Senior System Engineer

Quantum-Art is a full-stack quantum computing company focused on the development of cutting-edge quantum computing systems based on trapped-ion technology, integrating advanced physics, hardware, control systems, electronics, software, and system-level architecture to deliver scalable quantum computing solutions.

We are seeking a highly experienced Senior System Engineer to lead and drive the development of complex, multidisciplinary quantum computing systems. This is a full-stack system engineering role, requiring deep expertise across multiple engineering domains and strong leadership throughout the entire system lifecycle.

The ideal candidate is a seasoned system engineer with extensive hands-on experience, strong methodological background, and proven leadership in complex system development and technical reviews.

Responsibilities

• Lead system engineering activities across the full product lifecycle — from concept and architecture definition through development, integration, verification, validation, and delivery.
• Define and manage system requirements, interfaces, architecture, and trade studies.
• Develop and implement system engineering methodologies, processes, and best practices.
• Lead major technical reviews (SRR, PDR, CDR, TRR, etc.) and ensure readiness and compliance.
• Coordinate multidisciplinary teams including physics, hardware, electronics, opto-mechanics, control systems, and software.
• Conduct risk management, system analysis, performance budgeting, and configuration control.
• Support integration and verification activities for complex quantum physical systems.
• Work closely with R&D and product teams to ensure system robustness, scalability, and performance.

Requirements

• B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electro-Optics Engineering, or a related engineering discipline.
• Extensive experience in system engineering roles across multiple projects.
• Proven experience leading the development of complex multidisciplinary systems end-to-end.
• Strong knowledge of system engineering methodologies, processes, and lifecycle management.
• Demonstrated experience leading formal technical design reviews.
• Broad technical understanding across hardware, electronics, mechanics, control, and software domains.
• Ability to operate in deep-tech, research-driven environments.

Advantages

• Experience working within a System Engineering team.
• Background in quantum physical systems or quantum technologies.
• M.Sc. in Systems Engineering or related field.

General

• We are located at the Science Park, by the Weizmann institute.
