At Nord Quantique, we strive to build impactful technology by relentlessly pushing our
understanding of quantum science. We are an interdisciplinary team of scientists,
engineers, innovators, builders, and enthusiasts on a mission to make quantum computing
a reality. Our quantum processors are designed to reduce errors in quantum computation
to facilitate long-term scaling toward fully-fledged quantum computers. We believe it is
our responsibility to deliver this transformative technology for the greater good of society.
Located at the heart of the beautiful Eastern Townships region in the province of Quebec,
Canada, we develop our technology in the vibrant quantum ecosystem of Sherbrooke,
Leaning on more than a decade of vertical integration of quantum hardware, we are
leveraging a comprehensive pool of quantum technology and micro-electronic
infrastructure to deploy our quantum computing technology.
Our current needs
We are scaling our activities alongside our quantum processors. To this end, we are
looking for an exceptional individual with a strong track record of experimental work in
quantum computing with superconducting circuits. This person will assist our team in
developing and scaling up our technology.
More specifically, this individual will lead experimental campaigns to push our hardware
capabilities and continuously deepen our understanding of the science behind it. The
person will develop new methods and hardware through a strong interaction with our
theory, design and experimental teams.
