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
  • Join Q-CTRL to turn cutting-edge quantum sensing technology into robust, manufacturable products deployed on real-world airborne, maritime, and uncrewed platforms. As the Team Lead for Magnetic Navigation Systems, you will lead a multidisciplinary engineering team responsible for developing and delivering advanced navigation systems.

We are engineering novel navigation systems from scratch, integrating custom sensor heads, controllers, real-time computer hardware, to deliver a product. This role requires a technically grounded, decisive leader who commands the respect of world-class domain experts, bridges cross-team handoffs cleanly, and drives focused execution through others.

You do not need a background in quantum physics. We value deep-tech experience, strong engineering fundamentals, operational discipline, and a proven ability to lead execution across interdependent teams.
