Electronics Engineer

About the role

We are seeking a Senior Electronics Engineer to join the growing Quantum Sensing division at our laboratories in Sydney, Australia. This role will support the development of new quantum sensor prototypes designed for magnetic and inertial navigation.

As a Senior Electronics Engineer, you will provide technical leadership over hardware projects, taking responsibility for technical deliverables from the initial architecture, through field trials, all the way to product certification. The ideal candidate will be an accomplished analogue/mixed signal design engineer. Experience with RF and optoelectronic devices is also highly desirable, though not essential. As a senior member of the hardware team, you will be expected to mentor engineers and technicians and drive continuous improvement of our hardware development practices.

Reporting to the Lead Engineer (Hardware), the Senior Electronics Engineer will contribute to our rapidly growing efforts to deploy software-ruggedised quantum gravimeters, accelerometers, and magnetometers.

What you'll be doing:

• Your role will focus on demonstrating quantum sensing for Aerospace, Defence, geophysical exploration and Earth observation.
• Your primary goal will be architecting, miniaturising, and ruggedising bench-top prototypes for operation in the field and eventual productisation.
• You will manage the delivery of complex hardware prototypes, taking responsibility for the technical quality, performance, and reliability of the hardware.
• As an individual contributor, you will be a domain expert in analogue and mixed signal design.
• As a senior member of the sensing hardware team, you will be leading and mentoring hardware engineers and technicians.
• Other duties within the Employee's skills and experience, or with reasonable training.

Ideally you'll have:

• A Bachelors, Masters or PhD in Physics, Engineering or equivalent industry experience.
• A demonstrated track-record of delivering high-quality analogue and mixed signal designs at a Staff level. Note that as we have several open roles, we will also consider applicants at a Senior level.
• RF and optoelectronic experience is highly desirable, though not essential.
• R&D experience working concurrently with scientists and engineers.
• Experience taking designs from prototype to production, including design for manufacture and product certification.
• A strong desire to work with a world-leading team and a company that is fundamentally building the future of the quantum technology industry
