AubervilliersOn-site

AI Summary

A Nanofabrication Process Technician executes wafer fabrication and production processes in a cleanroom, operating and maintaining nanofabrication equipment, monitoring quality, and contributing to throughput and equipment availability for quantum computing development.

About this role

Alice & Bob is developing the first universal, fault-tolerant quantum computer to solve the world’s hardest problems.
The quantum computer we envision building is based on a new kind of superconducting qubit: the Schrödinger cat qubit 🐈‍⬛. In comparison to other superconducting platforms, cat qubits have the astonishing ability to implement quantum error correction autonomously!
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!

About the role

As a Nanofabrication Process Technician, you will be a key contributor to Alice&Bob's fabrication capability. Working in a cutting-edge cleanroom, you will execute the fabrication processes that transform wafer designs into superconducting quantum circuits.

You will operate advanced semiconductor manufacturing equipment, monitor process quality, and contribute to maintaining a reliable and efficient production environment. Beyond running processes, you will take ownership of selected equipment, helping ensure its availability, performance, and continuous improvement.

Success in this role is measured by the ability to execute wafer fabrication safely, repeatably, and efficiently while contributing to the team's throughput and equipment availability objectives.

This position is ideal for someone who enjoys hands-on technical work, thrives in a highly disciplined environment, and takes pride in delivering high-quality results through rigor, precision, and teamwork.
