About Us.

QURECA (Quantum Resources & Careers) has just launched the first global recruitment and training platform to develop the quantum workforce. QURECA was created to tackle the “Quantum bottleneck”. An example of this also being that many PhD students and graduates in the field struggle to apply their skillset and understand how it can assist in their career development.

The CEO and Founder of QURECA, Dr. Araceli Venegas-Gomez spent several years working for Airbus as an aerospace engineer, before falling in love with quantum mechanics and pursuing her PhD in Quantum Simulation. She has also more recently been titled the “quantum ambassador”, after winning the OSA Milton and Rosalind Chang Pivoting fellowship in 2019.

Webinar Content

In this webinar, Araceli Venegas-Gomez will walk you through her career and how QURECA was formed. We will take a dive into her life and look at how she switched careers from engineering to Quantum Physics and learn about her newly founded company, QURECA. She will then introduce the topic of quantum technologies worldwide, from the funding of the field to the importance of sci-comm! Finally, she will discuss career opportunities for people who want to be involved in the field of quantum technologies, and how her company will help with the quantum revolution.

Throughout the webinar, Araceli Venegas-Gomez will highlight the key benefits that the QURECA platform offers to job seekers. Some examples of these are:

●        Tailored career coaching: this is offered to anyone seeking a job in the quantum technologies sector. We get to know you and your ideal job, and do our best to match you to the most suited vacancy!

●        Unique recruitment service: We partner with companies in the quantum sector looking to hire graduates and PhD graduates.

●        Affiliation with field experts: QURECA affiliated with experts in the quantum field to create the most relevant online training courses. There are many benefits of enrolling in these as a student or recent graduate.

Finally, there will be a Q&A session where you will have the opportunity to put forward any questions you may have.

>From academia to industry the field of quantum technologies is highly collaborative as we enter the second quantum revolution. Considering a career in quantum technologies is not just for physicists - come and see how your expertise can be useful!  Whether you are looking for your ideal job, to enhance your skillset or to find out more about opportunities in quantum, this webinar has got you covered!
