Physics Intern (Field Deployment)
Confirmed on the employer's own hiring board on Oct 14, 2026. First seen by Alion on Oct 14, 2026.
Introduction
Do you want to be part of the team that revolutionizes resource exploration through quantum sensing?
Atomionics is working on quantum sensors based on atom-interferometry where atoms are cooled down to almost absolute zero using lasers. At such cold temperatures, the wave nature of atoms becomes prominent, which allows us to precisely measure the forces acting on them. This opens up a wide range of applications, including paving a path in the energy transition to zero-carbon and transforming resource exploration and geophysical surveying.
Headquartered in Singapore, Atomionics is now expanding its footprint to India, with our India operations anchored in the Amaravati Quantum Valley. As part of our India team, you will work closely with our Singapore headquarters, collaborating across borders while building deep tech capabilities locally, with our India team playing a critical role in field deployment of our Quantum Gravimeters.
At Atomionics, you will have the opportunity to collaborate with an interdisciplinary team of professionals dedicated to pioneering advancements in gravity measurement solutions within the rapidly growing field of quantum sensing. You will support efforts to improve our sensor's performance while helping make it compact and robust for field deployment. You will also play a supporting role in field trials and deployment of our Quantum Gravimeters.
Responsibilities
- Support field trials of atom-interferometry based Quantum Gravimeters, supporting on-site setup and troubleshooting
- Assist in the development of cold atom sensors by laser cooling atoms to almost absolute zero, performing atom interferometry experiments, etc.
- Conduct experimental testing to understand the environmental effects on quantum sensors
- Analyze experimental data and propose appropriate methods to refine the quantum sensors
About you
- A driven individual with creative problem-solving skills, an analytical mind, and persistence
- Curious and interested in learning about cold atom physics and push the limits of applying physics outside the laboratory environment
- Excited about interdisciplinary understanding of systems
- Willing to travel and support field deployment activities, including work in on-site or remote conditions
Even better if you have
- Experience in cold atom physics theory or experiments
- Experience working with lasers and optics
- Working knowledge of Python
What we can offer you
- A comprehensive immersion into the intricacies of deep tech research, encompassing product development and strategic aspects within a high-growth startup environment
- Industry experience for physicists - acquire insights and learn best practices in the fields of engineering and physics, ensuring a holistic overview
