About us
Riverlanes mission is to make quantum computing useful sooner. From advances in material science to complex chemistry simulation for drug design and discovery quantum computers will help solve some of the worlds most important challenges. Riverlane is building the quantum error correction stack Deltaflow to make this happen. Its a complex problem that requires a range of skills talent and passion.
About the role
You will join an engineering team building components to enable fault-tolerant quantum computing by getting the classical software and the hardware stack to work together optimally. You will work throughout the stack possibly specializing in some part of it. You will design and implement tools runtime components models of hardware and interfaces to real hardware.
Given the ground-breaking nature of our products we operate in a fast-moving and dynamic fashion: everyone in the Engineering and Quantum Science teams works with our Product and Business Development teams to define mid-term and long-term goals to best shape our products.
As a Software Engineer specialising in computer architecture modeling at Riverlane you will use your expert software skills to design and engineer software models/simulation/emulation of Deltaflow Riverlanes Quantum Error Correction (QEC) stack.
These models will enable us to make early tradeoffs in computer architecture do performance modeling of critical design choices and allow early development of the software stack.
With responsibility from day one you will collaborate closely with our world-class Engineering Product and Quantum Science teams to define build and deliver Deltaflow. A natural problem-solver you will be curious in your approach and solutions driven. You will work well with different people and have a ship mentality and you will learn quantum computing along the way!
Requirements
What you will do
- Understand design requirements and constraints for error-corrected quantum computing systems
- Develop functional and performance models of hardware
- Do full system bring-up co-simulation testing performance modelling
- Write correct fast and maintainable code
What we need
- Curiosity to learn about new technologies such as quantum computing
- Ability to work with a diverse range of people
- Proficiency in one native language like C or Rust.
- Experience in Python
- Understanding of how hardware implements software
- Be able to work under uncertainty
Benefits
What can you expect from us
- A comprehensive benefits package that includes an annual bonus plan private medical insurance life insurance and a contributory pension scheme
- Equity so that our team can share in the long-term success of Riverlane
- 28 days annual leave plus bank holidays and enhanced family leave
- A diverse work environment that brings together experts in many fields (including software and hardware development quantum information theory physics and maths) and over 20 different nationalities
- A learning environment that encourages individual team and company growth and learning including a regular programme of learning events and training and conference budgets
