Quantum Scientist

Position: Quantum Scientist Beware of fraudulent job offers and postings Technergetics will never extend an offer of employment without a thorough interview process involving face-to-face interviews either in-person or a virtual Teams meeting from an official Technergetics email address ( techngs.com ). If you receive any correspondence from an email other than techngs.com , it is a scam. Pre-interview code testing is only administered through the Codility platform. Opportunity Overview: Do you want to contribute to developing quantum technology, the next paradigm of computing and communication? Is learning a life-long pursuit for you? Traditional corporate culture (no sea of office cubicles here) not really your thing? Then this may be the place for you. Our Quantum Researchers work with teammates in the Mohawk Valley and across the country to deliver cutting-edge products to our customers. As a Quantum Scientist, you will work with peers and mentors to learn and evolve as a task master and leader. Position Details Salary Range: $80,000-$120,000 annually.
