About Xanadu:
Xanadu’s mission is to build quantum computers that are useful and available to people everywhere.
At Xanadu, we are learners, innovators, researchers, collaborators and problem solvers. We are creating something that has never been built before. What we are doing is extremely hard, the classic moon shot. Few people in their life will be able to be a part of something like this, where if we are successful, the technologies we develop will solve some of the world’s most challenging problems, and literally change the world. And that is something to be excited about!
Your role and responsibilities:
As a Senior Systems Engineer, you will work in close collaboration with the broad engineering team to:
- Translate high-level conceptual designs and operational goals into clear, measurable, and verifiable engineering requirements for each subsystem. Flow down requirements through appropriate system decomposition.
- Define and implement processes for documenting, tracking, and managing changes to these requirements throughout the product lifecycle.
- Establish best practices for documenting and maintaining the system architecture and its configuration. Identify tools needed to streamline company processes.
- Develop standardized methods to document interfaces across the elements of the system.
- Coach and train the broader team to the methods and tools detailed above.
Basic qualifications and experience:
- BSc in Engineering (Systems, Mechanical, Electrical, Materials, or a related field).
- 5+ years of experience in systems engineering.
- Demonstrated expertise in documenting requirements, architecture and interfaces of complex systems involving hardware, firmware and software.
- Working knowledge of industry standard tools and methods.
- Demonstrated ability to work with multi-domain teams.
Preferred qualifications and experience:
● Experience with quantum systems.
- Experience with modern requirements management software.
- Experience with model-based systems engineering.
- Ability to work in fast-paced R&D organization and adapt methods to the needs of the business
