🚀 Lead CAD/PDM Systems Engineer

Description

We are seeking a skilled mechatronics or mechanical engineer to support the development and automation of our quantum sensing measurement systems. In this role, you will design and optimize high-stability mechanical components and motion assemblies that enable sub-micron positioning and reproducible measurements. You will collaborate with engineering partners and vendors to bring the first commercial generation of our precision instruments to market, with a strong focus on system reliability, alignment repeatability, and integration into automated workflows.

What is expected of you

• MSc degree with 5+ years of industry experience, or PhD with at least 3 years of industry experience.
• Minimum of 3 years of hands-on experience as a PDM key user or PDM administrator.
• Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work effectively in multidisciplinary teams.
• Structured working style with the ability to develop and manage modular, structured BOMs.
• Proficient in the use of CAD systems.
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to collaborate across teams and serve as a trainer during PDM system rollout.
• First experience in a leadership role is a strong plus.

Our benefits

• Competitive salary with equity participation.
• 30 days of paid vacation plus public holidays.
• Company-sponsored Wellpass membership.
• Annual learning and development budget.
• Regular off-sites and team events.

Who we are

Founded in 2022 as a spin-off of TU Munich, QD leverages quantum sensors to rapidly capture three-dimensional current maps within multi-layer chips. Our 30-strong team of physicists, engineers, and data scientists works side by side with major semiconductor manufacturers, helping them in chip debugging and accelerating their yield analysis. Backed by top-tier deep tech investors, semiconductor experts, and strategic public programs, we have ensured long-term stability, shifting from breakthrough to scale - and shaping the next chapter in chip testing.
