About Xanadu:

Xanadu’s mission is to build quantum computers that are useful and available to people everywhere.

At Xanadu, we are learners, innovators, researchers, collaborators and problem solvers. We are creating something that has never been built before. Few people in their life will be able to be a part of something like this, where if we are successful, the technologies we develop will solve some of the world’s most challenging problems, and literally change the world. And that is something to be excited about!

Your Role and Responsibilities:

As part of the Hardware Team in Toronto, you will take your hands-on experience in delivering high-performance electronic chip packaging solutions, and apply it to Xanadu’s cryogenic photon number resolving detector development. In the role of microelectronics packaging technician, you will be responsible for mounting and integrating the electronic components of our superconducting detectors and their readout systems. This will include a mix of electronic, mechanical, and optical component assembly with diagnostics and metrology on the assembled components. You will be involved in developing cutting-edge packaging techniques in the context of large-scale arrays cryogenic superconducting photon detectors.
