About the role

Monarch Quantum in San Diego, CA, seeks a Firmware Engineer 2 to help build our foundation from the ground up in a fast-paced startup environment. You will work on cutting-edge FPGA/embedded systems, collaborate closely with leadership, and implement engineering practices that support our mission and growth. Requirements include a Bachelor's degree in Electrical or Computer Engineering and 2+ years in FPGA/embedded development, with hands-on experience using Xilinx Vivado/Vitis.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
