R&D Sr. Principal - Linthicum Heights, MD, United States - Associates Systems LLC

Description

Our company pushes the boundaries of innovation, redefines the leading edge of exotic new technologies, and drives advances in the sciences
One of our most challenging new fields is Transformational Computing, which combines the unique properties of superconductivity and quantum mechanics to develop radical new energy-efficient computing systems
Our team is chartered with providing the skills to transform computing beyond Moore's Law, advancing development of computer architectures, processing/memory subsystems, and large scale high performance computing systems

You'll work in a fast-paced team environment alongside a broad array of scientists and research engineers to make these processing solutions a reality and deliver remarkable new advantages to the warfighter.

We have an engineering, fabrication, and test facility where our team is developing state of the art next generation superconducting electronics (SCE) and advanced computing technologies
We are currently in a growth mode and are looking for individuals with skillsets including (but not limitied to) the ones listed below who are interested in using their skills in a Top Secret/SCI w/ Counter Intelligence poly cleared level of work with the Defense Intelligence Agency R&D Sr
Principal /Principal Material Scientist Superconducting electronics forms the core of our technology, with a focus on energy-efficient computation including our patented superconducting digital logic technology, Reciprocal Quantum Logic (RQL)
On a gate for gate basis, RQL consumes orders of magnitude less power than CMOS while running at significantly higher clock speeds
The Advanced Technology Lab is seeking Cryogenic Test Management engineers
The qualified candidate will become part of our Transformational Technology Business Area
Transformational Technology is focused on developing state-of-the-art next generation superconducting electronics (SCE) and advanced computing technologies
