Your role in the team
- As a Senior Software Developer, you will be leading the development of the AQT software stack.
- Your main focus will be developing state-of-the-art software and creating new features for AQT's quantum computers, integrating established tools and software frameworks for optimal systems operation.
- You will closely collaborate with stakeholders from operations, research, and engineering to identify, implement, and enable them to leverage the new software features.
- You will have the opportunity to work on a variety of projects simultaneously.
- This may include contributing to the development of internal tools and infrastructure to support the company's overall goals, participating in research and planning work as well as software architecture design.
- As a Senior Software Developer, you will be at the forefront of the quantum computing industry, pushing the boundaries of what is possible with cutting-edge technologies.
- Design, develop, test, and maintain control software for AQT quantum computing systems and devices.
- Implement software features spanning the stack from embedded control to user-facing APIs, including coding, debugging, documentation, and automated testing.
- Use real-time control frameworks (e.g., on an FPGA or SoC systems) to build tools for programming and executing quantum circuits on quantum hardware.
- Collaborate closely with hardware, system, and quantum engineers to ensure seamless integration of software and hardware components.
- Develop new feature concepts, prototypes, and integrate them into operational software environments.
- Perform code reviews and uphold best practices in software design and development.
- Support DevOps processes across the software development life cycle.
- Contribute to continuous improvement in both technical and team practices.
