## Description

PsiQuantum’s&nbsp;mission is to build the first useful quantum computers—machines capable of delivering the breakthroughs the field has long promised. Since our founding in 2016, our singular focus has been to build and deploy million-qubit, fault-tolerant quantum systems. &nbsp; 
Quantum computers harness the laws of quantum mechanics to solve problems that even the most advanced supercomputers or AI systems will never reach. Their impact will span energy, pharmaceuticals, finance, agriculture, transportation, materials, and other foundational industries. &nbsp; 
Our architecture and approach&nbsp;is&nbsp;based on silicon photonics. By&nbsp;leveraging&nbsp;the advanced semiconductor manufacturing industry—including partners like GlobalFoundries—we use the same high-volume processes that already produce billions of chips for telecom and consumer electronics. Photonics offers natural advantages for scale: photons&nbsp;don’t&nbsp;feel heat, are immune to electromagnetic interference, and integrate with existing cryogenic cooling and standard fiber-optic infrastructure. &nbsp; 
In 2024,&nbsp;PsiQuantum&nbsp;announced government-funded projects to support the build-out of our first utility-scale quantum computers in Brisbane, Australia, and Chicago, Illinois. These initiatives reflect a growing recognition that quantum computing will be strategically and economically defining—and that now is the time to scale. &nbsp; 
PsiQuantum&nbsp;also develops the algorithms and software needed to make these systems commercially valuable. Our application, software, and industry teams work directly with leading Fortune 500 companies—including Lockheed Martin, Mercedes-Benz, Boehringer Ingelheim, and Mitsubishi Chemical—to prepare quantum solutions for real-world impact. &nbsp; 
Quantum computing is not an extension of classical computing. It&nbsp;represents&nbsp;a fundamental shift—and a path to mastering challenges that cannot be&nbsp;solved&nbsp;any other way. The potential is enormous, and we have a clear&nbsp;path&nbsp;to make it real. &nbsp; 
Come join us. &nbsp; 
Job Summary: 
The mission of PsiQuantum's Senior Director of Electrical Subsystem Design is to&nbsp;drive the Electronics team's hardware designs which are integral to the&nbsp;underlying system of the quantum computer. This Director will collaborate in&nbsp;cross-functional teams of thermal, mechanical, firmware, and optical engineers.&nbsp;The designs will meet the requirements of the overall system architecture and&nbsp;physical framework of the quantum computer.
Responsibilities: 
- Design and Architecture Strategy: - Developing and implementing multi-blade electrical subsystem&nbsp;design strategies, architectures, processes and best practices that&nbsp;encompass not only hardware but also the attendant low-level&nbsp;control software stack.
- Map out a scalable and extensible hardware implementation&nbsp;architecture that conforms to the system architectural definition.
- Problem Solving: Active participation in troubleshoo
