Electrical Engineer Visa Sponsorship Jobs in Massachusetts

Electrical Engineer

The Hardware Engineering Organization at QuEra Computing is seeking strong candidates for a Electrical Engineer to support the company’s mission of building state-of-the-art, manufacturable, and deployable neutral atom quantum computers. The Hardware Engineering Organization plays a crucial role in accelerating the company’s technology leadership and translating the company’s scientific breakthroughs into products delivered to customers. To accomplish this mission, we are looking to hire a candidate with a rich background of developing a variety of electronics projects from concept all the way through to production and support. The ideal candidate will have experience at both enterprise-scale companies as well as startups. They will have technical knowledge of at least one of the following: low-noise analog design, high-speed digital systems, RF systems, FPGA-based control, or precision timing - with the ability to come up to speed quickly as needed in the other areas.

Key Responsibilities

• Designing precision analog, mixed-signal, and digital electronics supporting quantum control systems.

• Collaborate with physicists, software developers, and mechanical engineers to define system requirements and interfaces.

• Develop hardware subsystems including power delivery, low-noise analog front ends, high-speed digital control, and RF/microwave circuitry.

• Capable of doing PCB layout (Altium preferred) and validation, working closely with other engineers and external manufacturing partners.

• Guide bring-up, test, and debug of custom boards and system-level integration.

• Follow best practices in electrical design, including design reviews, documentation, and validation procedures.

• Strive for continuous improvement of system performance, reliability, and manufacturability.

Required Qualifications

• BS, MS in Electrical Engineering or closely-related field.

• 3+ years of experience designing complex electrical systems, including both analog and digital domains.

• Proven expertise in one or more of the following: low-noise analog design, high-speed digital systems, RF systems, FPGA-based control, or precision timing.

• Experience with hardware bring-up, lab debugging tools (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, spectrum analyzers), and system integration.

• Proficiency with tools such as Altium Designer, LTspice, MATLAB, or Python for simulation and analysis.

• Strong documentation and communication skills.

• Ability to work effectively in a fast-paced, interdisciplinary startup environment.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in instrumentation or control systems for complex scientific or industrial equipment.

• Soldering/Rework experience for quick debug efforts.

• Experience working in a regulated or safety-critical environment (e.g., aerospace, medical, or high-voltage systems).

• Hands-on experience with firmware development or embedded systems is a plus.

The approximate base salary range for this position is $125,000 - $150,000.

We consistently monitor external market data and update base salary ranges accordingly. We determine base compensation decisions on several factors, including geographic placement, role-specific knowledge, skills, and/or experience. In addition to our base salary offerings, we also provide equity grants for all new hires.
