We are looking for a motivated Production Technician who possesses strong problem-solving skills and a passion for innovation. Candidates should have practical experience in semiconductor manufacturing processes and familiarity with photonics technology. A background in engineering or a related field is preferred, along with a commitment to quality and precision in a fast-paced environment.

About the job

At PsiQuantum, we are on a groundbreaking journey to create the first practical quantum computers, machines that can unlock the transformative potential the field has long promised. Established in 2016, our mission has been singular: to design and deploy million-qubit, fault-tolerant quantum systems.

Our quantum computers leverage the principles of quantum mechanics to tackle complex problems beyond the reach of even the most powerful supercomputers or AI systems. The implications of our work will extend across various sectors, including energy, pharmaceuticals, finance, agriculture, transportation, materials, and other critical industries.

Our innovative architecture is rooted in silicon photonics, allowing us to utilize advanced semiconductor manufacturing processes, partnering with leaders like GlobalFoundries, to produce billions of chips for telecommunications and consumer electronics. Photonics offers distinct advantages for scaling, such as immunity to heat and electromagnetic interference, and compatibility with existing cryogenic cooling and fiber-optic systems.

In 2024, PsiQuantum announced government-backed initiatives to facilitate the construction of our first utility-scale quantum computers in Brisbane, Australia, and Chicago, Illinois. These projects signify a growing acknowledgment that quantum computing will play a pivotal role in shaping the future, making it essential to accelerate our scaling efforts.

In addition to hardware, we are committed to developing the algorithms and software that will render these systems commercially viable. Our application, software, and industry teams collaborate closely with top Fortune 500 companies, including Lockheed Martin, Mercedes-Benz, Boehringer Ingelheim, and Mitsubishi Chemical, to tailor quantum solutions for tangible real-world outcomes.

Quantum computing represents not just an advancement of classical computing but a fundamental shift, paving the way for solving challenges that have remained insurmountable. The potential is vast, and we have a clear trajectory to realize it.

We invite you to be part of this exciting journey!
