Senior Electronics Technician
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 Technician to join the growing Quantum Sensing division at our laboratories in Sydney, Australia. This role will support the development of new quantum sensor prototypes and products.
As a Senior Electronics Technician, you will provide hands-on technical expertise in the assembly, test, and troubleshooting of advanced electronic systems. You will play a key role in supporting engineers and scientists across hardware and research teams by building and maintaining prototype systems, ensuring high-quality hardware and documentation. The ideal candidate will be an accomplished technician with extensive experience in R&D environments. Experience with precision electronics, RF, or optoelectronics is highly desirable, though not essential. As a senior member of the team, you may also mentor junior technicians and contribute to the continuous improvement of our laboratory practices.
Reporting to the Lead Engineer (Hardware), the Senior Electronics Technician will contribute to our rapidly growing efforts to deploy software-ruggedised quantum gravimeters, accelerometers, and magnetometers.
