Senior Quantum Engineer - Quantum-Classical Circuits

• Experimental experience with semiconductor quantum dots.
• Experimental experience with nanoscale thermal transport.
• Experience in development of software interfaces to hardware/instrumentation.
• Experience leading research teams.  

Quantum Motion is a fast-growing quantum computing scale-up headquartered in London and founded by internationally renowned researchers from University College London and Oxford University, with over 40 years’ experience in developing qubits and quantum computing architectures. Bringing together state-of-the-art cryogenic facilities and an outstanding interdisciplinary team, we are developing quantum processors based on industrial-grade silicon chips, with the potential to radically transform computing power in areas such as materials modelling, medicine, artificial intelligence and more.

This role forms part of our global investment in state-of-the art facilities across London (UK), Sydney (Australia), San Sebastián (Spain) and Maryland (the US). It reflects our commitment to driving innovation and collaborating with some of the brightest minds in the quantum industry, and additionally taps into the regional strengths in semiconductors and cryogenics around the world.

Our mission is global, and this is a rare and exciting opportunity to join a team which is shaping the future of quantum computing, while also contributing to the development of European quantum technologies by joining the SPINs project to build up quantum PDKs. 

As part of our high-impact and rapidly growing team, you will be working closely with our scientists, engineers and experts in a dynamic environment to make the site run smoothly and compliantly from day one, dedicated to contributing to the development of scalable quantum computers based on silicon technology.

This is a rare and exciting opportunity to be an employee at a scale-up shaping the future of quantum computing.  

 As part of our lean, high-impact and rapidly growing team, you will be working closely with our scientists, engineers and experts in a dynamic environment dedicated to contributing to the development of scalable quantum computers based on silicon technology. Specifically, you will contribute to the EU-funded project SPINs (the European pilot line industrializing semiconductor spin-qubit quantum chips) launched under the EU Chips Act and the Chips Joint Undertaking. Your role will focus on developing quantum PDKs for semiconductor-based spin qubits. 

 As an Senior Quantum Engineer, you will play a critical role in the development and execution of experiments focused on silicon-based quantum systems, while focusing on the investigation of thermal management in quantum chips, assessing the impact of control peripherals on QPU operations.
