Jobs at Quandela

Lead foundational IT systems across Quandela’s headquarters and international subsidiaries. Responsibilities include user and device support, identity and network administration, cloud and application management, subsidiary onboarding, vendor coordination, IT governance, security hardening, monitoring, sovereign-cloud migrations, and responsible AI adoption. The role combines technical leadership, hands-on contribution, cybersecurity improvement, business-process partnership, and consistent international IT service delivery.

Develop and evaluate classical, quantum, and hybrid machine-learning methods for quantum computing. Responsibilities include designing models, improving quantum-system calibration and control, benchmarking methods, contributing to the MerLin framework, publishing research, presenting findings, collaborating with academic and multidisciplinary teams, and mentoring junior researchers.

Build Quandela’s procurement function from the ground up, owning direct procurement for electronics, microelectronics, and equipment. Establish supplier contracts and panels, define procurement processes and specifications, manage supplier performance and risks, develop forecasts and strategic plans, and ensure export-control compliance. Partner closely with engineering, production, finance, and legal teams while translating technical requirements into sourcing strategies.

Perform hands-on optical characterization of single-photon sources in cavities, optimize excitation and pulse shaping, measure KPIs (lifetime, indistinguishability, brightness, purity, spin), automate instrumentation and data processing with Python, work with cryogenics/vacuum and collaborate with fabrication and production teams to improve procedures and reproducibility.

Lead and conduct advanced research in quantum computing and photonic quantum systems, develop novel concepts and translate them into prototypes, publications, and patents. Provide technical leadership across multidisciplinary R&D projects, support program proposals and collaborations with government and industry, mentor junior researchers, and contribute to Quandela's U.S. research roadmap and strategic objectives.

The Research Engineer will develop and operate spin-control experiments, optimize system performance, and contribute to the research roadmap in quantum optics and spin manipulation.

You will work with lead researchers on developing a module for quantum processing units, enhancing their capabilities in photonic quantum information processing.

Own and grow Quandela's social media across LinkedIn, YouTube, X and Instagram. Create and execute editorial calendars, translate complex quantum topics into engaging content, collaborate with product and research teams, monitor analytics, and optimize performance to grow community and support launches.

Evaluate and adapt advanced fault-tolerant quantum algorithms for Quandela's spin-photonic architecture, perform resource estimation and simulations, collaborate with hardware and FTQC teams, contribute to R&D projects, and communicate results through reports and publications.

Develop and validate spin-based quantum experiments: design optical spin-photon source experiments, implement optical spin control and readout, measure coherence and entanglement fidelity, collaborate with theory and engineering teams, and translate results into robust building blocks for hybrid quantum computing architectures.
