Software Integration 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 Software Integration Engineer to own the deployment, configuration, and operational readiness of Q-CTRL’s navigation and quantum sensing software on UAS platforms. This role is hands-on and execution focused, ensuring rapidly evolving software developed at HQ is correctly integrated, configured, tested, and run on real platforms in lab and field environments. You will work closely with systems and hardware engineers, and HQ software teams to bring up full sensor and navigation stacks, verify correct operation prior to flight, and manage data flow for analysis. As Q-CTRL’s quantum sensing technology matures, you will help establish robust deployment, testing, and release practices for hardware-in-the-loop and fielded systems. You will join a growing global engineering team, working as part of a small US-based group supporting defense and aerospace programs, and operating at the intersection of software, hardware, and field operations.
