Jobs at Monarch Quantum, Inc.

Lead creation of global supply chain and supplier strategy: build strategic sourcing, supplier quality programs, NPI support, risk mitigation, cost modeling, and cross-functional partnerships to enable scalable manufacturing and commercialization.

Lead photonic module development from concept through production: create project plans, coordinate cross-functional teams, manage suppliers, mitigate technical risks, track schedules/budgets, run design reviews, and drive continuous improvement.

Senior individual-contributor responsible for designing and implementing automated test infrastructure, performing device- and system-level opto-electronic characterization (L-I-V, spectral, beam quality, noise, LIDT), developing validation and environmental test protocols, ensuring regulatory and laser-safety compliance, authoring test documentation, and providing technical leadership and guidance across development and production.

Design, build, align, and characterize free-space and fiber-coupled laser systems for AMO and quantum sensing. Implement frequency stabilization and servo controls, architect optical and opto-electronic subsystems, translate physics requirements into engineering designs, procure and qualify components, maintain engineering documentation, ensure laser safety compliance, and collaborate closely with AMO physicists and engineers to support experiments and system integration.

Technical owner for characterization, qualification, and reliability testing of photonic components and modules. Design and build test setups, execute DOE-driven experiments, measure optical metrics (power, phase noise, RIN, nonlinearity, beam parameters), run EVT/DVT/PVT verification, perform life testing and failure analysis, generate lab-quality data and engineering reports, and build automated test sequences using Python/LabVIEW/MATLAB to drive product development and production readiness.

The Senior PCB Layout Engineer will manage complex PCB designs, ensuring signal integrity and manufacturability while collaborating with cross-functional teams. Responsibilities include defining routing strategies, conducting design reviews, and generating fabrication documentation, all within a dynamic startup environment.

Lead hands-on photonics process development and scale-up including wire and die bonding, vacuum reflow, fiber splicing, optics attachment and active alignment. Design DOEs, improve yield and reliability, develop process documentation, support qualification and pilot manufacturing, perform root-cause analysis, collaborate with vendors, and train technicians to transfer R&D processes into repeatable production.

The Senior Principal Project Engineer leads project development in photonics, managing team dynamics and ensuring successful execution while employing best practices and anticipating risks.

The Optical Systems Engineer designs and executes testing for photonic systems, mentors junior engineers, and collaborates on risk assessment and system design.

The Principal Firmware Engineer will design FPGA-based solutions, mentor junior engineers, manage project scopes, and collaborate across teams to enhance embedded systems.

The Optical Engineer will execute complex engineering tasks, mentor junior engineers, and ensure the accuracy of execution schedule and data quality while engaging with team members and leadership.

The Optical Engineer Level 2 will execute complex engineering tasks, mentor junior engineers, and support optical design and modeling efforts in a startup environment.

Lead development projects in photonic systems, ensuring project scope, schedule, and budget adherence while managing teams and risks effectively.

Lead architecture, design, and integration of advanced laser and photonics systems for quantum technologies. Define core photonics and control technologies, achieve ultra-low noise and high reliability through modeling and experimental validation, collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams, maintain system requirements and validation protocols, and mentor junior engineers to drive technical excellence and scalable engineering practices in a startup environment.

The Robotics Process Engineer 3 will handle engineering tasks, drive innovation in design and analysis, and support project engineering within a startup environment.

The role focuses on technical leadership in designing and integrating advanced laser systems for quantum technologies, mentoring engineers, and aligning technical development with business goals.

As a Principal Optical Engineer, you'll lead optical design projects, ensure data integrity, and drive innovation, while working independently and collaboratively in a startup environment.

Lead end-to-end technical programs from proposal through production, owning scope, schedule, and financials. Coordinate cross-functional engineering, supply chain, finance, and customers; identify and mitigate technical risks; lead contract negotiations and customer-facing communications; ensure compliance with customer, internal, and regulatory requirements; hire, grow, and mentor team members in a fast-moving startup environment.

Lead end-to-end execution of technical development programs: track scope, schedule, and costs; manage cross-functional teams and stakeholders; identify and mitigate risks; support contracts, customer communications, and regulatory requirements; build program dashboards and predictable integrated master schedules.

Design, develop, document, and test electrical products and subsystems. Perform schematic capture, BOM maintenance, PCB layout, prototype bring-up, failure analysis, and support production. Work independently and in teams, apply electrical design best practices, and develop prototypes to mitigate development risks in a fast-paced startup environment.
