Participate in system and subsystem validation strategies.

• Validate QPU configuration before launching production.

Additional missions:

• You could act as a project manager for specific internal architecture projects.

• You could be involved in calls for tenders or request for proposals.

• You could traval to customer sites.
