Position: Quantum Laboratory Technician

Beware of fraudulent job offers and postings!
Technergetics will never extend an offer of employment without a thorough interview process involving face-to-face interviews either in-person or via a virtual Teams meeting from an official Technergetics email address (@techngs.com). If you receive any correspondence from an email other than techngs.com, it is a scam. Pre-interview code testing is only administered through the Codility platform. We will not send out questionnaires or testing through any other platform/site prior to a first interview.

Opportunity Overview:

Do you want to contribute to developing quantum technology, the next paradigm of computing and communication? Is lifelong learning important to you? If traditional corporate culture (no sea of office cubicles here) isn't your thing, then this may be the place for you. Our Quantum Researchers collaborate with teammates in the Mohawk Valley and across the country to deliver cutting-edge products. As a Quantum Laboratory Technician, you will work with peers and mentors to learn, grow, and lead. Get excited to join and stay motivated!
