QuEra Computing Inc. seeks to solve the unique software challenges of integrating high-level applications into state-of-the-art neutral-atom quantum computers by developing standard libraries and co-designing algorithms and applications for the next generation of quantum computing.
Requirements
- Proficient with Python, especially Python type hints and design patterns
- Knowledge of the full lifecycle of software development, including version control, code review, testing, CI/CD, logging, profiling, debugging, and documentation
- Knowledge of at least one of the following: Hamiltonian simulation, quantum error correction, quantum machine learning, or quantum optimization
- Deep knowledge of quantum algorithms, AMO physics, and programming language design
- Experience with compiled languages such as C++, Rust, Julia
Responsibilities
- Develop standard libraries around our internal and open-source eDSLs at various programmable levels of the stack.
- Identify language design flaws and compiler bugs encountered during the development
- Write comprehensive documentations for user-facing APIs
- Collaborate with research scientists and experimentalists to design new architecture-specific algorithms and optimize frequently used subroutines
- Collaborate with other members of the scientific software team and quantum solutions team to identify use cases, advance language design, and optimizing compilers
- Building several standard libraries for our unique hardware architecture at various programming levels such as pulse shaping, atom shuttling and circuit.
- Co-designing algorithms and applications for the next generation of quantum computing using cutting-edge neutral-atom and quantum error correction technologies.
