Your future responsibilities As part of the DireQT project, we are developing cutting-edge solid-state quantum system-on-chip solutions. We are looking for a motivated analog circuit designer to drive the development of key building blocks like DACs, amplifiers, and photodetector readout circuits in advanced CMOS technologies towards innovative solutions for quantum applications.

As a Junior Scientist at SAL, your focus will lay on scientific work and methods, as well as developing strong R&D skills.

Join a dynamic, research-oriented team where your designs will help shape the future of quantum applications.

Your future tasks include:

• Research and develop innovative IC solutions for quantum sensors readout circuits
• Schematic and layout design of analogue circuits, such as DACs, switched capacitor amplifiers, current regulators and photodetector readout circuits, in CMOS technology (e.g. 28 nm process).
• Verification and lab measurements of analog circuits; operation of measurement equipment
• Involved in demonstrator development
• Contribution to SAL's high-level research with scientific output
• Participation in conferences, (co)-authoring scientific papers in high impact journals and contribution to SAL's scientific visability
• Support in project acquisition, funding proposals, and project management under guidance
• Active scientific networking to strengthen SAL's visibility and reputation

Your profile

• Master's degrees in Electrical Engineering
• Experience with schematic and layout circuit design tools
• Knowledge of analog design circuits such as ADC and DAC
• Strong knowledge of analog circuits like switched capacitor amplifiers, current regulators, photodetectors, readout circuits
• Autonomous, with self-initiative (research oriented), well organized and enjoying working in a dynamic and multicultural team
• Professional communication skills in English, command of German language is a plus
• Willingness to relocate to Villach, Austria
