QA Architect

A premier, venture-backed Deep Tech company recognized as a forefront pioneer in the global Quantum Computing and next-generation computational architectures landscape. Backed by substantial institutional capital from top-tier venture funds, the company unites world-class researchers, physicists, and multidisciplinary engineers. The company is engineering state-of-the-art computational processors paired with full-stack software and algorithmic frameworks designed to solve high-complexity bottlenecks in Machine Learning and complex optimization. Blending advanced physics, electro-optics, precision electronics, real-time control, and software engineering, the company operates at the absolute frontier of computational science. Located in the Central District directly adjacent to train transit, operating on a hybrid model with one day working from home. Role Description- Serving as a Lead System QA / V&V Architect, joining as the foundational, sole owner establishing and spearheading the company's entire verification, validation, and quality strategy from scratch. Architecting, developing, and executing end-to-end System QA and V&V infrastructures, spanning individual sub-systems up to full-scale multi-disciplinary integration. Leading hands-on system verification across deep hardware-software interfaces: precision optics, control electronics, real-time firmware, software platforms, and algorithmic execution. Designing structured verification protocols, automated test setups, and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) environments to validate system stability, signal fidelity, and computational performance. Partnering directly with research scientists, optical engineers, hardware architects, and core software squads to identify systemic edge cases, define acceptance criteria, and drive root-cause failure analysis. Formulating long-term QA methodologies, documentation standards, and automated regression frameworks to support ongoing platform evolution. Requirements- 5 years of professional experience in System QA, V&V (Verification & Validation), or System Integration – Mandatory Proven track record in a 100% hands-on capacity – Mandatory Demonstrated background as a Sole Contributor, Founder of QA/V&V functions, System QA Architect, or Lead establishing testing architectures and methodologies from scratch – Mandatory Extensive, proven experience testing and verifying highly complex Multidisciplinary systems (integrating software with optics, electronics, control systems, mechanics, or embedded hardware) – Mandatory Strong technical background designing test plans, defining validation metrics, and isolating system-level anomalies across complex physical-digital architectures – Mandatory Self-starter with high intellectual curiosity, outstanding analytical troubleshooting skills, and fluent professional communication in English (written and verbal) – Mandatory
