The Role
We are looking for an Electronics Engineering Manager to lead the electronics function within our Systems team at IonQ. You will lead a team of three electronics engineers and grow it as our programmes scale. The team designs, builds and tests the electronics subsystems behind our mission to build the most performant quantum computers.
This is a player-coach role, with roughly 60% of your time spent leading the team and 40% on hands-on design work. You will set the technical direction for our electronics deliverables and build a team that can deliver them reliably, from experimental prototypes to rack-ready production systems.
Responsibilities
You will own the electronics roadmap for current and next-generation quantum systems. That covers schematic capture and PCB layout through to board and system-level test, and the drive architecture for QPU designs.
You will balance hands-on technical leadership with people management, planning and coordination across teams. As the main electronics contact for the physics, firmware, mechanical and systems teams, you will turn complex physical requirements into clear, achievable engineering plans, and you will keep improving the tooling, workflow and capability of the team.Key responsibilities include:
- Team leadership: Lead and develop a team of three electronics engineers and play a key role in growing it through hiring. Set clear goals, run regular 1:1s and performance reviews, and build a culture of technical excellence and accountability.
- Technical direction: Own the architecture of the electronics subsystems, including mixed-signal design, high-speed digital and signal integrity. Approve key design decisions and lead design reviews.
- Delivery and planning: Plan, prioritise and track electronics workstreams against programme milestones, managing resourcing, schedules, risks and dependencies, and report progress to stakeholders.
