Mechanical Engineer, Cryogenic Hardware
Amazon, San Francisco, California, United States, 94199
Job ID: 3155626 | Amazon Development Center U.S., Inc.
The Amazon Web Services (AWS) Center for Quantum Computing in Pasadena, CA, is looking to hire a Research Scientist specializing in hardware design for cryogenic environments. The candidate should have expertise in 3D CAD (SolidWorks), thermal and structural FEA (Ansys/COMSOL), hardware design for cryogenic applications, design for manufacturing, and mechanical engineering principles. The candidate must have demonstrated driving designs through full product development cycles (requirements, conceptual design, detailed design, manufacturing, integration, and testing). Candidates must have a strong background in both cryogenic mechanical engineering theory and implementation. Working effectively within a cross‑functional team environment is critical.
Key Job Responsibilities
High density novel packaging solutions for quantum processor units.
Cryogenic mechanical design for novel cryogenic signal conditioning sub‑assemblies.
Cryogenic mechanical design for signal delivery systems.
Simulation driven designs (shielding, filtering, etc.) to reduce sources of EMI within the qubit environment.
Own end‑to‑end product development through requirements, design reports, design reviews, assembly/testing documentation, and final delivery.
A Day in the Life
Participate in requirements, design, and test reviews and communicate with internal stakeholders.
Work cross‑functionally to help drive decisions using your unique technical background and skill set.
Refine and define standards and processes for operational excellence.
Work in a high‑paced, startup‑like environment where you are provided the resources to innovate quickly.
Basic Qualifications
PhD, or Master's degree and 4+ years of quantitative field research experience.
Experience investigating the feasibility of applying scientific principles and concepts to business problems and products.
Experience analyzing both experimental and observational data sets.
Preferred Qualifications
Knowledge of R, MATLAB, Python or similar scripting language.
Experience with agile development.
Experience building web based dashboards using common frameworks.
Export Control Requirement Due to applicable export control laws and regulations, candidates must be either a U.S. citizen or national, U.S. permanent resident (i.e., current Green Card holder), or lawfully admitted into the U.S. as a refugee or granted asylum, or be able to obtain a U.S. export license. If you are unsure if you meet these requirements, please apply and Amazon will review your application for eligibility.
