Full job description

Job Description

Q-Block Computing is seeking an Electronics Engineering Technologist to join our growing team in Ottawa, Ontario. This role offers an exciting opportunity to contribute to the development of cutting-edge quantum technologies in sensing, communication, and computation. The candidate will join Q-Block Computing to support the development and validation of a massively scalable, real-time embedded control platform for quantum hardware.

Job Summary

As an Electronics Engineering Technologist on the Quantum Control Firmware team, you will collaborate with other team members and achieve technical milestones under the guidance of the Senior Embedded Software Developer and the Technical Team Lead. Job duties include the setup, configuration, bench testing, and validation of embedded firmware modules and peripheral device interfaces on ARM Cortex-M-based control platforms. This may include applications in quantum sensing, communication, and computation hardware.

Responsibilities

Configure and bench-test embedded firmware modules for ARM Cortex-M microcontroller platforms within the Arduino/PlatformIO ecosystem per specifications provided by the firmware development team
Set up and validate peripheral device interfaces for DAC, ADC, DDS, PLL, digital potentiometers, and RF attenuator/amplifier ICs communicating over SPI and LVDS, following interface specifications and datasheets
Load and execute firmware builds on target hardware; capture and log performance metrics against acceptance criteria defined by the Technical Team Lead
Execute validation procedures for DMA channel configurations, GPIO management routines, and interrupt-driven I/O timing, and document results
Assist in bench-level calibration and verification of digital control loop outputs (PI2D, FIR/IIR) per provided test plans
Operate standard laboratory instruments including oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, signal generators, and spectrum analyzers to characterize hardware behaviour
Document test results, setup procedures, and anomalies in engineering logs; report findings to the firmware development team
Assist in identifying hardware or firmware faults through systematic troubleshooting following established diagnostic procedures
Collaborate with cross-functional hardware and quantum systems teams
Contribute to a culture of continuous learning and knowledge sharing within the team

Qualification

Diploma or Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering Technology, Electronics Engineering Technology, Computer Engineering Technology, or a related field
2+ years of hands-on experience in electronics or embedded systems bench work, testing, or hardware bring-up
Skills
Practical experience configuring and testing embedded microcontroller platforms; familiarity with Arduino, Teensy, or PlatformIO environments is an asset
Ability to read schematics and component datasheets to set up and validate peripheral interfaces
Hands-on proficiency with laboratory instruments: oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, signal generators, and multimeters
Basic understanding of SPI, I2C, and UART communication protocols
Ability to follow written test plans, capture data, and produce clear engineering documentation
Exposure to digital signal processing concepts or control systems is an asset
Strong attention to detail and a sense of responsibility in all tasks
Critical thinking and problem-solving mindset
Strong interpersonal skills and ability to work collaboratively in a dynamic team environment

Benefits

Extended health care benefits (inc. dental and vision)
Life insurance
