Equal1
Imran Bashir has a diverse work experience spanning over several companies and roles. Imran is currently the VP of Analog Engineering at equal1.labs, where they lead the IC design team and focuses on system architecture and IC design of cryogenic electronics for silicon qubit manipulation. Prior to this, Imran worked as a Principal IC Design Engineer at Cypress Semiconductor Corporation from 2016 to 2019. Imran also held the role of a Mixed Signal IC Design Engineer at Senseeker Engineering, Inc. from 2014 to 2015, where they focused on analog front end design for infra-red image sensors. Imran has also worked as a Visiting Researcher at University College Dublin (UCD) in 2015 and as an RFIC Verification Engineer at NVIDIA from 2009 to 2014. Imran started their career as an RF Systems Engineer at Texas Instruments from 2002 to 2009.
Imran Bashir's education history includes earning a Bachelor of Science (B.S.) in Electrical Engineering from The University of Texas at Arlington from 1998 to 2001. Imran then pursued a Master of Science (M.S.) in Electrical Engineering from The University of Texas at Dallas, which they completed from 2006 to 2008. Following this, they obtained a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Electrical Engineering from The University of Texas at Dallas, which spanned from 2009 to 2014. Currently, they are attending San Jose State University to study Quantum Computing, without mention of a specific degree.

Equal1 Laboratories is accelerating the introduction of useful, cost effective quantum computers within a three-year time horizon. The company has developed a disruptive, scalable and cost-effective quantum computing technology, based on a commercially available silicon semiconductor process. Our solution uses nanometer-scale quantum dots to form qubits on a standard silicon CMOS process. Along with silicon qubits, we have integrated all functions required for a quantum processing unit (QPU) – the brain of the quantum computer – which operates at 3 kelvin with over 10 million transistors. This is the first integrated quantum processing unit of its kind. The company’s server-sized demonstrator, called Alice, uses the second generation, fully functioning QPU. Alice uses our 424 quantum-dot-array structure to demonstrate early indications of the impact this technology can have on AI applications. Equal1 is developing its silicon-based quantum computer technology in collaboration with University College Dublin, with hardware development laboratories in Fremont, California and a silicon design center at NovaUCD in Dublin, Ireland.
