Jobbeschreibung

Description

We are seeking a skilled mechatronics or mechanical engineer to support the development and automation of our quantum sensing measurement systems. In this role, you will design and optimize high-stability mechanical components and motion assemblies that enable sub‑micron positioning and reproducible measurements. You will collaborate with engineering partners and vendors to bring the first commercial generation of our precision instruments to market, with a strong focus on system reliability, alignment repeatability, and integration into automated workflows.

Who we are

Founded in 2022 as a spin‑off of TU Munich, QD leverages quantum sensors to rapidly capture three‑dimensional current maps within multilayer chips. Our 30‑strong team of physicists, engineers, and data scientists works side by side with major semiconductor manufacturers, helping them in chip debugging and accelerating their yield analysis. Backed by top‑tier deep tech investors, semiconductor experts, and strategic public programs, we have ensured long‑term stability, shifting from breakthrough to scale – and shaping the next chapter in chip testing.

Why join Quantum Diamonds?

Picture this:

• A machine that catches what others miss – in milliseconds.
• Physics, data, and engineering are working hand in hand to build tools that matter.
• An international team, who loves solving hard problems and where knowledge flows fast.

Still unsure about why joining us?

• You’ll get to build a company together with a brilliant and welcoming team on a product that has never been done before.
• Our technology is the cutting edge of tomorrow, starting today and not in 10 years.
• You will work directly with major semiconductor companies from Day 1.
• You’ll get virtual shares and act on behalf of the entire company, beyond just your own team.
• You’ll be part of a high‑growth company backed by top‑tier investors.

Let’s make the invisible visible!

What will you do

• Design and develop high‑precision mechanical assemblies and positioning systems to enable stable and automated quantum sensing measurements.
• Identify and evaluate suitable components (e.g., motion stages, mounts, materials) for integration into our metrology setup.
• Conduct simulations, tolerance analysis, and mechanical testing to validate designs and ensure long‑term stability and reproducibility.
• Collaborate closely with optical engineers, electronics engineers, and software developers to ensure seamless integration of mechanical systems into the full measurement workflow.
• Communicate directly with manufacturing partners and suppliers to ensure that all components meet our performance and quality requirements.
• Document mechanical designs, test results, and integration guidelines in a clear and structured manner.

What is expected of you

• MSc and 4+ years in the industry or 2+ years in the industry and a PhD
• Minimum of 3 years of hands‑on experience in designing and developing mechanical systems for scientific or industrial applications
• Strong problem‑solving skills and ability to work in multidisciplinary teams.
• Strong foundation in precision mechanical design, including GD&T, metrology, and manufacturing processes.
• Familiar with FEA and simulation tools.
• Skilled in system error budgeting and problem‑solving.
• Excellent communication skills to collaborate effectively with peers, present findings, and contribute to technical reports.
• Experience in electrical engineering or microscopy is a strong plus.

Our benefits

• Competitive salary with equity participation.
• 30 days of paid vacation plus public holidays.
• Annual learning and development budget.
• Regular off‑sites and team events.
