Integration Lead

About Us

SBQuantum is a seed-stage startup at the forefront of magnetic sensing innovation. Our vision is to unlock the full potential of magnetic intelligence through our proprietary quantum diamond magnetometer technology.

By combining diamond-based quantum sensors with AI-driven algorithms, we transform complex magnetic field data into actionable, high-value insights. Our solutions enable accurate magnetic mapping and object detection in environments where traditional sensing technologies like GPS, radar, imagery, or sonar cannot perform.

From public safety and defence to space exploration, our multidisciplinary team of engineers, physicists, and data scientists is redefining how the world perceives magnetic signals, turning invisible complexity into clear, useful intelligence.

Why Join Us

We’re a small, fast-moving, and ambitious team building something truly transformative. At SBQuantum, you’ll have the opportunity to:

• Shape cutting-edge quantum sensing technology from the ground up.


• Collaborate with passionate experts across physics, data science, and engineering.


• Contribute directly to solving real-world challenges in public safety and aerospace.


• Work in a dynamic startup environment where your ideas and contributions have immediate impact.

Who We’re Looking For

We are looking for a proactive and driven team member with a strong startup mindset, capable of taking ownership of complex problems and navigating ambiguity. The ideal candidate is autonomous, rigorous, and solution-oriented, thrives in multidisciplinary teams, communicates effectively with internal and external partners, and demonstrates a strong commitment to learning and continuous improvement.

The Role

As Integration Lead, you will drive the end-to-end integration of our quantum sensor into real-world platforms, ensuring optimal performance and user experience. Leading a team of skilled software, robotics, and metrology members, you will translate cutting-edge technology into reliable, field-ready systems.

You will own the quality of the final integrated product, from design through validation, across platforms such as aircraft, drones, and portable systems. Your focus will be on ensuring robust and reliable performance in demanding operational environments.

In addition, you will define testing strategies, establish best practices, and set clear success metrics for integration programs, while mentoring team members to elevate overall testing rigor and consistency.

What You’ll Do

• Lead the integration design (mechanical, electrical, and software) of magnetometer systems, turning sensors into field-ready solutions.


• Deploying our technology on platforms such as drones, aircraft, and portable systems.


• Develop and execute comprehensive test plans for the products to ensure performance over multiple environmental and test conditions.


• Work closely with physicists, data scientists, and engineers to translate theory into design specifications and reliable, achievable real-world performance.


• Help define practical ways to implement client needs and technical features into the product.


• Implement quick proof-of-concept demonstrations to get rapid validated learnings.


• Collaborate with subcontractors and external partners to prototype, test and scale manufacturing of new concepts.


• Support and coordinate external test campaigns, ensuring clear objectives and usable results.


• Contribute to planning and resource coordination within the team.


• Manage the integration team by supporting its growth, mentoring team members and contributing to a strong engineering culture.

What We’re Looking For 

• Bachelor’s degree in robotics, electrical or mechanical engineering.


• Experience in sensor integrations (mechanical, electrical, firmware and software)


• Experience with drones and/or other aircraft integration


• Experience in quality control for product development


• Interest in understanding complex algorithms and how data quality impacts results


• Leadership experience, ideally in a start-up or dynamic environment.

Nice-to-Haves

• Experience with automatic quality assurance testing


• Previous startup experience.


• Advanced operations drone pilot certificate

What We Offer

• Competitive salary and meaningful equity.


• Opportunity to be an early team member shaping both the technology and the culture.


• Flexible, collaborative work environment.


• Direct impact: your work will shape breakthrough products in a cutting-edge field.


• Professional growth opportunities as we scale.

At SBQ, we are mission driven and collaborate with people independently of gender, race, beliefs, citizenship, orientation and value unconventional paths. Let's meet!
