About Pasqal
PASQAL designs and develops Quantum Processing Units (QPUs) and associated software tools.
Our innovative technology enables us to address use cases that are currently beyond the reach of the most powerful supercomputers; these cases can concern industrial application challenges as well as fundamental science needs.
In addition to the exceptional computing power they provide QPUs are highly energy efficient and will contribute to a significant reduction in the carbon footprint of the HPC industry.
PASQAL has theambition of building and developing Quantum Processing Units (QPU) enablinghighly performant computation using neutral atoms manipulated with lasers. Onthe hardware level the complexity of the system makes this journey unique andinteresting.
In the System Integration team of the Hardware department we are responsible for the integrationactivities of new subsystems into our QPU platforms. The development of suchsubsystems follows the commonly known Vmodel starting with a topdownsystem decomposition and definition stream followed by a bottomupintegration and recomposition stream with the corresponding dedicatedverification & validation tests at each level.
The role of the System Integration team in this Vcycle is the following:
- in the specification stream from QPU system requirements to QPU highlevel designs to QPU subsystems detailed designs:
- The core mission is to define the QPU subsystems verification plans in relation with highlevel subsystem designs.
- The team also has the mission to review subsystems detailed designs (led by other teams in Hardware) to ensure that new subsystems interfaces are well defined and compatible with the QPU platforms.
- Finally the team contributes to the definition of the QPU system verification and validation plans led by the System Performances team.
- in the testing stream from QPU subsystem unitary testing to QPU subsystem verification to QPU system verification & validation:
- The team is in charge of integrating subsystems including both Hardware integration activities and Embedded Software integration & deployment activities.
- The team is responsible for defining and validating subsystems integration procedures integration test plan and integration test reports before they are transferred to the Manufacturing department.
Main responsibilities of the Team Lead System Integration:
People and team management:
- Identify recruitment needs formalize them partner with the Talent Acquisition team during the hiring process
