At Qblox, we are orchestrating the "brain" of the quantum computer. Our distributed control stacks allow for parallel qubit readout and nanosecond-level synchronization across massive architectures. Imagine the complexity of all-to-all connectivity for 1000 qubits, interacting with physical hardware via high-frequency analogue signals—that is the scale of the challenge our verification team faces.
As we expand our R&D capabilities, we are looking for a
Digital Verification Engineer
to ensure our hardware is as reliable as the physics it controls.
The Role You will be a key driver in our RTL verification strategy, developing robust, metric-driven testbenches at both the module and system levels. This is not a siloed role; you will act as a technical sparring partner for our Digital Design and Embedded Software teams, influencing architecture and processes by proposing improvements based on industry best practices.
At Qblox, we foster a culture of ownership. You will have the opportunity to influence technical decisions at a high level and gain a deep understanding of the entire quantum control stack, learning from our in-house physics experts along the way.
What you will do
Own the Verification:
Autonomously develop robust, metric-driven testbenches for complex FPGA/RTL modules and full systems.
Bridge the Disciplines:
Collaborate closely with Digital Design and Embedded Software engineers to analyze requirements and verify technical solutions.
Interpret Complexity:
Work with internal design specs and vendor documentation for FPGAs, third-party ASICs, and software.
Drive Methodology:
Proactively suggest and implement new tools, methodologies (like Cocotb), and advancements in the verification domain.
Analyze & Evaluate:
Understand and interpret VHDL code to ensure effective verification coverage while maintaining a collaborative loop with designers.
Why Qblox? We offer a dynamic environment where engineering meets cutting-edge physics research. You’ll be part of a highly international team that values inclusive knowledge exchange, technical ownership, and a healthy work-life balance.
Enough about us, what about you? To thrive in this environment, you likely possess a "first-principles" approach to problem-solving and a drive to see complex R&D projects through to completion.
The Background:
4+ years of experience in RTL verification within an R&D environment.
The Technical Core:
Expertise in verification planning and implementing self-checking testbenches. You are fluent in SystemVerilog/UVM and have a strong grasp of Python (OOP).
The Tools:
Hands-on experience with high-end simulators (Cadence Xcelium, Synopsys VCS) and a solid understanding of VHDL.
The Architectural Sense:
Familiarity with processor and bus-system architectures (e.g., AMBA AXI, Avalon).
The Essentials:
Proficiency with Git for version control and a results-driven mindset with a high degree of accountability.
The "Nice to Haves":
Knowledge of
Cocotb
and
PyUVM
is a significant plus. Experience with CI/CD (GitLab), container technologies (Docker/Podman), C/C++, or lab-based product validation will help you hit the ground running.
A security screening and reference check may form part of the selection process for this position.
Acquisition in response to our vacancies by recruitment agencies is not appreciated.
