Job Description

n

Silicon Quantum Computing We are hiring a Quantum Engineer to scale and advance SQC's silicon multi-qubit processors. Working alongside quantum physicists, atomic fabrication engineers, software and hardware engineers, you'll design, characterise, and optimise quantum processors based on atom spin qubits.

n

You will operate advanced cryogenic and control systems to perform low-noise qubit measurements, validate device performance, refine qubit control and readout, and support the scale-up toward large error-corrected architectures. This role suits an experimentalist who is comfortable with coding, rigorous in data analysis, and motivated to translate quantum device physics into scalable processor performance. Benefits

n

At SQC you will work at the frontier of quantum computing alongside a world-class multidisciplinary team of physicists and engineers, with access to unique atomic-scale fabrication and measurement capabilities. We offer a collaborative, fast-moving research environment where your work directly shapes the scale-up of error-corrected quantum processors. The position is full-time and based at our Sydney (Kensington NSW) facility.
