Quantum Processor Architect (Quantum Processor)
About Us: Anyon Systems is building the next generation of superconducting quantum computers. We design and operate full-stack quantum systems, from fabrication and cryogenics to control electronics, calibration, and software. What differentiates Anyon is execution speed, technical depth, and a relentless focus on making quantum hardware work in practice, not just on paper. Our Tel Aviv R&D center is a critical powerhouse driving Anyon Systems’ global quantum roadmap. Far from a traditional satellite office, this strategic hub owns the core pillars of our technology: quantum control, calibration, benchmarking, and AI-first automation. We deliberately anchored this team in Israel to leverage the ecosystem’s unmatched pedigree in deep-tech execution, defense-grade engineering, and rigorous applied research. As a member of this team, you will operate with complete autonomy and high agency, directly shaping the flagship products deployed to our customers worldwide. Role Overview: You will define the architecture of next-generation superconducting quantum processors, balancing performance, scalability, and manufacturability. Key Responsibilities: Design qubit and processor-level architectures Define coupling, control, and readout strategies Analyze tradeoffs between coherence, connectivity, and control complexity - Work closely with fabrication, control, and calibration teams Guide hardware roadmap decisions Qualifications: PhD or significant experience in quantum hardware or superconducting circuits Strong understanding of transmon-based architectures or related platforms Experience with system-level design and tradeoff analysis What We Offer: Core technical roles in a rapidly scaling quantum hardware company Direct access to real, state-of-the-art quantum processors High autonomy, technical ownership, and short feedback loops Collaboration with world-class experimental, theoretical, and AI teams - Competitive Israeli-market compensation and meaningful equity Flexible work culture focused on results and execution Opportunity to shape the future architecture of quantum systems Security / Defense Backgrounds: Candidates with backgrounds in defense, aerospace, intelligence, secure systems, RF, real-time systems, or classified R&D environments are strongly encouraged to apply. Experience operating complex systems under strict performance, reliability, and security constraints is highly valued.
