Test Engineer

At OQC, we're building the quantum computers that will power the next generation of scientific discovery and commercial innovation. Our mission is to put quantum in the hands of humanity and we're looking for exceptional engineers to help us do it.

We are seeking an Assembly, Integration and Testing (AIT) Engineer to join our QPU Packaging team and support the production and scaling of OQC's quantum processors. This is a unique opportunity to work hands-on with advanced cryogenic hardware, helping assemble, integrate and test the systems that enable our quantum processing units to operate reliably at scale. The role is open to senior technician through engineer level candidates, depending on experience.

The RoleThe Assembly, Integration and Testing Engineer plays a key role in building and validating the hardware systems that house and support OQC's quantum processors. Working within the QPU packaging team, you will perform precision assembly and integration of cryogenic quantum hardware, supporting both prototype development and production activities.

You will collaborate with mechanical, RF, cryogenic and quantum engineers to ensure hardware is assembled to high standards of quality and repeatability. Through hands-on integration work and structured testing activities, you will help generate critical data that feeds directly into the development and scaling of OQC's quantum processing platforms.

What you'll be working on

Assemble: Perform precision assembly of quantum hardware and cryogenic packaging components.

Integrate: Support mechanical installations and subsystem integration activities within QPU packaging systems.

Test: Conduct integration and functional testing of cryogenic hardware and related assemblies.

Assure: Provide basic QA support, ensuring hardware is assembled and documented to defined engineering standards.

Report: Capture and communicate test results and performance data to engineering teams to support system development and scaling.
