Superconducting Circuits Industrialization Internship

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 are at the forefront of the quantum race, competing with tech giants such as Google or IBM. We are growing fast, securing 30 million USD of funding in 2022 to develop our unique technology.

We are 100 and counting, between physicists, PhDs, engineers and experienced business professionals, all united in reaching our ambitious goal. If you are an explorer, craving to challenge yourself and make quantum computing come true, come and join us!

We are looking for a motivated and talented Industrialization Intern to join our team for a 6-month internship starting in January/February 2025 and ending in June/July 2025. This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to the industrialization of quantum computing hardware by supporting the development and optimization of data acquisition and analysis tools.

As part of our industrialization team, you will collaborate closely with the nanofabrication, infrastructure & screening, software, and product teams to analyze data from our nanofabrication and measurement processes. Your insights will directly impact the development of our quantum devices.

• Collaborate with the Industrialization Engineer responsible for nanofabrication data analysis and interpretation.
• Work with cross-functional teams (nanofabrication, infrastructure & screening, microwave, software) to ensure the accuracy of generated data.
• Assist in developing and documenting standard operating procedures (SOPs) and process workflows.
• Contribute to the implementation of automation solutions, such as a Manufacturing Execution System (MES).
• Implement data analysis routines and prepare weekly reports on findings and progress.
• Support the management of foundry service collaborations to validate devices fabricated by external partners.

• Currently pursuing a degree in engineering (final year) or a master’s program (2nd year) in General Engineering, Physics, or a related field.
• Strong interest in data analysis, nanofabrication and characterization.
• Familiarity with data analysis tools and software such as JMP and Python.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Eagerness to learn and adapt in a fast-paced, cutting-edge environment.
• Knowledge of industrialization processes, lean manufacturing, and process optimization techniques is a plus.
• Hands-on experience with manufacturing equipment and processes is an asset.

Research shows that women might feel hesitant to apply for this job if they don’t match 100% of the job requirements listed. This list is a guide, and we’d love to receive your application even if you think you’re only a partial match. We are looking to build teams that innovate, not just tick boxes on a job spec.

You will join of one of the most innovative startups in France at an early stage, to be part of a passionate and friendly team on its mission to build the first universal quantum computer!

We love to share and learn from one another, so you will be certain to innovate, develop new ideas, and have the space to grow.
