ARTIQ (Advanced Real-Time Infrastructure for Quantum physics) is a leading-edge control system for quantum information experiments, developed in partnership with a growing number of research institutions worldwide.
The system features a high-level programming language that helps describe complex experiments, which is compiled and executed on dedicated hardware with nanosecond timing resolution and sub-microsecond latency.
Traditional gateware design with Verilog and VHDL is well known to be tedious and inefficient. M-Labs have developed Migen, a Python-based HDL and toolbox that addresses many of their issues and makes gateware design more productive.
We are looking for talented people to join our team. If you want to be at the intersection of physics and engineering, collaborate with world-class scientists, and have the freedom to work with cutting-edge open source technology such as embedded Rust, LLVM, and next-generation FPGA tools such as the nMigen language and Yosys - then consider a job at M-Labs.
