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.
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 engineering and are excited to operate at the forefront of technology development. 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 in a cross-functional team, you’ll contribute to the embedded software development for our quantum sensors. These sensors are deployed in the field, and your work will help shape their performance, reliability, and usability.
You’ll collaborate on building and maintaining embedded Linux systems, Python applications and integrating them with electronic subsystems and communication interfaces. You’ll work closely with other software engineers, electronic engineers, and atomic physicists to develop and refine the full software stack, from kernel-level components to user-facing tools.
Responsibilities
- Design, develop, and optimise embedded software for quantum sensors, with a strong focus on firmware and driver development
- Contribute to the development of custom Linux drivers and kernel-level components
- Collaborate with electronic engineers and physicists to define system requirements and integration strategies
- Participate in testing, debugging, and performance tuning of embedded systems
- Follow and promote software development best practices, including version control, unit testing, code reviews, and documentation
- Assist in developing embedded UI components and system monitoring tools
Qualifications
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:
- Bachelor’s degree in computer science, Electrical Engineering, or related field (Master's preferred)
- 3+ years of experience in embedded software development, with a strong focus on Linux OS
- Expert-level proficiency in Python for embedded systems
- Experience with Linux driver development and kernel updates
- Solid understanding of communication protocols: UART, SPI, I2C, Ethernet, WIFI
- Experience with Xilinx SoC and FPGA platforms is a plus
- Experience writing and maintaining unit tests for embedded systems
- Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to work effectively in a collaborative team environment
- 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 in-person interaction with our tech team will be essential.
We offer a competitive salary, employee share option package and opportunities for professional growth and advancement
