IonQ Oxford
Inspects incoming, in-process and finished components against mechanical, electrical and PCBA specifications, interpreting GD&T drawings and programming CMM, OMM or vision systems. Owns the inspection side of the Material Review Board, controlling nonconforming material and closing NCRs, while allocating daily work and guiding less experienced inspectors.
IonQ Oxford
Lead validation and characterisation of analogue and mixed-signal ASICs for trapped-ion quantum processors, from test planning and platform development through first-silicon bring-up, debug and system integration. The role spans room-temperature and cryogenic (around 4 K) measurements on packaged parts, chip-on-board assemblies and bare die, with heavy Python automation and test PCB work.
IonQ Oxford
Lead a team of three electronics engineers within the Systems team, acting as a player-coach with roughly 60% leadership and 40% hands-on design. Own the electronics roadmap for quantum systems, covering schematic capture, PCB layout, mixed-signal and high-speed digital design, and the transition from prototypes to rack-ready production hardware.
IonQ Oxford
Build and lead a team owning the hardware test estate for quantum-computer control software, from CI systems to new QA and staging rigs. Define test-system architecture, plan builds with Manufacturing, and shape testing strategy across simulation and hardware-in-the-loop. Act as test architect, driving automation and self-service rig usage.
IonQ Oxford
Leads the evolution of the system software architecture for a quantum computer, spanning real-time hardware control, low-level orchestration and developer-facing interfaces across a family of products. Coaches technical leads in architectural principles and coordinates with infrastructure, firmware and compiler teams in the UK and US, working at system level rather than designing through code.
