At IQM, we build world-leading quantum computers for the well-being of humankind.
We design systems to tackle computational challenges beyond the practical limits of classical machines.
Our work sits at the edge of science and engineering.
It's complex, demanding, and deeply collaborative.
We turn deep research into reliable, full-stack systems that drive discoveries in fields like medicine, energy, and technology, reshaping how the world computes.
Join the team that gives quantum a heartbeat. The work
You will turn QPU fabrication and packaging into a repeatable, measurable production capability.
You'll scale up the production site and operations to the next level [this is vague, please feel free to edit!] ending up with multiplied volumes and predictable yield in a safe working culture.
You'll have a great viewpoint and opportunity to do this in collaboration with IQM's fabrication and quantum engineering experts for the benefit of the humankind
Put the right production metrics in place and use them to drive daily decisions, prioritisation, and continuous improvement •
