At
Universal Quantum , we aim to make the world a better place by developing a new computer technology. Together, we are creating truly impactful quantum computers. Our machines will be capable of solving problems until now considered impossible, with applications ranging across a broad range of industries including healthcare, materials, and aerospace. We are looking for an experienced and highly skilled
Software Engineer
to join our talented and enthusiastic team of scientists and engineers in creating, optimizing, and maintaining modular, reliable, and scalable operating systems for our quantum computers. Passionate about helping create technologies that can change the world? UQ may be the right place for you, so get in touch! WHAT YOU’LL ACCOMPLISH:
Take responsibility for major features within the Quantum Computing Software Stack. Work on use cases, analyze issues, create and communicate solutions, and lead the development of components within our software stack. Benchmark, profile, and optimize Quantum Computing processes, algorithms, and software. Work within multidisciplinary teams of electronic engineers, physicists, hardware designers, and software developers to develop innovative solutions to complex challenges. Evaluate and document the systems you help design, build, and maintain. Participate in knowledge sharing and code reviews to improve product quality. Support experimentation and continuously adapt to new discoveries from the Quantum team. Requirements
The 3 Most Critical Attributes We'll Use to Compare Candidates:
High proficiency in designing, developing, and debugging complex software in Python, and at least one compiled language such as C++ or Rust. Experience with requirements capture, collaborative design and development, revision control, verification/validation, and unit testing. Enthusiastic team player with good communication skills. Must-have Skills:
5+ years of experience in design and development of production (product-based) software using a mix of Python and C++ (or similar). Writing readable, high-integrity, efficient, and well-documented code. Experience designing and developing multi-thread and multi-process applications. Hands-on experience with distributed systems, IPC/RPC, and containers (Docker). Familiarity with Git, collaborative design and development processes, and being a prolific code reviewer. Excellent written and verbal communication skills and the ability to produce good documentation. Pragmatic approach to decision-making and design choices. Ability to rapidly grasp new concepts through research and reading. Willingness to learn new tools and programming languages. Nice-to-have Experience:
Experience with simulations, parallelization, and HPC optimizations. Experience with cloud deployment, orchestration, and optimization. Experience with Rust. Exposure to embedded systems and real-time hardware control. Experience working in a multidisciplinary team (hardware engineers, applied scientists, etc). Previous experience in start-ups or similar dynamic work environments. Please feel encouraged to apply even if you don't match all the requirements of our job description. We would love to receive your application even if you think you only match some of the requirements. Benefits
Competitive salary, equity options, an unlimited paid holiday allowance, flexible working options, a 10% matching pension, a generous parental support policy, private health/dental insurance, personal development budget, and relocation support. We are committed to nurturing diversity and inclusion At Universal Quantum, we're passionate about working with and for all kinds of minds. As a proud signatory of the Tech Talent Charter (TTC), we have made a number of formal commitments to help to hold ourselves accountable to both our team and peers. This includes pledging to collaborate and share best practices with others, to continuously develop plans to drive inclusion across our business, and to collect and share our diversity data annually. We welcome team members from all backgrounds and work to create an environment where everyone can flourish freely.
