This will involve a wide range of technical aspects; from vacuum technology and cryogenics to microwave engineering and quantum physics.

Responsibilities include installing and validating new RF components, maintaining the cryogenic setup, writing new measurement codes, characterizing and improving the company’s superconducting circuits. This position provides a unique opportunity to contribute to the R&D at a deep-tech company. As an integral part of the feedback cycle in device improvement and testing, you will work closely with the other engineering teams in the company as well.

What are you going to do?
  • Maintaining & upgrading cryogenic setups
  • Validating new microwave components and quantum devices
  • Developing measurement code & functionality
  • Characterizing superconducting circuit performance
What are we offering?
  • An exciting position within an ambitious and innovative team and being part of the future of Quantum Computing;
  • We believe in giving and taking ownership, that’s why you decide the number of vacation days you take;  
  • Good pension scheme;
  • The choice between a public transport business card or travel allowance; 
  • Indoor & Outdoor team-activities; 
  • A scale-up environment where you can shape your own role and receive a lot of responsibility;
  • International environment: we are an international company, both in terms of employees as well as customers; 
  • We offer a safe space to experiment, trip, fall and get back up. We have the courage to be vulnerable and learn from experience and feedback. 
Your profile
The ideal candidate probably doesn't exist, but if you check most of the boxes underneath, we would like to get in touch:
  • A master’s degree in physics, preferably with a focus on quantum computing;
  • Exceptionally motivated to make an impact;
  • Experience with programming. If that's Python-based programming, that would be a big plus;
  • Experience with superconducting circuits is a plus;
  • Experience with microwave measurement techniques is a plus;
  • A hands-on and can-do mentality
So, now we've got your attention and interest. Do apply! In case you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out to our recruiter Arzu Sayin via recruitment@quantware.com. As part of our recruitment process, candidates may be required to undergo pre-employment screening.
