About The Role and Team
The role sits within the Intelligent Automation (IA) team, whose goal is to transform key parts of both the characterisation and operation of the quantum processor.
As a Quantum Software Engineer in the IA team, you will build an essential part of the software necessary to control Quantum Motion’s quantum processing units (QPUs). This will entail adapting open-source frameworks to build a transpiler which translates user input provided in an existing quantum instruction language to an instruction set that is compatible with Quantum Motion’s quantum hardware and quantum emulation tools. To this end, a thorough understanding of existing transpilers or compilers for quantum computing applications is a preferred qualification. The successful candidate will be able to understand and contribute to other functions of the software stack and will work in close collaboration with the teams working on the emulation tools as well as the interface with control electronics. You will communicate with users to understand their specific needs and translate this into product requirements.
The Ideal candidate will have a demonstrated ability to develop robust software solutions from the beginning and deliver projects on a defined timeline. Experience in quantum computing, including running on quantum hardware emulators is preferred. Knowledge of testing and /benchmarking of quantum systems as well as the implementation of demonstration algorithms, would be beneficial.
