Senior Device Processing Engineer at Silicon Quantum Computing, Sydney (remote).
A senior-level full time position in the Device Processing team, listed under software engineering.
About the role
We are hiring a Senior Device Processing Engineer to help develop and optimise the fabrication processes behind SQC's atomic-scale quantum devices.
This is hands‐on work across the full process flow, at the point where process science meets production‐grade discipline.
You'll work across the full process flow, refining complex fabrication techniques, resolving process challenges as they come up, and developing current proof‐of‐concept processes to support SQC's roadmap toward utility‐scale logical quantum computing.
The work spans everything from optimising established methods to keep device yield and reproducibility high, through to greenfield process development for devices that haven't been built before.
You'll fabricate and characterise silicon‐based quantum devices in our cleanroom, working alongside global experts.
This is a senior individual contributor role.
You won't manage a team, but you'll bring real breadth across the whole process flow and set the standard for how the work gets done.
We're looking for someone who can operate anywhere in the flow rather than in one corner of it, and who the engineers around them learn from.
You'll work closely with cleanroom managers, scientists, and engineers to keep fabrication running with high yield and operational continuity.
Essential
Master's or PhD in Engineering, Physics,



Nanotechnology, or a related field
Minimum 5 years' hands‐on experience in cleanroom semiconductor fabrication
Demonstrated hands‐on expertise in electron beam lithography
Strong experience across adjacent nanoscale processes (etching, deposition, materials integration)
Proven ability to optimise and troubleshoot fabrication processes and equipment
Track record of independently developing, documenting, and transferring fabrication recipes
Demonstrated leadership in a collaborative technical environment
Responsibilities
Lead the optimisation of semiconductor fabrication processes across the full flow (lithography, etching, deposition, packaging) to improve performance and reproducibility
Develop new fabrication techniques to support the scaling of quantum architectures
Perform advanced device processing, with electron beam lithography as a core daily tool
Conduct detailed root cause analysis and resolve complex fabrication issues
Maintain cleanroom equipment and infrastructure
Provide technical leadership and guidance to junior engineers and researchers
Contribute to documentation, process control discipline, and safety procedures
Nice to Have
Experience operating in a commercial fab, foundry, or production‐oriented research consortium
Exposure to formal process control, yield tracking, or production discipline beyond pure academic research
Familiarity with quantum device fabrication or other ultra‐low‐defect process environments
