About Nord Quantique

At Nord Quantique, we strive to build impactful technology by relentlessly pushing our understanding of quantum science. We are an interdisciplinary team of scientists, engineers, innovators, builders, and enthusiasts on a mission to make quantum computing a reality. Our quantum processors are designed to reduce errors in quantum computation to facilitate long-term scaling toward fully-fledged quantum computers. We believe it is our responsibility to deliver this transformative technology for the greater good of society.

Located at the heart of the beautiful Eastern Townships region in the province of Quebec, Canada, we develop our technology in the vibrant quantum ecosystem of Sherbrooke. Leaning on more than a decade of vertical integration of quantum hardware, we are leveraging a comprehensive pool of quantum technology and micro-electronic infrastructure to deploy our quantum computing technology

Our Current Needs

Nord Quantique’s device R&D and early production efforts have been supported through internal work and partnerships at the Université de Sherbrooke’s 3iT cleanroom. This approach has proven very successful, allowing us to rapidly test different prototypes and develop process flows to unlock state-of-the-art performance, but it will not support the next phase of our roadmap.

We are now establishing full nanofabrication capability at C2

Mi, as one of only two partners engaged with C2

Mi and its new Quantum Lab (LINQ). Our objective is ambitious and clear: by 2028, C2

Mi must operate as a fully production-ready platform for Nord Quantique, delivering superconducting nanodevices that meet or exceed current 3iT performance, with an emphasis on reliably, repeatably, and at increased throughput.

To launch this critical initiative, we are seeking an experienced Integration and Nanofabrication Professional to become the first member of Nord Quantique’s C2

Mi Nanofabrication team. This individual will play a central role in bringing LINQ to operational readiness, beginning with hands-on involvement in tool acceptance, commissioning, and technology transfer from 3iT. Once stable processes of record are established, they will lead efforts to develop, benchmark, and optimize nanofabrication workflows to improve device yield, performance, and reliability, supporting the transition from R&D to early production.

Key Responsibilities

Lead tool acceptance (or validate if not lead), commissioning, and process bring-up for assigned cleanroom equipment, delivering stable baseline recipes with documented characterization.

Develop, integrate, benchmark, and optimize nanofabrication processes for superconducting devices, driving yield, performance, and manufacturability, with clear characterization and metrology plans.

Act as primary tool owner for multiple mission-critical cleanroom tools, ensuring uptime, PM discipline, process stability, and continuous improvement through data driven monitoring.

Support the transfer of fabrication processes developed at 3iT into production at C2

Mi using industry standard integration practices. This includes process documentation (PPAP), training, and qualification runs to ensure repeatable execution.

Work closely with C2

Mi staff to align technical goals, timelines, schedules, and infrastructure requirements.

Provide regular progress updates to Nord Quantique’s Head of Nanofabrication, proactively identifying risks and proposing mitigation strategies.

Contribute to the superconducting circuit fabrication roadmap by identifying performance and yield limiters, capability gaps, prioritized experiments and Cap Ex requirements needed to enable scalable manufacturing.

Success in this role depends not only on technical guidance, but on building trust, fostering open communication, and sustaining a shared sense of purpose both within the…
