● TALENT ONE MARKET INTELLIGENCE: Q-CTRL
🔥 TALENT LIQUIDITY:
Extremely low supply. There are fewer than 500 individuals globally with the specific combination of cold-atom expertise and industrial-grade signal processing capability.
📈 ALPHA SIGNAL:
Quantum sensing is the next ‘GPS-denied’ navigation standard. Securing a lead role here puts you at the center of a multi-billion dollar defense and aerospace pivot, ensuring your compensation is tied to critical national infrastructure rather than volatile SaaS cycles.

Official Role Description: Q-CTRL
About the team
Q-CTRL’s Quantum Sensing Research team performs basic and applied research in quantum sensing and quantum-enabled navigation. It is a highly dynamic team comprising approximately 30 specialists in theoretical and experimental atomic physics, cold-atom interferometry, navigation modeling, and modern Bayesian estimation and signal processing techniques.
The Quantum Sensing Research and Quantum Sensing Engineering teams work closely together, translating novel quantum sensing research into a useful capability and product. We are focussed on pushing the boundary of what is possible in quantum sensing and ensuring our R&D has real-world impact.
About the role
This role will provide critical technical leadership for experimental science work on Q-CTRL’s atom-interferometry based quantum sensors. This position will be focussed on reducing scientific risk across a broad range of novel techniques that aim to improve state-of-the art quantum sensor performance.
Additionally, you will contribute to the efficient and effective functioning of Q-CTRL. This will sometimes include helping out regardless of boundaries of responsibility to help us achieve our mission of making quantum technology useful.
