Partners

SBQuantum was the first company to grow out of Université de Sherbrooke’s Institut Quantique. Since then we have been excited to have been accepted into some of Canada’s leading incubator programmes as well as to have worked with the government to form part of Canada’s quantum strategy. A founding member of the QIC, SBQuantum is proud to be at the forefront of quantum sensing and we are keen to expand our partnerships. Please do not hesitate to get in touch.

Our Team

David Roy-Guay

Co-Founder, CEO

David co-founded SB Quantum following his graduate studies at Institut Quantique to transition the amazing diamond compass technology from the labs to the field. Nothing is impossible for David, driven by exploring new market opportunities for the compass and bouncing the craziest ideas off the teammembers. His recklessness is part of the journey, both in business and hobbies, sometimes causing bruises and good laughs.

Rachel Taylor

Co-Founder, COO

Rachel rolled into SBQuantum as a co-founder following her MBA at Rotman School of Management. Here she was on the Dean’s List for her graduating class and was awarded four awards for academic achievement and leadership. Previously she specialized in innovation at a London advertising agency designing location data strategies for multi-national organisation. If in doubt, you can find her outside, swing dancing, hiking or doing anything else active and preferably with a view.

Guillaume Duclos-Cianci

Lead software developer

Guillaume is a quantum information scientist and full stack developer with ten years of combined experience. Specialized in quantum error correction, he also has a strong software engineering background. In his opinion, applying industry-grade software engineering principles to science projects is a pressing need. Outside work, he enjoys board games, cooking and reading.

Olivier Bernard

Senior magnetometer designer

Olivier first worked on the diamond magnetometer through his internships and after during his master’s degree in electrical engineering. However, the interesting integration and optimization challenges of the project caught his attention. After building some guitar pedals as a hobby, now is the time to build quantum sensors!

Vincent Halde

Lead Quantum Innovation

Vincent has a master’s degree in Electrical Engineering of Université de Sherbrooke and is hoping to make quantum technologies the reality of tomorrow. When not in the lab exploring ways to improve the diamond sensor, you’ll find Vincent wandering in nature or in his garden.

François Ouellet

HW Team Lead – MagQuest program

Francois has graduated from ÉTS (École de technologie supérieure) in electrical engineering. After many years of experience brining electronic from concept to products, he is now bringing electronics in Orbit. From hiking to climbing, Francois enjoys exploring wild nature.

Mathieu Brochu

Data Scientist

An experienced statistician, Mathieu is analyzing magnetic field data (with the help of his bird, cats, and dog). When not working, you’ll find him wandering in the mountain or playing a board game.

Amin Razaei

Full stack software developer

Amin is a full stack software developer and he is about to finish my master degree from university of sherbrooke. He started programming when he was 14 and loves to do innovative projects.
