Our thesis is that you have to build a full scale machine to learn what the actual hard parts are, just like you have to build a full scale rocket before the first launch. We’re looking for a few visionary scientists and engineers to join our team, to move fast and blow stuff up.\nBased in Princeton, NJ our founding physics team has decades of combined research experience at leading academic and industry labs including Princeton, Harvard, Yale, MIT and Google Quantum. Our approach is based on neutral atom qubit technology developed in research labs at Princeton by the founding team. Our scalable systems are composed of manufacturable sub-modules, controlled by state-of-the-art CMOS optoelectronics, and designed around a unique computer architecture.\nIf you’re excited to build something that’s never existed before at the cutting edge of physics and engineering-together with an awesome team with deep technical expertise-come build with us!\nAbout the role\nAs a Logiqal Quantum Hardware Intern, you’ll work directly with our physicists and engineers to help build our next-generation quantum computer. Intern projects are designed to be technically substantial, contributing directly to our optical, mechanical, atomic physics, or software systems.\nWe welcome applicants from physics, electrical engineering, computer science, optics, mechanical engineering, applied math, and related fields. If you’re curious, driven, and love building hard things, we want to hear from you. You would be a particularly strong fit if you have experience in one or more of:\nAtomic physics, optics, or laser physics\n\nExperimental data acquisition and analysis\n\nProgramming (Python/C++) and computational physics\n\nMechanical engineering\n\nas well as general strengths in:\nAnalytical and problem-solving skills\n\nAbility to design, build, debug, and iterate quickly\n\nWorking in a fast-paced, experimental environment\n\nCuriosity, initiative, and a love of building real hardware\n\nThis role is open to current students at the undergraduate, MS or PhD level at US-based institutions. This internship is on-site at our lab near Princeton, New Jersey. The compensation band for this role is $30-$50/hour, with an additional housing stipend if you are relocating to the Princeton area.\nApplications will be reviewed on a rolling basis, and those received before Nov. 19 are guaranteed full consideration.","description_format":"text","description_chars":2548,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"phd","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Quantum Science & Computing","Quantum Computing Hardware"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-11-04T23:24:54Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":7,"expected_fill_days":30,"reasons":["conf:0","win:early","comp:junior"],"computed_at":"2026-11-12T10:38:37Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":100000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/logiqal-quantum-hardware-intern","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/logiqal-quantum-hardware-intern.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-13T12:03:21Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":24260,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-14T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":679494},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=679494"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Flogiqal-quantum-hardware-intern"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"free","price":{"credits":0,"usd":0},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Flogiqal-quantum-hardware-intern"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Flogiqal-quantum-hardware-intern"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/logiqal-quantum-hardware-intern\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Flogiqal-quantum-hardware-intern"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3776295}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"logiqal.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3776295},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
