About this role

Alice & Bob is developing the first universal, fault-tolerant quantum computer to solve the world’s hardest problems. The quantum computer we envision building is based on a new kind of superconducting qubit: the Schrödinger cat qubit 🐈‍⬛ . In comparison to other superconducting platforms, cat qubits have the astonishing ability to implement quantum error correction autonomously! We're a diverse team of 250+ brilliant minds from over 35 countries united by a single goal: to revolutionise computing with a practical fault-tolerant quantum machine. Are you ready to take on unprecedented challenges and contribute to revolutionising technology? Join us, and let's shape the future of quantum computing together! Purpose of the role As we ramp up production of our quantum chips, catching defects early is critical to scaling our yield. Join our nanofabrication team for a 5–6 month internship where you’ll get hands-on with our Automatic Optical Inspection (AOI) software — refining the pipelines that detect defects on real wafers, and helping prepare our process for the move to 4-inch wafer fabrication. You’ll work at the intersection of software and cleanroom process, with direct visibility into how your work shapes fab productivity. This internship will start in January 2027 ! Responsibilities: Improve existing AOI software by combining and optimizing current defect detection pipelines Experiment directly on chips and wafers in production Work to reduce overall AOI test time to boost fab productivity Improve detection efficiency, lowering false negative and false positive rates Interact with front-end process engineers to understand defect morphology and refine detection accordingly Prepare the AOI software for adaptation to 4-inch wafer fabrication Document and present your results: write software specifications, document findings, present to the nanofabrication community at Alice & Bob, and write a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) Requirements: Currently enrolled in a Master’s degree in Computer Science, Microtechnology, Electrical Engineering or Engineering Available for a 5–6 month internship , ideally starting in January 2027 Comfortable with numerical coding (Python, Julia, or similar) Some knowledge of cleanroom environments and microfabrication (semiconductors, superconductors) is plus Benefits: - 1 day off per month - Half of transportation cost coverage (as per French law) - Meal vouchers with Swile, as well as access to a fully equipped and regularly stocked kitchen Research shows that women might feel hesitant to apply for this job if they don't match 100% of the job requirements listed. This list is a guide, and we'd love to receive your application even if you think you're only a partial match. We are looking to build teams that innovate, not just tick boxes on a job spec. You will join of one of the most innovative startups in France at an early stage, to be part of a passionate and friendly team on its mission to build the first universal quantum computer! We love to share and learn from one another, so you will be certain to innovate, develop new ideas, and have the space to grow.
