Job Description

Senior Mechanical Integration Lead – Quantum Systems

We are seeking a highly accomplished Senior Mechanical Integration Lead to join our Quantum Systems Engineering team. In this pivotal role, you will be responsible for the holistic integration of mechanical systems with optical, electrical, and software subsystems, ensuring the highest standards of quantum performance and reliability. You will take end-to-end ownership of mechanical design and integration, collaborating closely with interdisciplinary teams in physics, optics, and control to deliver robust, precise, and manufacturable solutions.

Responsibilities:

  • Lead technical direction as part of a high-performance team of 5-10 mechanical engineers, fostering expertise and ownership of complex system integration projects.
  • Mentor engineers in best practices using CAD software (such as SolidWorks, AutoCAD, and SysML), driving continuous improvement and technical excellence.
  • Oversee the design and implementation of advanced thermal control systems (including liquid cooling) and vibration isolation mechanisms to ensure system stability and integrity during quantum operations.
  • Drive cross-functional collaboration with physics, optics, controls, and manufacturing groups, championing seamless subsystem integration and alignment throughout the development lifecycle.
  • Establish, implement, and maintain a robust PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) framework, ensuring proper documentation, change tracking, and digital thread management from concept through final production.
  • Engineer ultra-stable, tightly-toleranced assemblies required for precise optical and atomic positioning within sophisticated quantum hardware.

Qualifications:

  • M.S. or Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering or a closely related field, or equivalent experience in high-precision hardware development.
  • Deep expertise in thermal management, vibration isolation, and liquid cooling system design for advanced opto-mechanical environments.
  • Mastery of CAD tools (e.g., SolidWorks, Inventor), PLM processes, digital thread methodologies, and relevant analysis software.
  • At least 10 years of success in precision mechanical design for high-stability or opto-mechanical systems, ideally driving programs from initial concept through production.
  • Demonstrated leadership in navigating complex, multidisciplinary hardware development initiatives.

Desirable Skills:

  • Experience with atomic physics, quantum hardware architectures, or UHV opto-mechanical design highly preferred.
  • Join us to shape the future of quantum technology—leading mechanical innovations that enable world-class performance in next-generation systems.
