Senior Software Engineer - Quantum Systems

We are looking for an experienced, broad-minded software engineer who enjoys working across disciplines to help us build the software backbone of this system.

Software plays a central role in the development of our quantum computer. It spans low-level hardware and signal control, experiment orchestration, simulation and validation, data and cloud infrastructure, and internal tools and interfaces.

As a Senior Software Engineer – Quantum Systems, you will work closely with our Head of Software and multi disciplinarity R&D team to design, develop, and integrate the software stack that operates and supports our quantum processing system.

We value strong software engineering skills, curiosity, good judgment, and the ability to learn and work across technical boundaries. We are not looking for someone who has mastered every technology below, but for someone with depth in several areas and the breadth to navigate the rest.

Key Responsibilities

Design and develop the company’s software stack across multiple layers of the system.

Develop software that interfaces with laboratory equipment and physical hardware, including drivers, control, and real-time components.
