  • Lab experience: Experience with electrical and optical production lab equipment.

Desired Skills:

  • Management: proven experience in managing small production teams or sub-contractors.
  • Automatic production station: Experience in leading the design of automated testing systems for optical systems.
  • Engineering: Experience with supporting the NPI process for a multidisciplinary system.
  • Electronics: experience in testing and debugging electrical cards.
  • Fiber splicers: 1 year experience with fiber splicers,(PM splicers advantage).

Who We’re Looking For:

  • Team player: work together with our team of experts to achieve the company goals.
  • Curious & Self Driven: You possess a genuine interest in leading our production activities of Quantum Cryptography systems.
  • Balanced Skill Set: While the main focus is on system production you will also need to support NPI and production related sub-contractors.

Join us in our mission to advance the field of quantum encryption. Your expertise and leadership will be instrumental in guiding our path forward.
