About us
Logiqal is on a mission to build the first scaled quantum computer, deploying millions of qubits to tackle the world’s most important problems. Our thesis is that you have to build a full scale machine to learn what the actual hard parts are, just like you have to build a full scale rocket before the first launch. We’re looking for visionary scientists and engineers to join our team, to move fast and blow stuff up.
Based in Princeton, NJ our founding physics team has decades of combined research experience at leading academic and industry labs including Princeton, Harvard, Yale, MIT and Google Quantum. Our approach is based on neutral atom qubit technology developed in research labs at Princeton by the founding team. Our scalable systems are composed of manufacturable sub-modules, controlled by state-of-the-art CMOS optoelectronics, and designed around a unique computer architecture.
We’re assembling a founding team to help us build the full-stack systems that will power this next leap in computing.
If you’re excited to build something that’s never existed before at the cutting edge of physics and engineering, the chance to shape both the technology and the company from the ground up, come build with us!
About this role
This is a hands-on systems-level engineering role focused on implementing hardware control interfaces, building data pipelines, and helping construct the software infrastructure that powers our quantum hardware.
You’ll work closely with other software engineers, FPGA engineers, physicists, and hardware engineers to build the control stack for our quantum computers piece-by-piece. You’ll build:
Hardware Control Interfaces: Software layers that communicate with cameras, data acquisition systems, and other electronic devices. You’ll design clean abstractions so we can swap hardware components without rewriting the whole stack.
High-Throughput Data Acquisition & Storage: Systems to ingest and archive multiple terabytes of data per day, with pipelines for both real-time and offline analysis.
Tools to automate experiments and calibration routines: Build infrastructure to run common experiments we need to perform frequently.
You might be a good fit if you have experience with:
C/C++ or Rust for systems programming
Interfacing with hardware devices or scientific equipment
Interest in learning about real-time systems, PCIe/DMA, and high-rate data acquisition
No quantum physics knowledge required (although we’re happy to teach you).
Logiqal provides a comprehensive range of perks and benefits, including:
fully paid medical, dental, and vision insurance for employees (with a significant contribution for dependent coverage)
unlimited paid time off for vacation, sick leave and personal days
equity in the company.
The base salary range for this position is between $130,000 - $175,000, commensurate with experience.
