Electronics Engineer

at  Nomad Atomics

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 with making 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.

REQUIREMENTS

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 types of things people applying for this role have done prior to Nomad are things like:

• BSc/Msc degree in electrical or electronics engineering, or equivalent
• 4+ years of related work experience in the industry
• Worked in a highly collaborative and fast-paced environment
• Eagerness to plan and drive forward complex electronics projects within a small team
• Demonstrated track record with electronics troubleshooting and SMT-soldering
• Advanced knowledge of schematic design and PCB layout in Altium Designer or a similar CAD package
• Experience with prototype manufacturing and debugging of 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

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.

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 a 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 team members at Nomad Atomics Australia and manufacturing partners for timely prototype and series production
• Debug and optimize subsystem and sensor performance in harsh environments
