Alice & Bob is developing the first universal, fault-tolerant quantum computer to solve the world’s hardest problems.
The quantum computer we envision building is based on a new kind of superconducting qubit: the Schrödinger cat qubit 🐈‍⬛. In comparison to other superconducting platforms, cat qubits have the astonishing ability to implement quantum error correction autonomously!
We're a diverse team of 200+ brilliant minds from over 30 countries united by a single goal: to revolutionise computing with a practical fault-tolerant quantum machine. Are you ready to take on unprecedented challenges and contribute to revolutionising technology? Join us, and let's shape the future of quantum computing together!

Alice&Bob is developing a quantum computer based on cat qubits. While already operating cryostats in its existing site, Alice&Bob is stepping up by building a new facility in Ile de France (construction started, start of operation end 2025), to increase the “test and operation” capacity of Quantum Processor Units. This new facility will allow to speed up the design iteration cycle.

As part of the Quantum Hardware and Infrastructure department, the Hardware Platform Operation (HPO) team is created to operate the cryoplatform. This platform represents a major investment: HPO team will focus 100% on operational excellence and quality, to ensure the highest availability rate.

The Hardware Platform Operation team is at the intersection of hardware quantum characterization and operations, cryogenic systems, RF control electronics, and industrialization.

Responsibilities

    Working inside the Hardware Platform Operation team, alongside other engineers and technicians, this position’s role is in charge for the assembly, maintenance, and troubleshooting of different RF and electronics instrument and cabling, as well as mechanical racks, used in our quantum computer installations.

    For this position you will:

  • implement new cabling schemes of instruments inside the racks
  • implement new instruments into the rack
  • Modify / reorganize the rack structure to optimize the operations
  • Perform the daily monitoring, testing, and maintenance of control electronics
  • Run acceptance test on instruments and cables, following established procedures.
  • Produce test reports
  • Assist in debugging potential issues within cabling / instrumentation / network , as well as communicate with other users on the potential root cause(s)
  • Assist in stock management for all parts needed in the implementation of the racks
  • Interface with different team including quantum experimentalist, hardware, infrastructure, purchasing, IT,…

Requirements

    Minimum Qualifications/Requirements:

  • Bachelor’s degree or technical certification in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineer, RF Engineering, or related field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • Competence in interpreting electrical schematics and bills of materials.
  • Experience with assembly of precision mechanical, electrical, and electronic prototypes.
  • Excellent communication and teamwork skills, with a proactive and positive attitude.

    • Good to have:

  • Business proficiency in English is preferred
  • Experience in assembling and configuring instrumentation racks, including RF signal wiring, coaxial wiring, is a plus
  • Experience of working with electrical test equipment (oscilloscope, VNA, spectrum analyzer, multimeter, etc.) is a plus
  • Knowledge of KICAD is a plus
Benefits:
- Our success is your success: own it with our BSPCE plan
- Direct IP Compensation: Earn substantial bonuses for driving the core patents that define our quantum architecture.
- Flexible remote policy, up to 40 % a month
- A Parental plan including additional benefits such as crèche support or additional days-off to take care of under 12 years old children
- Subsidized membership with Urban Sports Club
- Mental health support with moka.care
- 25-day vacation policy (as per French law) + RTT
- Half of transportation cost coverage (as per French law), or yearly allowance for the die-hard bicycle users
- Competitive health coverage, with Alan.
- Meal vouchers with Swile, as well as access to a fully equipped and regularly stocked kitchen
