Q-CTRL – Senior Electronics Engineer

  • Anywhere

● TALENT ONE MARKET INTELLIGENCE: Q-CTRL

🔥 TALENT LIQUIDITY:
Extremely tight. The intersection of high-precision analog design and quantum-ready ruggedization is a niche with very few qualified practitioners.

📈 ALPHA SIGNAL:
This role places you at the center of the next generation of navigation tech. By mastering quantum-ruggedized hardware, you become a ‘must-have’ asset for the defense and aerospace sectors, effectively insulating your mortgage payments against standard tech-sector volatility.

EST. COMPENSATION
$160k – $200k Base + Equity Participation
SECTOR HEAT
85.9/100
CANDIDATE PROTOCOL: Focus on your ability to bridge the gap between high-speed analog signal processing and field-ruggedization. Your moat is the ability to make sensitive hardware survive in non-lab environments.

Official Role Description: Q-CTRL

About the team
The Sensing Engineering team at Q-CTRL transforms quantum research into deployable technologies that address real-world problems. We design, build, and field-validate an array of quantum sensors that support our key products, including Ironestone Opal – our solution for GPS-denied navigation.   

You don’t need a background in quantum to make an impact here. We value strong engineering fundamentals, a product mindset, and a drive to solve the hardest engineering problems in quantum sensing today.

About the role
We are seeking a Senior Electronics Engineer to join the growing Quantum Sensing division at our laboratories in Sydney, Australia. This role will support the development of new quantum sensor prototypes designed for magnetic and inertial navigation.
As a Senior Electronics Engineer, you will provide technical leadership over hardware projects, taking responsibility for technical deliverables from the initial architecture to fieldable prototypes. The ideal candidate will be an accomplished analogue/mixed signal design engineer. Experience with optoelectronic devices is also desirable, though not essential. As a senior member of the hardware team, you will be expected to mentor engineers and technicians and drive continuous improvement of our hardware development practices.
Reporting to the Lead Engineer (Hardware), the Senior Electronics Engineer will contribute to our rapidly growing efforts to deploy software-ruggedised quantum gravimeters, accelerometers, and magnetometers.
