Open Application in London

Since 2021 our team has been listed every year in the “Top 100 Startups worth watching” in the EE Times in 2021 and 2022, and our technology breakthroughs have been featured in The Telegraph, BBC and the New Statesman. Our founders are internationally renowned researchers from UCL and Oxford University who have pioneered the development of qubits and quantum computing architectures. Our chairman is the co-founder of Cadence and Synopsys, the two leading companies in the area of Electronic Design Automation. We’re backed by a team of top-tier investors, and we have recently closed our Series C funding of $160 million.

We bring together the brightest quantum engineers, integrated circuit (IC) engineers, quantum computing theoreticians and software engineers to create a unique, world-leading team, working together closely to maximise our combined expertise. Our collaborative and interdisciplinary culture is an ideal fit for anyone who thrives in a cutting-edge research and development environment focused on tackling big challenges and contributing to the development of scalable quantum computers based on silicon technology. Our team of 100+ is based across London, Oxford, San Sebastián and Sydney, with our primary hub in Islington (London).

At Quantum Motion, we are always keen to connect with talented individuals who are excited by the potential of quantum computing, even if there isn’t a current vacancy that aligns with your background. We are building a world-class team of scientists, engineers, and professionals working at the forefront of scalable quantum technology. Whether your expertise lies in quantum physics, engineering, software, product, operations or other areas - we welcome expressions of interest from individuals who are motivated by complex challenges and meaningful innovation.

If you don’t see a suitable role advertised today, sharing your details allows us to consider you for future opportunities as our team continues to grow. We regularly review open applications when new positions become available and will be in touch if there is a suitable vacancy.

What we look for:

• A strong interest in quantum technologies and our mission
• Relevant experience in your field of expertise
• Curiosity, collaboration, and a problem-solving mindset

How to apply: Please submit your CV along with a brief note outlining your areas of interest and the type of role you would like to be considered for. While we may not be able to respond to every application immediately, we genuinely value your interest in Quantum Motion and will be in touch should a suitable opportunity arise.

Join us as we shape the future of quantum computing.

Experience - Essentials

At Quantum Motion, we look for technically exceptional people who are motivated by solving genuinely hard problems at the frontier of science and engineering. Because quantum computing sits at the intersection of multiple disciplines, we value candidates who combine strong technical fundamentals with curiosity, adaptability and a collaborative mindset. Depending on the role, that might mean deep expertise in physics, semiconductor engineering, cryogenics, software, hardware systems, control engineering, algorithms, scalable infrastructure, as well as commercial, product, marketing, operations or finance disciplines that help translate deep technology into a scalable global business.

Experience - Desirable

We look for people who can think rigorously, work through ambiguity and contribute in fast-moving, highly interdisciplinary environments. Technical excellence matters, but so does the ability to communicate clearly, learn quickly and work effectively across teams. Most importantly, we look for people excited by the challenge of building scalable quantum computers capable of operating in standard data centres, and who want to help turn ambitious research into real-world technology.

Benefits

• Be part of a creative, world-leading team
• Competitive salary and share options scheme
• Choose your own laptop/kit
• Flexible working
