Applied Scientist (Computer Vision)

Applied Scientist – Computer Vision

At OQC, we aren’t just theorising about the future; we’re building it. Born from a philosophy of bold innovation, we’ve successfully transitioned quantum computing from an academic dream into a commercial reality. The most exciting thing is that we’re just getting started and we’ve recently closed our £260 million Series C funding round – the largest fundraise ever completed by a quantum computing company in Europe.

The Purpose

As an Applied Scientist specialising in Computer Vision, you'll turn complex scientific imagery into quantitative insights that help us build better quantum processors. Combining classical image processing with deep learning, you'll develop end-to-end analysis capabilities that transform microscopy and metrology data into reliable measurements for process monitoring, scientific investigation and decision-making.

The Role

Working across our nanofabrication and materials teams, you’ll contribute to the development of computer vision and scientific image-analysis solutions, taking ownership of the development, validation and quality of the solutions you deliver. 

You'll tackle problems spanning microscopic defect detection, segmentation and critical-dimension measurement, working with imagery from technologies including optical microscopy, SEM and AFM. You'll collaborate closely with scientists and domain
