Senior Hardware Integration Engineer

About the team

The Sensing Engineering 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 Ironestone 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

At Q-CTRL, we’re developing navigation and quantum sensing technologies for real-world environments. We’re looking for a Hardware Integration Engineer to own the mechanical and electrical integration of our sensing and navigation systems onto UAS platforms, preparing them for lab, field, and flight deployment.

You’ll work closely with systems, software, and hardware engineers across the US and globally to integrate, bring up, debug, and modify systems across mechanical and electrical domains. As our platforms mature, you’ll also help improve integration practices, documentation, and repeatability while supporting defense and aerospace programs at the intersection of hardware, software, and field operations.
