Electronics Engineer

About the team

The Sensing R&D team at Q-CTRL transforms quantum research into deployable technologies that address real-world problems. We design, build, and field-validate an array of quantum sensors that support our key products, including Ironstone Opal - our solution for GPS-denied navigation.

You don’t need a background in quantum to make an impact here. We value strong engineering fundamentals, a product mindset, and a drive to solve the hardest engineering problems in quantum sensing today.

About the role

We are seeking a Senior Electronics Engineer to join the growing Quantum Sensing division at our laboratories in Sydney, Australia. This role will support the development of new quantum sensor prototypes designed for magnetic and inertial navigation.

As a Senior Electronics Engineer, you will provide technical leadership over hardware projects, taking responsibility for technical deliverables from the initial architecture, through field trials, all the way to product certification. The ideal candidate will be an accomplished analogue/mixed signal design engineer. Experience with RF and optoelectronic devices is also highly desirable, though not essential. As a senior member of the hardware team, you will be expected to mentor engineers and technicians and drive continuous improvement of our hardware development practices.

Reporting to the Lead Engineer (Hardware), the Senior Electronics Engineer will contribute to our rapidly growing efforts to deploy software-ruggedised quantum gravimeters, accelerometers, and magnetometers.
