Jobs at eleQtron GmbH

Develop and maintain quantum compiler infrastructure, optimization techniques, intermediate representations, code generation, and developer tooling. The role involves writing, testing, debugging, and optimizing production-quality software while collaborating with researchers, engineers, and product teams to deliver scalable compiler solutions.

Design, develop, validate, and optimize FPGA-based systems for trapped-ion quantum control. Responsibilities include RTL development, microwave signal generation, real-time feedback control, automated Python and cocotb testing, hardware integration, formal verification, timing analysis, and test-plan development. The role collaborates with physicists, hardware engineers, and software teams while contributing to production-quality code and agile development practices.

Own the architecture, development, debugging, and release of real-time ARM firmware for quantum-computing control electronics. Develop pulse sequencing, timing, data-flow coordination, low-level drivers, and board support under hard real-time constraints. Lead firmware bring-up with electronics and physics teams, establish embedded engineering practices, and ensure reliable interfaces between firmware and higher-level experiment software.

Senior IT infrastructure and network engineer responsible for implementing and operating secure cloud, endpoint, identity, network, and access systems across multiple locations. The role supports Microsoft 365, Azure, Entra ID, Intune, development platforms, enterprise networking, monitoring, Zero Trust access, laboratory environments, and customer deployments. Responsibilities include troubleshooting complex issues, maintaining documentation, improving IT operations, and serving as the primary technical IT representative for the Hamburg site.

Develop simulation and benchmarking infrastructure for fault-tolerant quantum computing using hardware-derived noise models. Analyze logical performance, decoder strategies, resource requirements, and scaling of quantum error-correction architectures. Collaborate across hardware, software, and theory teams to connect system characterization with logical performance, and contribute to early logical-computing demonstrations and future fault-tolerance capabilities.

Own end-to-end quality for a quantum computing software platform. Define risk-based test strategies, build automated testing frameworks, integrate tests into CI/CD pipelines, conduct exploratory and manual testing, establish quality gates and reporting practices, and collaborate with backend, platform, hardware, and physics teams. The role also promotes testing literacy across the engineering organization.

Develop, assemble, operate, and characterize trapped-ion quantum computers and test devices. Conduct laboratory experiments, apply results to product development, optimize system performance, and participate in hands-on quantum computing R&D alongside multidisciplinary physicists and engineers.

Maintain the reliability, scalability, and operability of software systems supporting trapped-ion quantum computers. Responsibilities include defining reliability metrics and operational guardrails, implementing observability, participating in incident response and root-cause analysis, automating operational tasks, maintaining runbooks, supporting CI/CD and safe releases, and collaborating with software, firmware, physics, and hardware teams.

Own the end-to-end user experience for customer-facing quantum computing platforms and internal laboratory interfaces. Responsibilities include user research, interaction and visual design, prototyping, design-system development in React and TypeScript, data visualization, usability testing, accessibility, API collaboration, and mentoring engineering teams on design quality.

Develops fault-tolerant quantum-computing strategies and logical architectures for trapped-ion processors. Leads hardware-aware quantum error-correction studies, performance modeling, and architectural decisions for future systems. Coordinates cross-functional work across hardware, software, systems, and applications teams, while contributing to research leadership, team mentoring, and the company’s long-term quantum-computing roadmap.

Own complex mechanical components, assemblies, and subsystems from concept through manufacturing, assembly, testing, and validation. Design high-precision scientific and industrial equipment using SolidWorks, produce drawings and BOMs, perform tolerance analysis and GD&T, translate system requirements into manufacturable solutions, and collaborate with suppliers and Procurement. Develop prototypes, support design reviews, and make technical decisions for precision systems.

Build and operate secure, scalable cloud services connecting users to trapped-ion quantum computers. Responsibilities include developing compilation pipelines, APIs and SDK entry points, job queuing and scheduling, authentication and authorization, tenant isolation, secrets management, hardware dispatch, and platform observability. The role collaborates with quantum firmware, hardware, and experimental physics teams while supporting production infrastructure, CI/CD, infrastructure as code, and compliance with data residency requirements.
