Quantum System Validation Engineer / Physicist at Nord Quantique, Sherbrooke, QC, Canada. A mid-level full time position in the Engineering team, listed under hardware engineering. Our current needs

As part of the creation of the Engineering Department, Nord Quantique is building a recent Quantum System Validation team responsible for validating that logical quantum performance is preserved as systems scale toward deployment-ready quantum computing platforms. We are seeking a highly motivated experimental physicist or engineer with experience in quantum systems, cryogenic experiments, and large-scale validation environments. Experience with superconducting quantum systems is an asset. The mission of this role is to execute and develop validation methodologies that characterize system-level performance, operational robustness, and long-term reliability of integrated quantum computing systems under realistic scaling constraints. More specifically, this individual will contribute to long-duration validation campaigns, characterize scaling-induced variability and emergent error sources, support system bring-up activities, and help establish the reliability foundations required for future utility-scale and deployment-ready quantum computing systems. Sought expertise and knowledge

Circuit QED and superconducting quantum systems Cryogenic experimental systems RF, microwave, and pulsed measurements of superconducting quantum systems Experimental automation and calibration workflows Data analysis and statistical interpretation System-level validation and performance characterization Reliability engineering or long-duration stability testing, an asset Python programming and version control best practices, an asset Advanced level in English,



to communicate with international team members Intermediate knowledge of French, an asset Nord Quantique is committed to the principles of equity, diversity, and inclusion in its training, workplaces, and activities. We encourage applications from diverse backgrounds and traditionally marginalized groups. Responsibilities

Define and execute system-level experimental validation campaigns Characterize logical and physical performance under scaling-induced variability and emergent error sources Perform long-duration stability and drift measurements Support integrated system bring-up and operational robustness testing Validate calibration workflows, boot-up sequencing, and hardware–software orchestration Contribute to failure analysis, root-cause investigations, and reliability qualification activities Develop automated validation and characterization workflows Analyze experimental data and communicate findings to cross-functional engineering and research teams Support development of deployment-readiness criteria, acceptance metrics, and performance-gating methodologies Requirements

PhD in electrical engineering, experimental physics, quantum engineering, systems engineering, or a related field Relevant experience in quantum technologies, superconducting quantum hardware, or complex cryogenic experimental systems Experience executing experimental campaigns in multidisciplinary environments Strong engineering mindset Strong experimental rigor and analytical thinking Systems-thinking mindset Team-oriented and collaborative Adaptable to evolving technical priorities Clear and concise technical communicator Comfortable operating in highly interdisciplinary environments
