Job Overview A Boston-based quantum hardware company is building next‑generation processors and now wants a senior Microwave Engineer to partner closely with an interconnect fabrication team, owning the on‑chip and package‑level microwave architecture for a full stack quantum computing company. You would lead the design and EM simulation of microwave structures, interfaces, and packaging that coexist with dense interconnects, and translate microwave requirements into clear layout and process rules for the fab team. You’d also define filtering, routing, and impedance‑control strategies from room temperature to the cryostat, and work hands‑on with test engineers to correlate design choices with coherence and gate‑fidelity metrics.

If you like being the person who connects qubit physics, microwave engineering, and real‑world manufacturability—working day‑to‑day with process, packaging, and test colleagues in Boston—this could be a very high‑impact seat.
