Software Engineer
About the job
Are you passionate about quantum and do you want to contribute to quantum technology in a dynamic environment? Apply now to become a software engineer in our new startup initiative at QuTech, Groove, located in the buzzing Delft quantum ecosystem!
Our mission is to develop scalable quantum processors based on our unique germanium semiconductor technology. In your role, you will contribute to this goal by developing software solutions and creating the tools that lie at the heart of our full-stack quantum computers. These tools focus on design and validation of processor design, efficient qubit measurement, i.e. the automation of tuning and device characterization, and on the integration of our full-stack quantum computer up to a cQASM level, i.e. gate decomposition, optimization and mapping.
As a software engineer, you will collaborate closely with our quantum engineers, that work on device fabrication, measurements, and system integration. This will give you the opportunity to collaborate on cutting-edge projects and develop the tools that are needed to scale quantum computers.
Your daily responsibilities will be:
- Designing, implementing, and maintaining tooling software, consisting of several components, for processing quantum algorithms, tailored to meet measurement needs.
- Developing, maintaining, and testing of the code base, ensuring quality through unit and integration testing and bringing improvements through controlled updates.
The envisaged timeframe for our startup to become an independent QuTech spinoff is approximately a year. During this period, we expect to grow our technical team beyond ten driven researchers and engineers. Embark on this journey with us today and benefit from the best of both worlds as you become a part of our startup launch while working with leading quantum researchers and engineers at QuTech.
Finally, creating an open, welcoming, and inclusive workplace is a core priority for us. We believe in nurturing a supportive environment where your thoughts and proactive approach will be highly appreciated. As the startup expands over the years, you will have the opportunity to grow and evolve alongside us.
