Job description

Nanofabrication Intern M/F at Alice & Bob, Aubervilliers. A intern-level full time position in the Nanofabrication team, listed under hardware engineering.

We're a diverse team of 250+ brilliant minds from over 35 countries united by a single goal: to revolutionise computing with a practical fault-tolerant quantum machine. Are you ready to take on unprecedented challenges and contribute to revolutionising technology? Join us, and let's shape the future of quantum computing together!

P urpose of the role

Superconducting qubits have come a long way in coherence time, but there is still room for progress. A major limit is microwave dielectric loss from two-level systems (TLS), which depends heavily on how circuits are fabricated.

Starting in March 2027, you will join the Process Development Engineering Team for six months and work to extend the coherence time of our circuits by cutting material-related losses, optimizing cleaning steps and introducing deoxidation steps in the fabrication flow. Along the way, you will master advanced fabrication and characterization techniques to reach state-of-the-art performance.

- Half of transportation cost coverage (as per French law)

- Meal vouchers with Swile, as well as access to a fully equipped and regularly stocked kitchen
