Quantum Computing Jobs

• Oxford
• Hybrid
• Senior

Hands-on staff engineering role building the control plane that schedules and prioritises quantum programs, arbitrates exclusive hardware access, streams results and records everything that ran across a fleet of trapped-ion quantum computers. Work spans Rust services, PostgreSQL persistence, crash recovery and scheduling frameworks, with deep diagnosis of live-system failures.

• Senior

Owns supplier quality end to end, from auditing and qualifying new suppliers through incoming inspection, first article inspection and source release decisions. Leads the Supplier Corrective Action Request process, chairs the supplier quality position at review boards, and flows UK export-control and Cyber Essentials requirements down to suppliers. Around 25-50% travel for supplier visits and audits.

• Oxford
• Senior

Keeps a fleet of quantum computers running by root-causing mechanical, vacuum, cryogenic and thermal faults on live systems and prioritising fixes by uptime impact. Designs, prototypes and tests solutions to recurring failures, then writes assembly and upgrade instructions to roll changes into existing fleets, maintaining PLM records and ECRs so fixes carry into future builds.

SolidWorks

• London

A speculative general-interest application rather than a defined role, inviting candidates with an interest or experience in quantum technologies to submit details for future openings. Work spans quantum hardware and software, including quantum chemistry, AI, machine learning/QML, encryption, QNLP and algorithms, across London, Cambridge and Oxford.

Quantinuum

• Oxford
• On-site
• £39,424 – £47,779 pa
• Entry level
• Contract

Builds machine learning models and digital twins of quantum devices to study how scaling affects the control and stability of quantum operations. Models the physical and control architecture to identify design bottlenecks and optimisation strategies, using simulators as a testbed for engineering trade-offs. Works with academic teams, industrial partners and national labs within the QCI3 initiative.

• Abingdon
• Hybrid · 3 days in office
• £65,000 – £75,000 pa
• Senior

A technical leadership role in an established backend team building Modern C++ (C++17) software on Debian Linux that controls scientific instruments, coordinating pumps, valves, sensors and gauges. You own APIs used by the web GUI and customer scripts, write Python automated tests, run design reviews, and mentor less experienced engineers while working with scientists and product managers.
