Paris, Île-de-France C12 Quantum Electronics Temps plein
Founded in 2020 and based in the heart of Paris, C12's mission is to be at the center of one of the biggest technological breakthroughs of the century and change the course of history by building a universal quantum computer. At C12, we believe that achieving a true breakthrough in quantum computing requires rethinking the fundamentals. That's why our founders—deeply rooted in academic and engineering excellence—have chosen carbon nanotubes as the building blocks of our quantum processors. This ultra-pure material dramatically reduces error rates, boosts performance, and minimizes hardware overhead—key ingredients for scalable, fault-tolerant quantum computing. By crafting a unique approach that scales, we aim to revolutionize quantum computing just as silicon transformed classical computing.
Since our founding, we've raised over €25 million in funding, published 11 scientific papers, and secured 8 patents. Today, our fast-growing team of 60, including 20 PhDs, has over 20 nationalities represented. We have our own cutting-edge lab spaces in Paris' historic Panthéon district, where scientists, engineers, and innovators work side-by-side to tackle some of the most exciting technical challenges of our time.
If you're passionate about shaping the future of quantum technology and want to make a real impact, C12 offers a unique environment to grow, learn, and innovate.
Your role at C12 Quantum Electronics : As part of the CNT engineering team at C12, you will help develop and operate our cryogenic instruments in order to electrically characterize our ultra-pure carbon nanotube-based devices both via DC electrical transport and RF spectroscopy. Your job will involve:
  • Operation and continuous improvement of the cryogenics setups
  • Install and set up new cryogenic instruments (cryostats, probe stations), from commissioning to wiring
  • Select the best electronic instruments to further increase our measurement bandwidth and enhance our device characterization feedback at low temperature
  • Write python scripts for automated high pace procedures
  • Write data analysis scripts to interpret our measurements and extract relevant metrics
  • Work with the software team to improve our proprietary measurement software and our internal database
