Jobs at Universal Quantum

Lead day-to-day finance operations (AP/AR, invoicing, reconciliations, month‑end), prepare VAT returns, support audits and close processes, manage suppliers, monitor spend, improve and automate financial processes, and strengthen internal controls across multi-entity environments.

Design and build thermal control systems and electronic enclosures for quantum devices. Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams and manage project planning.

Universal Quantum is seeking individuals passionate about creating impactful quantum technologies. This is an opportunity to express interest in unlisted roles by submitting your application directly.

Develop and simulate quantum error correction protocols, design experiments characterizing noise profiles, and optimize performance for various applications.

Develop software to operate quantum processors, design and optimize algorithms, collaborate in a multidisciplinary team, and lead major features in the software stack.

As a Quantum Algorithm Scientist, you will develop and modify quantum algorithms, match classical problems to algorithms, and design experiments for hardware benchmarking.

Operate and improve ion-trap quantum computing experiments: develop control protocols, perform calibration, optimisation and characterisation, build theoretical models and simulations, and collaborate with multidisciplinary engineering and software teams to advance quantum hardware.

Lead design, operation, calibration, and optimisation of ion-trap quantum hardware. Develop experimental methods for quantum measurement and control, build simulations to guide experiments, coordinate cross-disciplinary teams, mentor junior staff, and contribute new concepts for future quantum computing products.

Design and produce full-custom mixed-signal IC layouts across hierarchy levels, ensure DRC/LVS-clean layouts, collaborate with designers, implement across fabrication processes, and deliver floor-planning, device-matching, and sensitive-signal routing within project schedules.

The role involves developing and integrating FPGA systems for quantum computers, focusing on RTL design and electronic circuit integration, while collaborating across various engineering disciplines.

Develop and lead advanced assembly methods for quantum computer devices using 2.5D/3D IC integration. Drive methodology, vendor selection, productivity improvements, and resolve reliability and performance challenges through simulation, FEM, and hands-on assembly development.

Design and build precision test rigs, develop test plans, and perform experimental validation and high-frequency characterization of quantum device electronics. Collaborate with device and electronics teams to improve test coverage, automate measurements, and document reproducible procedures and results.

Develop, design, and test microfabricated Paul (ion) traps: create fabrication flows and design rules, liaise with manufacturers, design test masks, work with package designers, document designs and simulations, and port novel microfabrication techniques into manufacturable processes.

Design, build, test and integrate thermal control and electronic enclosure systems for ion-trap quantum devices. Perform thermal/mechanical modelling, CAE/FEA analysis, hands-on testing, supplier management, and participate in project planning and risk management within a multidisciplinary team.

Universal Quantum invites applications from individuals with a background in quantum physics for potential roles in quantum computing development. Candidates should ideally possess an experimental PhD in quantum fields and relevant hands-on experience in quantum operations and multi-qubit algorithms.

Design, develop, and maintain software components for simulation tools; collaborate with teams to optimize workflows and ensure high-performance code delivery.

Drive development of advanced ceramic semiconductor packages for quantum microchips, leading design, FEM thermal/electrical/mechanical simulation, CAD layout, micro-assembly and electro-mechanical testing in extreme environments (cryogenic, low vacuum). Collaborate with vendors, implement Design for X, resolve reliability issues across wide temperature ranges, and improve packaging methodologies and manufacturing readiness.

Design, simulate, and document microfabricated Paul (surface) ion traps; perform electromagnetic and thermo-mechanical analysis; liaise with fabrication partners; develop packages, assembly procedures, and test methods; and communicate designs to stakeholders.

The Supply Chain & Procurement Lead will design and manage global supply chains, handle supplier negotiations, oversee logistics, and implement procurement processes while collaborating with engineering, finance, and legal teams.

Design, build, test and document complex large-scale electronics control systems for quantum computers. Perform analog and digital circuit and PCB design, FPGA and embedded software integration, lab verification with test equipment, collaborate with multidisciplinary teams, support project planning, risk management, and supplier engagement.
