The posting

About the team

The Sensing Engineering team at Q-CTRL transforms quantum research into deployable technologies that address real-world problems. We design, build, and field-validate an array of quantum sensors that support our key products, including Ironestone Opal - our solution for GPS-denied navigation.

You don’t need a background in quantum to make an impact here. We value strong engineering fundamentals, a product mindset, and a drive to solve the hardest engineering problems in quantum sensing today.

About the role

At Q-CTRL, we’re developing advanced navigation and quantum sensing technologies designed to operate in real-world environments. We’re looking for a Senior Hardware Integration Technician to play a hands-on role in bringing these systems to life across UAS and other test platforms.

You’ll work closely with hardware, systems, and software engineers across the US and globally to assemble and integrate sensing and navigation systems, fabricate wiring and harnesses, install sensors and computing hardware, perform system checkout, troubleshoot hardware issues, and prepare equipment for laboratory, field, and flight operations. As our platforms mature, you’ll help improve build practices, documentation, configuration control, and installation repeatability while supporting cutting-edge defense and aerospace programs at the intersection of hardware, software, and real-world operations.

What you'll be doing

  • Perform hands-on assembly, installation, integration, modification, and maintenance of electronic hardware, sensors, computing systems, wiring, and associated equipment on UAS and other test platforms.
  • Fabricate and modify wiring harnesses, cables, connectors, mounts, and enclosures using engineering drawings, schematics, and work instructions.
  • Support hardware bring-up, troubleshooting, testing, and field demonstrations.
  • Use electronic test equipment such as multimeters, oscilloscopes, and power supplies to troubleshoot and resolve integration issues.
  • Maintain flight-ready and test-ready hardware, including inspections, repairs, configuration tracking, and documentation.
  • Work closely with other engineers to support reliable system integration and testing.
  • Travel periodically to support flight tests, field deployments, and customer demonstrations.

Ideally you'll have:

  • An Associate degree, technical certification, or equivalent hands-on experience in electronics, avionics, electrical technology, mechatronics, or a related field.
  • Hands-on experience integrating, troubleshooting, and maintaining electronic or electromechanical systems.
  • Strong skills in wiring, soldering, harness fabrication, and reading electrical schematics and technical drawings.
  • Experience integrating sensors, computers, communications equipment, and power systems.
  • Experience with electronic test equipment and hardware troubleshooting.
  • UAS, aviation, avionics, robotics, or autonomous systems experience is strongly preferred.
  • Familiarity with single-board computers, UAS avionics/autopilots, Linux, serial communications, CAN, Ethernet, GPS/GNSS, IMUs, or RF systems is a plus.
  • Experience supporting flight testing, field trials, or customer demonstrations is highly desirable.
  • Ability to work independently in lab and field environments with a focus on safe, quality execution.

This position may require access to information which is subject to the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR). All applicants must be 'U.S. persons' as defined in 22 CFR §120.62

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
