Quantum Internship: Research & Projects (3–6 months) in London

As part of our mission to expand our world class team at Quantinuum, we look for talented and high potential individuals to join us in internship positions. These positions normally have a duration between 3-6 months, with the majority focused on specific projects / client collaborations.

Ideally you will already have a good understanding of the interest areas from a further education perspective, either by completing a masters or Ph.D. We are now planning for our 2026 intake. This is your opportunity to join our talent pool for future internships.

This is your opportunity to register your details and interest areas with us. We do not have a formal summer internship programme; interns are sought on an ad‑hoc basis throughout the year. We have a number of case studies where employees started with us in internship positions and progressed into full‑time permanent employees, either at the end of their internship or after returning to and completing further education.

Once you register your interest with us, we will keep you on file (only if we have your permission) and contact you in the future with any matching internship roles. Please understand it may take some time for us to contact you for a role.

We are growing in all areas of Quantinuum. Our focus is in the areas of quantum software development, chemistry, machine learning, algorithms, Cybersecurity / encryption and hardware.

What is in it for you? Working alongside a highly talented team, with leading names in the quantum computing industry.
