Our current needs

Nord Quantique?s are now establishing full nanofabrication capability. To launch this critical initiative, we are seeking an experienced Process Integration Expert to join Nord Quantique?s growing C2Mi Nanofabrication team. This individual will contribute towards and execute Nord Quantique's technology transfer strategy between its R&D activities at 3iT and its manufacturing operations at C2Mi. Working hands-on in both cleanrooms, the successful candidate will ensure that fabrication processes are successfully transferred, qualified, and continuously improved while maintaining close technical alignment between Nord Quantique's nanofabrication teams.

Key Responsibilities

• Contribute to Nord Quantique?s technology transfer activities by supporting the transfer of nanofabrication processes developed at 3iT into the manufacturing environment at C2Mi, ensuring compatibility with C2Mi toolsets and process capabilities.
• Work hands-on in the 3iT cleanroom to develop and optimize fabrication recipes under the constraints of C2Mi equipment specifications.
• Ensure new process developments at 3iT can be efficiently incorporated into manufacturing at C2Mi.
• Develop, integrate, benchmark, and optimize nanofabrication processes for superconducting devices, driving yield, performance, and manufacturability.
• Balance multiple assignments and adapt to changing priorities while meeting deadlines.
• Generate detailed technical reports to support knowledge sharing and team decision-making.
• Provide regular progress updates to Nord Quantique?s Head of Nanofabrication, proactively identifying risks and proposing mitigation strategies

Success in this role will be measured by the successful transfer and qualification of fabrication processes at C2Mi, the establishment of robust process documentation and the ability to foster close technical collaboration across Nord Quantique's nanofabrication teams operating at both 3iT and C2Mi.

Education and experience requirements:

• Masters or PhD in Physics, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Quantum Information, or a related field.
• Minimum of 6 years of hands-on experience developing and optimizing cleanroom processes in Micro/Nanofabricatio
