Quantum Success Engineer

Delft, Netherlands | Hybrid – 3 days onsite

€70,000–€80,000

Relocation & visa sponsorship available

I'm partnering with one of Europe's most exciting quantum technology scale-ups as they continue expanding their customer-facing quantum engineering team.

They're developing the control technology used by some of the world's leading quantum research teams, and they're now looking for a Quantum Success Engineer who can sit at the intersection of experimental quantum physics, electronics and customer problem-solving.

This isn't a traditional Customer Success role.

You'll be working directly with physicists, researchers and quantum engineers, helping them successfully integrate and use sophisticated quantum-control hardware within real experimental environments.

What you'll be doing

You'll support customers once they've adopted the technology, helping them get their experimental setups working effectively and solving technical challenges as they arise.

That will include:

Supporting the installation, setup and integration of quantum-control hardware
Troubleshooting experimental and technical issues with customers
Delivering technical training and helping researchers get productive quickly
Working with microwave/RF electronics and quantum experimental setups
Building strong relationships with highly technical customers
Understanding recurring customer problems and feeding that insight back into engineering and product teams
Becoming a trusted technical point of contact for research groups using the technology

What we're looking for

You'll ideally come from an experimental quantum physics background rather than purely theoretical research.

We're particularly interested in people with:

A PhD in Experimental Physics, ideally involving microwave or RF experiments

or

An MSc in Experimental Physics plus 1–2+ years of relevant industry experience

Alongside:

Hands-on experimental quantum computing / quantum hardware exposure
Microwave, RF, electronics or quantum-control experience
Python
Strong technical troubleshooting ability
Exposure to embedded systems or control electronics would be highly valuable
Excellent English communication skills

Previous experience working directly with customers isn't essential if you have the personality for it, but experience in Applications Engineering, Application Science, Technical Support, Customer Success, training or technical demonstrations would make you particularly relevant.

The person

This role suits someone who enjoys the science but doesn't necessarily want their entire career to remain behind a laboratory bench.

You might be the physicist in your group who enjoys explaining complicated problems.

The person colleagues naturally ask for help.

Someone who likes solving something technically difficult, but also enjoys working with the people trying to solve it.

You'll still be deeply connected to quantum technology, but you'll get far more exposure to customers, different experimental environments and the wider commercial quantum ecosystem.

Why consider it?

You'll join a rapidly scaling deep-tech organisation operating at the forefront of quantum computing, working alongside physicists, hardware engineers and software engineers building technology used by quantum researchers internationally.

The package also includes:

30 days' holiday + public holidays

14% employer pension contribution

Company equity

Hybrid working

Relocation support

Full visa sponsorship for international hires and their families

Interested, or know an experimental quantum physicist who would be unusually good with customers?

Drop me a message and I'll happily share more.
