Top Tech Jobs & Startup Jobs

Design, build, maintain, and optimize quantum compilation software for the Superstaq cloud platform. Conduct quantum computing R&D, collaborate with physicists and software engineers across the quantum stack, support customers, contribute to proposals and global programs, publish research, present at conferences, and guide teammates.

Design and optimize quantum error-correcting codes and protocols for experimental gate-based quantum computers, especially neutral atom platforms. Develop mathematical models, numerical simulations, and custom decoders; analyze and mitigate quantum-system noise; and collaborate with physicists and software engineers on practical implementation. The role also involves publishing and presenting research, tracking advances in quantum error correction, supporting teammates, and contributing to productization efforts.

Lead the UK integrated photonics capability, driving design, simulation, fabrication, testing, and packaging of silicon photonics PICs and integrated subsystems. Oversee technical project execution, mentor team members, coordinate with foundries and suppliers, characterise lasers and combs, identify commercialization opportunities, and present technical results to stakeholders.

Lead revenue recognition, contract accounting, and ASC 606 analyses for complex multi-element, milestone, government, and commercial contracts. Prepare technical accounting memos, maintain revenue schedules and waterfall reports, support monthly/quarterly close and SEC disclosures, assist PCAOB audits, and improve NetSuite revenue processes and SOX controls while partnering cross-functionally with legal, program management, FP&A, and contracts teams.

Lead systems engineering for a Quantum Gravity Gradiometer pathfinder: manage requirements, ICDs, V&V, integration and test, configuration/document control, risk and FMEA, architecture and SWaP tracking, and product lifecycle execution while enabling repeatable systems practices and customer-ready deliverables for government and commercial R&D programs.

Provide legal counsel for complex commercial and strategic transactions (70–80% focus); draft, negotiate, and manage customer, government, licensing, SaaS, vendor, and research agreements; advise on export controls, national security, and public company reporting; align contracts with finance on revenue recognition and disclosure; develop scalable legal playbooks, training, and approval frameworks; and support cross-functional corporate, regulatory, and governance matters within a lean legal team.

Supports financial reporting, operational accounting, budgeting, forecasting, dashboards, variance analysis, audits, grant accounting, and financial systems improvements. Partners with R&D and Operations teams to maintain budget alignment and scalable processes. Leads pricing analysis for government bids and new contracts. The role is based between the Oxford office and Harwell’s National Quantum Computing Centre, with up to 10% travel and limited work-from-home flexibility.

Develop time series forecasting, anomaly detection, and predictive maintenance models for quantum sensor systems. Analyze large-scale telemetry data, integrate machine learning models into live systems, evaluate deployed performance, and build continuous refinement pipelines. The role requires production-quality Python development, applied mathematics and physics expertise, and collaboration across product and engineering teams. Familiarity with quantum physics, MLOps, real-time data pipelines, cloud platforms, control theory, and lower-level programming is desirable.

The Senior Embedded Systems Engineer designs and develops embedded software and hardware for Quantum RF systems, collaborating with cross-functional teams to ensure successful system integration and deliver high-performance solutions.

Designs, models, aligns, tests, troubleshoots, and validates optical subsystems for neutral-atom quantum computing platforms. The role involves hands-on laboratory work, Zemax optical modeling, tolerance and sensitivity analysis, experimental characterization, system integration, technical documentation, and workflow improvement. Collaboration with physicists and multidisciplinary engineering teams is required. Candidates need a relevant bachelor’s degree, optical alignment and laboratory measurement experience, Zemax familiarity, rigorous documentation habits, and willingness to learn SolidWorks.
