About Nomad

Nomad Atomics is on a mission to make the broad uptake of quantum sensing a reality and simultaneously push the limits of our field beyond what we think is possible. We are building the world’s most advanced fit-for-purpose quantum sensors to allow us to see the world like never before.

Our team is made up of leaders in the quantum sensing field. We believe the time for commercial quantum sensing has come, and we are determined to make it happen.

We are growing here at Nomad Atomics – FAST. We are searching for people who want to finally take the commercial sensing game into the modern era of technology.

Who you are

You are a voracious learner, and you love building things. You do not shy away from taking on the impossible. You apply these principles to all parts of science and engineering and are excited to operate at the forefront of technology development. You are an expert in your field and are ready to jump head first into the strange world of quantum sensing.

It’s ok if you don’t have all the skills yet to build a quantum sensor, because you will work with a global team of experts to fill in the gaps. You may have come from a large corporation but the idea of working in a fast-paced, highly iterative, and integrated team is exciting.

Your role

Working hand in hand with the co-founders, you’ll be responsible for the development of digital and analog circuits for our field sensors and will contribute to all electronics and optical sub-systems of Nomad’s quantum sensors. This is an exceptionally hands-on role requiring a broad skill set, including general circuit design and prototyping, RF system development and the integration FPGAs and SoC. (These things are being used in the field, and we are moving fast.)

You will be responsible for and deeply embedded in the end-to-end development and deployment of our sensors and will be engaged daily in tasks like:

- Work with a team of physicists and engineers to develop field ready quantum sensors

- Manage and grow our in-house electronics capabilities and team

- Design, prototype and optimize sensor subsystems and custom PCBs

- Work with manufacturing partners for timely prototype and series production

- Debug and optimize subsystem and sensor performance in harsh environments

- Guiding the future electronics pathway of Nomad Atomics

It’s not about specifically where you have come from nor what qualifications you have. What truly matters is that you are an impossibly fast learner. The skillset you will require in this role is:

- BSc/Msc degree in electrical or electronics engineering, or equivalent

- 3-6+ years of related work experience in the industry

- Experience in Low Noise Analog Circuit design

- Experience in RF and MW Circuit Design

- Able to work in a highly collaborative and fast-paced environment

- Eagerness to plan and drive forward complex electronics projects within a small team

- Demonstrated track record of electronic troubleshooting and SMT-soldering

- Experience with schematic design, PCB layout and prototyping for mixed-signal designs and, optimally, RF & Microwave systems

- Proficiency with Xilinx SoCs and Xilinx toolchain (e.g. Vivado), or similar

- Experience with power systems design, battery operated devices and EMC testing and device certification is beneficial

- Must have a current right to work in Australia

If you think you’re right for the role, but don’t have some of these skills, reach out – we’d love to talk anyway.

The role is full-time and based in Melbourne, Australia.

We have the flexibility to work from home from time to time, but mostly it’s getting your hands dirty in our shiny labs.

We offer a competitive salary, employee share option package and opportunities for professional growth and advancement.
