Quandela scores A on the Alion truth index (A is best, E worst), measured over 12 open roles re-checked against its own hiring board: 0% look like ghost listings, 0% have gone stale and 8% are the same role posted again. Its roles close in a median of 48 days. It measures how much of what this employer publishes turns into a real, finite search - not the employer as a workplace. How the index is computed
Overview
Quandela is a deep-tech company and quantum hardware manufacturer specializing in full-stack photonic quantum computing. Headquartered in Massy (Paris-Saclay), France, the company was founded in 2017 as a spin-off from the Centre for Nanosciences and Nanotechnologies (C2N), a joint research laboratory of the CNRS and Paris-Saclay University. The company designs and builds quantum computers that process information using light (photons) rather than electronic superconducting circuits or trapped ions.
