Mechatronic Engineering Internship H/F

Posted 3 months ago

OfficeParis & Aubervilliers
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 200+ brilliant minds from over 30 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!

Are you looking for an internship where you can apply your mechanical engineering skills to real, cutting-edge systems?
 
As a Mechatronic Engineering Intern, you will work on multidisciplinary projects that combine design, manufacturing, assembly, and integration in a highly technical environment. This role is ideal for someone with a strong mechanical foundation who is also curious about electronics, instrumentation, and test activities.
 
Join Alice & Bob and contribute to the development of advanced technologies at the frontier of innovation.
 
In this role, you will primarily support mechanical design activities. You will work on new developments and specific high-tech projects involving cryogenic, RF, and electronic applications, with opportunities to assist in validation and testing mechanical and electronic systems.
 
Through this work, you will help turn complex concepts into robust, practical solutions that support Alice & Bob’s mission to build breakthrough quantum technologies. 
### Responsibilities:
At Alice & Bob you will:
 
• Do the mechanical design (3D, 2D) and sizing, including thermal and structural constraints in demanding environments
• Participate in design for manufacturing, including parts technical drawing, material selection, machining constraints, heat and surface treatments
• Follow parts manufacturing, reception, inspection, and assembly
• Assist with the integration of electronic or RF-related components into mechanical assemblies
• Participate in the setup of test benches and experimental configurations
• Support testing, qualification, troubleshooting, and data acquisition on multidisciplinary systems
• Draft assembly procedures, technical documentation, and system/interface diagrams
### Requirements:
Hard Skills:
  • Final year of Master's degree in Engineering in Mechanical Design or Mechatronic
  • Proficiency in SolidWorks (3D modelling and 2D drawings)
  • Good understanding of manufacturing processes, metallic materials, machining, and assembly
  • Good knowledge of electronics, instrumentation, or mechatronic systems 
  • Familiarity with test benches, sensors, wiring, connectors is a plus
  •  
    Soft Skills:
  • Strong hands-on mindset
  • Organized, autonomous, and detail-oriented
  • Curious and willing to work across disciplines
  • Problem-solving mindset
  • Fluent in English
  • 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
