Junior Mechanical Engineer

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 Mechanical Engineer to join our Quantum Sensing division. Working closely with a world-leading team of physicists and engineers, you will be hands-on with the design, assembly, and testing of some of the world’s most sensitive gravimeters, magnetometers and laser systems. In this role you’ll be a part of the mechanical and optics team, and will assist in the design and testing of our quantum sensing technology. You will work closely with a team of engineers, physicists and technicians to support our technology development and bring our quantum technology out of the lab and into the field.  You will join a growing team focused on quantum sensing for defence and aerospace, and work with experts in fields such as cold-atom interferometry, magnetometry, and inertial navigation to develop state-of-the-art technology.
