Capture this keyword map once—then reuse it for alerts, feeds and prompts.

Step 2: Build Precise Boolean Searches (Copy & Paste)

Start broad in Google, then add site: filters for high-signal employer, ATS and academic domains.

Tighten with exclusions like -"Senior" for mid-level, or -contract if you want permanent.

Step 3: Turn Searches Into Google Alerts & RSS

Let new postings come to you automatically.

Setup (quick)

1. Open Google Alerts.

2. Paste a Boolean string.

3. Show options → choose At most once a day (or As-it-happens if you’re sprinting).

4. Deliver to: pick RSS feed (paste into Feedly/Inoreader) or email.

5. Create separate alerts per cluster: Software/SDKs, Algorithms, QEC/Compiler, Superconducting, Ions/Atoms, Photonic, Cryogenics/Microwave, QKD/QRNG, PQC, Graduate.

Good alert examples (copy-paste):

("Quantum Software" OR "Quantum Developer") (Qiskit OR Cirq OR PennyLane OR "AWS Braket" OR "Azure Quantum") (UK OR "Remote UK")

("Quantum Error Correction" OR "Compiler Engineer") (surface OR LDPC OR decoder OR "logical qubit") (UK OR "Remote UK")

("Experimental Physicist" OR "Quantum Engineer") (transmon OR "dilution fridge" OR "readout resonator" OR cryogenic OR microwave) (UK)

("Photonic" OR "Quantum Optics") (interferometer OR SPDC OR "single-photon" OR SNSPD OR waveguide) (UK OR "Remote UK")

("Quantum Key Distribution" OR QKD OR QRNG) (entanglement OR "phase encoding" OR "key management") (UK OR "Remote UK")

Pro tips

• Keep one alert per intent for clean results.

• Pair locations sensibly: London/Cambridge/Oxford + “Remote UK” catch most roles; add Bristol/Harwell/Edinburgh for deep-tech.

• Use -site: to mute noisy domains that flood your feed.

Prefer RSS? Tag/star items and export starred roles as CSV—perfect for a weekly planning pass in ChatGPT.

Step 4: Use ChatGPT as Your “Quantum Job Scout”

Alerts & RSS supply raw listings; ChatGPT turns them into a ranked shortlist with actions so you apply faster & better.

Reusable system prompt (edit to your targets):

System role: You are my Quantum Job Scout for UK roles. Parse pasted job listings (title, company, location, link, snippet), remove duplicates by company+title+location, and produce a ranked shortlist that matches my criteria. Then provide tailored actions for each role.

My criteria:
• Target clusters: Algorithms, Software/SDKs, QEC/Compiler/Runtime, Control/Experiment, Hardware (superconducting/ions/atoms/photonics/spins), Cryogenics/Microwave, Optics/Photonics, QKD/QRNG, PQC, Quantum-ML/Chemistry.
• Must-haves by cluster:
  - Algorithms: VQE/QAOA/simulation, resource estimates, error mitigation.
  - Software: Qiskit/Cirq/PennyLane/Q#/tket, cloud back-ends (Braket/Azure/IBM), job orchestration, hybrid workflows.
  - QEC/Compiler: surface/LDPC, decoders, logical qubits, transpilation, routing/scheduling, QIR/pulse-level.
  - Control/Experiment: optimal control, calibration automation, tomography, data acquisition, scripting (Python/LabVIEW).

2. Paste 10–30 items into ChatGPT with your Quantum Job Scout prompt.

3. Review the shortlist. Open the top 3–5 high-score roles.

4. Run the deep-dive prompt on your favourite; generate tailored CV bullets and a 120-word cover note.

5. Update your tracker & set deadlines.

6. Apply in one sitting—mirror 6–10 keywords naturally (platforms, protocols, metrics).

7. Schedule follow-ups immediately.

Consistency beats weekend blitzes.

Troubleshooting & Tuning

“I’m getting generic physics roles.”
Anchor the Boolean to quantum tokens (Qiskit, surface code, dilution fridge, Rydberg, QKD) and exclude -"radiation protection" or -"medical physics" if noisy.

“Everything is Senior/Principal.”
Include (Junior OR Associate OR "1–3 years") and exclude (Senior OR Principal OR Lead).

“Remote means global.”
Use ("Remote UK" OR "UK-based remote" OR "right to work in the UK") and exclude "anywhere".

“I only want hardware.”
Bias to transmon/ion/tweezers/photonic, dilution fridge, laser locking, SNSPD, and exclude software if it clutters results.

“I only want software/algorithms.”
Bias to Qiskit/Cirq/PennyLane, Braket/Azure/IBM, VQE/QAOA, and exclude cryogenics/laser.

“I care about security clearance.”
Add SC/DV or security clearance and include London/Bristol/Oxford/Cambridge/Harwell clusters.
