## Job description

At Cadence, we hire and develop leaders and innovators who want to make an impact on the world of technology. The ideal candidate will have substantial experience in quantum engineering, specifically in working with cross-functional teams to develop integrated Quantum Design Automation solutions. Responsibilities include understanding system-level quantum specifications and being able to map them to circuit simulations (classical and quantum), understanding quantum IC layout implementation, and conducting analysis and characterization targeted at superconducting quantum hardware using industry-standard software platforms such as Virtuoso, Spectre, and Clarity.

The role requires exceptional communication skills for effective collaboration internally and direct engagement with end-users. While a PhD in quantum engineering or a related field is highly valued, equivalent industry experience is also considered. The candidate should demonstrate strong motivation and a passion for advancing quantum technologies. Familiarity with alternative quantum hardware modalities, including neutral atoms, trapped ions, and photonic systems, is advantageous.

The annual salary range for California is $154,000 to $286,000. You may also be eligible to receive incentive compensation: bonus, equity, and benefits. Sales positions generally offer a competitive On Target Earnings (OTE) incentive compensation structure. Please note that the salary range is a guideline and compensation may vary based on factors such as qualifications, skill level, competencies and work location.

Our benefits programs include: paid vacation and paid holidays, 401(k) plan with employer match, employee stock purchase plan, a variety of medical, dental and vision plan options, and more. We’re doing work that matters. Help us solve what others can’t.
