Continuous variable (CV) quantum computation offers an alternative to qubit-based computing by exploiting the infinite-dimensional Hilbert space of bosonic modes. Despite recent progress, superconducting platforms have yet to demonstrate a scalable architecture capable of universal this http URL, we design and numerically simulate a two-layer superconducting architecture that implements all five interactions of the universal CV gate set (rotation, displacement, squeezing, Kerr, and beam splitter) within experimentally accessible regimes. To this end, we employ a DC-SQUID as the bosonic mode, a fluxonium qubit to mediate nonlinear interactions, and two ancillary qubits that enable Gaussian and multi-mode operations. By tuning fluxes and frequencies, we achieve high fidelities (≥98%) across all gates within state-of-the-art parameter ranges. The modular nature of the design allows straightforward scaling, establishing a feasible pathway toward high-fidelity, universal CV quantum computation based on superconducting circuits.
