About this job

At S[&]T we specialize in R&D solutions in the domains of High-Tech Industry, Defense & Security, Space & Science, and Environment & Sustainability. We live and breathe innovation, and are one of the few partners that collaborate with High-Tech organizations in optimizing performance through projects on-site or internally at S[&]T.

We are currently looking for a Senior Quantum Systems Engineerto join the team in Delft.

You will be working in the Quantum Technology department of projects we perform directly for clients or in close collaboration with universities and research centers for quantum computing and quantum internet. We address scientific challenges as well as engineering issues in a joint center of know-how with industrial partners. Our mission is to apply scientific knowledge and technology into higher TRL (Technology Readiness Level) applications, designing and building systems that leverage on quantum properties. Depending on the qubit technology and the applications, these systems could consist of optical setups (for example based on color centers) or electronic systems (e.g. computing stacks).

Senior Quantum Systems Engineer

Main responsibilities

You will be working toward designing and prototyping these systems, focusing on application toward quantum computing and bridging the gap between university research and commercial applications. You will use your Systems Engineering skills to perform project and system breakdown, estimating and scheduling engineering costs and planning. You will be considered at the main technical point of contact for the system being developed and will also take a proactive role in shaping the technological roadmap toward quantum computing. In that context, you will take a leading role and be our ambassador in the larger Dutch and European ecosystems to give shape to global developments. You will not be on your own. You will work with a team of content experts such as Scientists and System Engineers.

Requirements

• 10+ years of experience as a high-tech physics Systems Engineer, preferably in (semi) academic research or industry settings
