Chip Fabrication and Assembly Engineer

Our Mission

QuantWare is the world's leading manufacturer of superconducting quantum hardware. As a high growth start-up with a global customer base, our mission is to accelerate the advent of the quantum computer. We push the boundaries of what's possible in our field. We work on making the world’s largest quantum processors, as fast as possible.

At QuantWare, we’re not just producing quantum hardware for the hyperscalers of tomorrow; we’re working on technology that will change the world. To make that ambition a reality, we need exceptional people who drive real impact. That’s where you come in. 

As a Chip Fabrication & Assembly Engineer, you will be instrumental in driving the development of components that form the backbone of our 3D architecture. Your work will contribute to our ambitious goal of producing quantum processors with over 1000 qubits, a key milestone in advancing quantum computing technology. By joining us, you will have a direct hand in enabling groundbreaking research and shaping the future of scalable quantum computers.

What You'll Be Doing

• Nano Fabrication:  Execute nano fabrication processes using techniques such as ALD, PECVD, evaporation, and DRIE, contributing to the development of components crucial for advancing our 3D architecture

• Chip assembly: Conduct precision alignment and soldering to assemble chips. Assemble and test components to form the 3D architecture, performing mechanical and electrical analyses to ensure functionality and reliability

• Package design:  Innovate and implement packaging solutions for next-generation, large-scale Quantum Processor Units (QPUs)

• Process Enhancement:  Explore novel materials and fabrication methodologies to enhance component quality and accelerate production throughput, driving continuous improvement in our fabrication processes. Make improvements in alignment and soldering tools to ensure efficient production and assembly of the 3D architecture on the long term

Your Profile

You don’t need to tick every box, but if most of these apply, we’d love to hear from you:
