A senior research position at Q-CTRL in Sydney, focused on experimental work with atom-interferometry quantum sensors. The scientist provides technical leadership, examining and de-risking new techniques intended to improve sensor performance, and works alongside a separate R&D group that turns sensing research into products. The posting describes a roughly 30-person team spanning atomic physics, cold-atom interferometry, navigation modelling and Bayesian estimation. It asks for experimental atomic physics depth and a readiness to contribute beyond strict role boundaries.
