Control and reading out orders of magnitude more qubits than today's systems demands rethinking where classical control lives and what technology implements it; you will design and model superconducting digital logic (e.g., single-flux-quantum-family circuits) and related cryogenic electronics, evaluate them against the wiring, power, and thermal budgets of a scaled system, and co-design control approaches with the qubit devices they serve. You will carry designs from concept through simulation, layout, design review, and fabrication handoff, and your evaluations will inform which control-electronics directions the organization invests in. ### Key job responsibilities - Design and simulate superconducting digital circuits and cryogenic control/readout electronics for scalable qubit control - Develop and validate Josephson-junction circuit models, timing and margin analyses, and verification methodology for superconducting digital designs - Quantify system-level trade-offs — wiring count, power dissipation at each cryogenic stage, latency, footprint — across candidate control architectures, and communicate recommendations - Co-design control interfaces with qubit-device colleagues so control electronics and quantum devices are developed as one system - Deliver design artifacts through the organization's design-request and design-review processes, including tapeout-ready layouts and verification reports - Present results internally and, where appropriate, publish in peer-reviewed venues ### About the team The Enabling Technologies team develops technologies and relationships facilitating scaling, including alternative quantum processor architectures, superconducting qubit device packaging, and cryogenic control device electronics. We work alongside a co-located quantum processor design team focused on current-generation devices; the two teams share design and review processes, and moving ideas between them is an explicit part of our charter. ## At a glance - Posted by the employer: Oct 6, 2026 - First seen by OpenNash: Oct 11, 2026 - Last checked: Oct 18, 2026 - Listed for: 12 days - Location: US, CA, San Francisco[Apply on Amazon’s careers site →](https://www.amazon.jobs/en/jobs/10570700/applied-scientist-superconducting-digital-and-cryogenic-control-electronics-center-for-quantum-computing-physical-design-and-simulation-enabling-technologies) ## More jobs at Amazon ### [Applied Scientist, Center for Quantum Computing, Physical Design and Simulation](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/7d5c1606240a20aef702/) US, CA, San Francisco ### [Senior Conversation Designer, Devices & Services Design Group](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/cd9495a9dc1b5c6fdcaf/) US, CA, San Francisco ### [Senior Design Program Manager, Prime Video](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/8a1008c04b6899ced63a/) US, CA, San Francisco ### [Sr. Product Designer, Amazon Music Design](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/ac8a82c23fafea93c83e/) US, CA, San Francisco ### [Sr. UX Manager, AI Services](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/890fd113d00b48c4b767/) US, CA, San Francisco ## Similar jobs at other companies ### [Senior Applied Scientist](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/oracle/jobs/f8ed9ff14b05042cc65f/) Oracle · United States ### [Applied Scientist II](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/microsoft/jobs/1932503c468419f688ab/) Microsoft · United States, Washington, Redmond ### [Principal Applied Scientist](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/microsoft/jobs/6887d8f40d7a9e34526e/) Microsoft · United States, Washington, Redmond ### [Principal, Data Scientist - Applied Machine Learning](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/walmart/jobs/8af78490b17976e76747/) Walmart · United States ### [Senior AI/ML Applied Scientist](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/unitedhealth-group/jobs/78af7d0e20840c30720f/) UnitedHealth Group · Eden Prairie, Minnesota [Jobs in San Francisco, CA](/locations/us/ca/san-francisco/)[Jobs in California](/locations/us-ca/)[Design jobs](/functions/design/) OpenNash lists jobs from employers’ own careers sites and does not handle applications.
