Job description

Job Responsibilities

  • Build and maintain the software stack that orchestrates quantum computing on our systems, interfacing with (but not controlling) the hardware control and calibration systems owned by our partner team, and managing the experimental data our systems produce.
  • Rewrite and productionize prototype code written by our Quantum Engineers, turning research code into reliable, well-tested, maintainable services.
  • Develop and maintain infrastructure for automating system tuning and calibration.
  • Develop and maintain software for scheduling the execution and analyzing the results of quantum algorithms.
  • Work closely with our Quantum Engineers to write idiomatic, tested, and extensible code for executing experiments and algorithms on our quantum hardware.
  • Make sound architectural and code-design decisions that keep our codebase clean, extensible, and easy for the team to build on.
  • Deploy, monitor, and support our production platform, sharing in a team on-call rotation to keep our quantum computers reliably available to customers.
  • Partner with our infrastructure team to strengthen our CI/CD pipelines, contributing improvements that speed up and stabilize how we ship.

Experience & Education

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related field. Advanced degrees (Master's or PhD) are welcome but not required.
  • 5+ years of professional experience as a software engineer deploying complex software in production environments.

Required Qualifications

  • A passion for writing software and a track record of implementing architecture-level features in complex systems.
  • Proficiency with Python and SQL.
  • Experience developing and operating software in Linux environments.
  • Familiarity with Git, automated testing, and modern software development practices.
  • Willingness to learn the atomic, optical, laser physics, and quantum mechanics concepts needed to put your work in context.

Nice to Haves

  • Experience with a compiled language such as C++ or Rust.
  • Experience with cloud infrastructure (e.g. Azure, AWS, or GCP) and Terraform.
  • Experience building TypeScript/React frontend components.
  • Experience with containerization technologies.
  • Strong organization and project management skills.
  • Experience working at both a large technology company and a startup.
