Full job description

About Quantum Brilliance

Quantum Brilliance is the world leader in room-temperature quantum computing using synthetic diamonds. Our unique vision is to make quantum computing available as an everyday technology, from data centres to remote and mobile systems like autonomous robots and satellites. In contrast to quantum computers that fill a room, we are developing quantum accelerators with more compute power than a classical supercomputer but in a form factor smaller than a lunchbox.

Founded in 2019 by leaders in diamond quantum science from the Australian National University, we are a full-stack quantum computing company. An Australia-German company, our HQs are in Canberra and Stuttgart, with additional locations across eastern Australia and southern Germany. We are working with global technology leaders to develop quantum computing applications, integrate quantum with high-performance computing, solve materials science challenges and develop ultra-precise semiconductor manufacturing and quantum control techniques. We are backed by leading venture capital funds and major research and technology institutes.

The Mission

The Senior Quantum Engineer plays a central role in the design, development, and performance improvement of our laboratory systems and prototype integrated quantum devices that harness the unique properties of diamond-based spin qubits for scalable quantum computing solutions. We are seeking a skilled and experienced quantum engineer to join our dynamic team and drive the advancement of our research efforts around the design and development of diamond-based scalable integrated quantum technologies.

About the Role
As a Senior Quantum Engineer with a strong inclination towards photoelectric readout detection, you will be a key member of the Quantum Engineering team, playing a central role in driving the development of new readout techniques for qubits in diamond-based quantum devices. We are looking for candidates with strong engineering principles and resourcefulness, where organization, initiative taking, and communication skills are essential. Your work will contribute towards the advancement of our quantum technology capabilities and drive forward the practical application of our research and development efforts for diamond-based integrated quantum devices.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Development and optimization of new readout techniques to enable quantum operations on multi-qubit systems using confocal R&D setups.
  • Selection of state-of-the-art optical and electronic components, as well as the research and development of new components, to push the limits of signal amplification for photoelectrical detection.
  • Integration of developed components into production-ready systems, prototypes, and R&D systems for diamond-based scalable integrated quantum technologies.
  • Testing, documentation and troubleshooting of the developed components and electronics hardware.
  • Follow good requirements engineering practices.
  • Collaborate with our internal and international cross-functional teams.
  • Design and execute complex experiments, perform detailed data analysis, prepare technical reports and presentations, follow best practices and deliver high-quality outcomes.
  • Stay updated on the latest advancements in quantum information science and technology, with a particular focus on diamond-based quantum technologies, and contribute to the company's intellectual property portfolio through patents and/or publications.

Essential skills :

  • PhD in Physics, Quantum Information Sciences, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
  • 3+ years of experience in the fields of experimental metrology, quantum information science or related fields (this can include your PhD experience).
  • Experience in building and operating advanced optical laboratory instrumentation and proficiency in experimental techniques for characterization of multi-qubit systems and/or quantum sensing based systems, or related area of expertise.
  • Proven track record of scientific publications and/or patents in the field of quantum information processing (computing, sensing, communications, networking) or related fields.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to work independently and collaboratively within a team.
  • Eager to learn new technical skills and contribute to our collaborative working environment.
  • Proficient communication skills (verbal and written) in English, plus good interpersonal skills.

Desirable skills:

  • Experience in diamond/NV-based experimental research (sensing, communications/network, computing).
  • Ideally, proficient in experimental techniques for photoelectric readout of NVs in diamond.
  • Proficient programming skills (Python, MATLAB, or similar languages) for data analysis and algorithm development.
  • Experience successfully delivering on projects as part of a multidisciplinary team or collaboration.
  • Ability to be flexible and adapt to new situations in a rapidly changing environment.
  • Trusted teamwork and coaching skills.
  • Basic German skills are a plus, but not a requirement
