PCB/Flex Process Engineer, Assembly and Manufacturing
Company: Rigetti And Company Inc
Location: Berkeley
Posted on: January 27, 2023
Job Description:
Rigetti Computing is building the world's most powerful
computers to solve humanity's most pressing problems. We believe
this technology will fundamentally change the world for the better
and will affect nearly every industry over the coming decades. Now
a public company, Rigetti is looking to expand its Quantum
Engineering team through the addition of an experienced PCB/Flex
Process Engineer.As a PCB/Flex Process Engineer - Assembly and
Manufacturing on the Hardware team at Rigetti Computing, you will
develop cutting-edge solutions to enable the scaling of quantum
computers in complexity to a larger number of qubits while
increasing performance, focusing on developing high-density signal
delivery leveraging flex and rigid PCBs, and assembly solutions
that enable microwave RF signaling to our quantum devices at
cryogenic temperatures. You will be working closely with a team of
electrical engineers, mechanical engineers, and physicists, as well
as outside component suppliers, to define component & assembly
processes that meet these scaling & performance challenges. You
will guide supplier process development and integrate components,
design test protocols and integrate those components into the
R&D and production release workflows.The ideal candidate brings
experience working with suppliers on the materials & processes used
in PCBs, Flexible Electronics, and Assembly of components,
preferably using innovative materials. You enjoy working in a
multi-disciplinary environment, and you excel at translating
functional requirements into prototypes and then guiding those
products through development into low-volume manufacturing. You are
able to identify requirements and constraints and manage effective
test programs that navigate these inputs. You are a strong
communicator who keeps stakeholders informed and involved.As
quantum computing leaders, we value diversity and are committed to
building a culture of inclusion to attract and engage innovative
thinkers. Our technology, meant to serve all of humanity, cannot
succeed if those who built it do not mirror the diversity of the
communities we serve. Applications from women, minorities, and
other underrepresented groups are strongly encouraged.What You
Bring to the Table:
- BS degree or higher in Mechanical Engineering, Materials
Science, Electrical Engineering, Physics, or related field
- 3+ years of relevant industry experience
- Experience working with (or at) suppliers to specify and
develop PCB, Flex, and/or assembly processes
- Experience with the full development cycle of components - from
concept to prototype to production- and with defining the
requirements at each stage, including knowledge of quality control
and manufacturing processes
- Experience with process flows, integration challenges, and
material choices for at least one of PCBs, Flex, and Assembly
processes
- Experience with plating processes - specifying & characterizing
results
- Familiarity with IPC A-610 and IPC 6013, or equivalent for
quality and acceptance criteria of PCB and flex circuitry
- Hands-on experience with Design for Manufacturing and
identifying and solving defect issues & process control issues in
PCB/Flex/Assembly, and being able to communicate feedback to the
supplier for corrective action and yield improvement
- You are excited by and value learning and growth
- Excellent technical communication and collaboration skills in a
multi-domain environment including mechanical engineers and
physicistsBonus Points If You Have:
- Understanding of superconducting and cryogenic behavior of
materials and their use in electronic components
- Familiarity with PCB layout softwareBenefits and Perks:Rigetti
