Top Tech Jobs & Startup Jobs

Develops and improves multistep nanophotonic fabrication processes in cleanroom environments. Performs high-resolution lithography, thin-film deposition, wet and dry etching, microscopy, and metrology. Designs experiments to diagnose process failures and improve uniformity, repeatability, and yield. Documents recipes and results, collaborates with photonic designers and test engineers, coordinates shared-facility fabrication, and connects fabrication outcomes to optical performance.

Build, integrate, test, and operate experimental quantum hardware systems spanning electronics, optics, vacuum, cryogenics, timing, firmware, and software. Develop automation, calibration, and analysis tools; troubleshoot complex hardware and software failures; improve laboratory infrastructure and procedures; and document systems for reliable operation and reproducibility.

Own the accounting function for a growing multi-entity hardware company, including financial systems, close, consolidation, cost and fixed-asset accounting, controls, procurement accounting, audits, and core AP, AR, payroll, and expense operations. Lead the migration from QuickBooks to a modern GL, establish scalable processes, support technical GAAP matters, manage outsourced bookkeeping, and provide accurate reporting for leadership and board materials.

Supports daily Ann Arbor office operations by organizing shared spaces, managing mail and packages, coordinating food and beverages, assisting with meetings and events, maintaining inventories and records, coordinating vendors, and communicating facilities needs. The role requires dependable, proactive, detail-oriented service, comfort with hands-on tasks, professional communication, discretion, and the ability to manage multiple priorities on-site.

Manage daily San Francisco office operations while providing proactive executive support to the co-founder and leadership team. Responsibilities include calendar and meeting coordination, domestic and international travel arrangements, vendor and facilities management, supplies and workplace services, office access, onboarding and offboarding logistics, guest visits, events, confidential information, and process improvement. The role requires strong organization, discretion, independent judgment, and a hands-on approach in a fast-growing environment.

Develop and improve ASTRA-sim for modeling and simulating heterogeneous AI hardware architectures. Integrate internal estimation tools into simulation frameworks, model distributed training, inference, and reasoning workflows across GPUs, CPUs, and novel accelerators, and collaborate with internal teams and external partners.

Lead the end-to-end fault-tolerant architecture integrating multiple qubit modalities, translate QEC theory into hardware-aware protocols, drive simulation and benchmarking frameworks, make architectural trade-offs under device constraints, co-design for AI/ML workloads, and mentor multidisciplinary teams.

Open application inviting scientists, engineers, and operators to apply for roles at the intersection of quantum computing and AI. Applicants should provide an introduction, explain their interest, describe desired roles, share relevant work, and note availability for Ann Arbor or San Francisco offices. The company offers visa sponsorship, competitive compensation, equity, health benefits, and unlimited PTO. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis for current or future fits.

Design, implement, and optimize hardware-ready quantum circuits and software. Build and maintain compilation/transpilation tooling, profile and benchmark performance, collaborate with research and hardware teams, and contribute to internal quantum software infrastructure.

Research and develop quantum-accelerated AI algorithms and theory across generative modeling, probabilistic inference, optimization, and scientific machine learning. Design quantum algorithms and resource estimates, build hybrid quantum-classical workflows, prototype systems in Python/JAX/PyTorch and quantum frameworks, and collaborate with hardware teams to inform architecture and benchmarking.
