The company’s unique ability to offer both hardware and software solutions, along with its commitment to build energy efficient datacenters and scalability, positions it to play a key role in the next wave of innovation, and in many strategic and sovereign industrial sectors.\nJoin Us at the Forefront of Quantum Computing Innovation\nDescription of the Team/Project\nOne of Quandela's priority is demonstrating fault tolerant quantum computing. We are widely known for our boson samplers, where one source can provide many photons, but for FTQC we will do spin-spin operations, mediated by photons with a dash of entanglement. So, instead of many photons from few sources, we need many photons from many spins. That means that someone has to ; every day, for months ; test many \"spin-photon sources\" together and determine whether the photons have adequate properties (single, indistinguishable, entangled), and other things. Where you will help, is making these measurements less tedious, by making some of it automated. For instance, by rotating waveplates by the right amount and in the right order at the right time. Upon your arrival the setup should be already built, but if we are behind schedule, you will probably give a hand on that too.\nYour Key Responsibilities\nWrite instrumentation code that automates part of the process of a tomography/g(2)/HOM/lifetime/coherence time setup, and/or whatever is needed to make this setup run at the moment of the internship.\nRequirements\nEducation & Background\nMaster’s degree (M2) in Physics or a related field\nTechnical Skills\nOptics (predominantly polarization understanding)\nQuantum Mechanics (understanding what the measurements mean would help)\nPython (primarily for instrumentation purposes, with limited data analysis)\nSoft Skills\nAutonomy\nWritten reporting\nLanguages\nFluent in either French or English, with at least a professional or scientific working proficiency in English\nBenefits\nSwile Card (meal vouchers) \n50% participation in transportation costs \nPossibility of remote work \nInternship Allowance between €1,200 and €1,400 per month \n1,5 days off per month, cumulative \nWhat we also offer\nA challenging and innovative work environment at the heart of quantum computing.\nA diverse and collaborative company culture.\nOpportunities for professional growth and skill development.\nAt Quandela, we believe that the strength of our team is the plurality of experiences, perspectives, and journeys. We are committed to building a respectful, inclusive, and welcoming work environment. All applications are welcome.","description_format":"text","description_chars":2734,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"master","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"French","level":"All levels","optional":false},{"language":"English","level":"Advanced (C1)","optional":false}]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"France","iso":"FR","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Quantum Science & Computing","Quantum Computing Hardware"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-11-04T15:44:26Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":0,"expected_fill_days":48,"reasons":["conf:4","velocity","win:early","comp:junior"],"computed_at":"2026-11-05T05:54:30Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":18816,"is_top_pay":false},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/quandela-software-hardware-integration-intern-h12027","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/quandela-software-hardware-integration-intern-h12027.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-05T23:35:19Z","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":4957,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-06T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"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":704},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=704"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fquandela-software-hardware-integration-intern-h12027"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"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%2Fquandela-software-hardware-integration-intern-h12027"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"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%2Fquandela-software-hardware-integration-intern-h12027"},{"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/quandela-software-hardware-integration-intern-h12027\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fquandela-software-hardware-integration-intern-h12027"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3752339}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"quandela.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3752339},"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.
