Quantum Computing Jobs

• Warrington
• £73,300 – £86,100 pa
• Senior

Translate computational tasks into abstract quantum-algorithm specifications, analyse asymptotic performance, and define problem instances beyond classical reach. Work with the Compilation team on explicit implementations and resource estimates, and lead research programs with industrial and academic partners across fault-tolerant photonic quantum computing.

• Warrington
• £50,000 – £57,000 pa
• Mid-level

Designs RF and high-speed electronics for controlling and reading out quantum photonic hardware, including electro-optic modulator drivers, SNSPD readout and low-latency control systems. Works alongside photonics and quantum teams, with FPGA-based design, debugging and lab measurement of complex cryogenic hardware.

• Oxford
• Senior

Join the Runtime Software team to build the real-time control system that turns quantum hardware into a working computer. You'll develop Rust libraries and abstractions over real-time control devices, driving ions with nanosecond precision, and work closely with experimental scientists and compiler teams.

• Oxford
• Hybrid · 3 days in office
• Senior

Integrate all features needed to operate quantum computers into complex multi-layer chips, taking designs from requirements through layout and tape-out. Work closely with scientists and fabrication engineers on ion trapping chips, routing metal tracks and interfacing with photonics and CMOS, while owning project delivery independently.

• Kidlington
• Hybrid
• Permanent

Integrate RF, optical, electronic and third-party devices into complex quantum computing systems, translating system requirements into practical architectures, interconnects and control schemes. Perform bring-up, commissioning, fault isolation and EMI/EMC troubleshooting, and define verification and validation test plans. Work within multi-disciplinary teams of physicists, engineers and technicians.

• London
• £44,861 – £55,099 pa
• Entry level
• Contract

Postdoctoral role developing and applying tensor network methods to quantum and classical systems, deploying them on both classical and quantum hardware. Based in Prof Andrew Green's group at the London Centre for Nano and Quantum, with collaboration across UK institutions and international partners, plus research secondments. Fixed-term for two years.

• Kidlington
• Hybrid
• Mid-level
• Permanent

Designs, analyses and implements fault-tolerant architectures for scalable quantum computation, developing error-correcting codes, decoders and fault-tolerant gate constructions tailored to neutral atom hardware. Works with hardware, control and compiler teams to model noise, optimise syndrome extraction and define logical performance metrics, bridging QEC theory and experimental implementation.
