About the role
About Us QuantWare is building the world’s most powerful quantum processors to solve humanity's greatest challenges. We do this with our unique VIO™ technology, the only QPU architecture that breaks the hardware barriers that have held quantum computing back, unlocking the path to MegaQubit quantum processors. With VIO, we are paving the way for the hyper-scale quantum computers that will change the world. And delivering on that vision demands people who don’t shy away from tackling the hardest challenges of our time. That’s where you come in! As the Device Metrology Tool Development Lead , you will coordinate technical work for the research and development project focused on developing scalable metrology methods and automated tooling for high-throughput screening of quantum devices. In this role, you will balance project management with technical execution, providing the overarching technical breadth required to guide the tool's lifecycle from concept to deployment. What you'll be doing Drive Project Progress • Identify and manage the critical path of the project. • Prioritise and sequence tasks based on impact, resource availability, and technical dependencies. • Ensure the team moves forward in a focused, efficient, and aligned manner. Technical Oversight & Decision-Making • Synthesize inputs from various engineering and scientific domains to guide project direction and make key system-level trade-offs. • Leverage the deep technical expertise within the team to evaluate experimental strategies and validate outcomes. • Identify capability gaps within the project framework and help shape team growth or hiring strategies to meet milestones. Coordinate Team and Cross-Functional Efforts • Lead and support the technical project team day-to-day. • Work closely with experts across design, fabrication, and measurement disciplines to ensure a coherent and efficient R&D cycle. • Balance scientific rigor with pragmatic, milestone-driven progress. Anticipate and Manage Uncertainty • Identify technical risks, engineering bottlenecks, and resource constraints early. • Plan for potential failure modes and establish flexible contingencies. • Adapt project strategies dynamically as new data and technical insights emerge. External Stakeholder Management • Act as a primary technical interface and point of contact for external development partners and collaborators. Your Profile • Experience: 4+ years working as a project lead, systems engineer, technical program manager, or lead engineer in a deep-tech industry (e.g., quantum computing, semiconductor metrology tooling, aerospace, or complex hardware systems). • Education: Master’s degree or PhD in Physics, Engineering, or a related technical field. • Technical Breadth: Strong foundational understanding of the R&D lifecycle (design - produce - measure), with exposure to chip characterization, RF / microwave engineering, or cryogenic systems. You don't need to be the hands-on experimentalist, but you must speak their language. • Leadership Style: Comfortable taking initiative, navigating ambiguity, and making authoritative project decisions across cross-functional streams. • Mindset: A lucid thinker and strong communicator who is pragmatic and ruthlessly focused on delivering results over micropolishing features. Don't tick every box? Apply anyway! Research shows women often self-select out if they don't meet every requirement. Here's our take: nobody ticks every box. This is a description of our ideal candidate, not a filter. If most resonates and you're keen to learn the gaps, apply. We hire for trajectory, not perfection. What We Offer: At QuantWare, you’ll be part of a high-performing team of world-class experts in an ambitious, fast-moving environment. From day one,
