Alice&Bob is taking up the challenge of building a universal quantum computer, from the first building block to the whole machine. We are an ambitious team pursuing the dream of harnessing the computational power of quantum mechanics. Come and join us on this extraordinary quest!

The company is located in Paris, France. The quantum computer we envision building is based on a new kind of superconducting qubit developed by Alice & Bob and its academic partners : the Schrödinger cat qubit.

We are looking for a Nanofab tool integration and process engineer to contribute to the set-up of our R&D nanofabrication facility.

Role

As a Nanofabrication Tool integration and process Engineer, you will be in charge of the acquisition and set-up of process equipment in our new cleanroom, covering the different steps of the process (sputtering, ebeam evaporation, ICP etching ...).

The crux of building a Universal Quantum Computer is the quality of its individual components, the qubits. In this context, you will have to interact with the rest of the nanofab team to master advanced fabrication and characterization techniques to reach state-of-the-art

performances.

The job implies frequent trips to partner technology platforms (Saclay, Paris), to equipment suppliers, and work in cleanroom

Responsabilities

• Establish initial specification for the tools (working in close collaboration with the other members of Nanofab team, and our Procurement Manager)
• Perform review of the market (including organizing tests with suppliers if applicable)
• Contribute to the final selection
• Organize factory acceptance test, installation, hook-up phase and site acceptance test (if applicable)
• Establish process and documentation, to put the equipment "in production at Alice & Bob

Requirements

• A phd or master's degree in nanofabrication, physical characterization, semiconductors or equivalent
• Several years (>6 years) of cleanroom experience or material characterization techniques
• Significative experience in buying/installation nanofabrication tools
• Significative experience in nanofabrication process set up / process transfer

Nice to have:

• Significative experience with optical lithography, electron beam lithography, wet and dry chemical etching, thin film deposition
