Senior Embedded Software Engineer

AtInfleqtionwe solve the worlds most challenging problems usingcutting-edgequantum technology. Our mission is to commercialize atom-based quantum products that provide orders of magnitude improvements in sensing and computing applications. We are proud to work tirelessly to create and lead the quantum ecosystem towards meaningful advancements today and set the technology roadmap for tomorrow.

POSITION SUMMARY

WithinInfleqtionsComputing Product Group(CPG) the Hardware Engineering Team isseeking a Senior Embedded Software Engineer to own and deliver highperformance embedded and systems software enabling realtime quantum error correction and classical control at scale. This role focuses on integrating NVIDIAhighspeed interconnects with quantum errorcorrection decoding pipelines in close collaboration with quantum software physics and hardware teams.

Thispositionis scoped as a seniorlevel individual contributor role: the engineer independently owns complex subsystems endtoend within an established architecture solves technically hard problemsinteracts directly with external partnersand mentors developing engineers without defining longterm platform engineer will also serve as a point-of-contact (POC) forsubsystemhardware integration with NVidiasNVQLink.

JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

Typically you will be entrusted with:

• Independently design implementvalidate andmaintainembedded and systemslevel software subsystems supporting realtime quantum error correction and control.

• Translate quantum errorcorrection requirements (code distance syndrome rates latency budgets) intoconcreteclassical compute memory and interconnect requirements.

• Design systems that meet deterministic latency bandwidth and reliability requirements across CPU GPU FPGA and highspeed interconnect domains.

• Serve as the technical pointofcontact for NVIDIANVQLinkintegration including topology bandwidth modeling latency characterization and failure direct interaction withNVIDIA personnel as well as HPC experts in academia and US national labs.

• Collaborate closely with Quantum Software Physics Electrical and Systems Engineering to codesign hardware/software interfaces.

• Troubleshoot and resolve complex performance scaling and integration issues spanning firmware drivers OS(Embedded Linux /bare-metalenvironments) GPU runtimes and hardware.

• Develop andmaintainvalidation infrastructure performance benchmarks and test harnesses for deterministic behavior and scaling.

• Provide informal mentorship through design reviews code reviews and technical guidance.

WE HOPE YOU HAVE:

• A degree(PhDpreferred)in Computer Engineering Electrical Engineering Computer Science or related fieldwith experience in high-performance computing (HPC).

• Demonstrated experience owning complex embedded or systemslevel software subsystems endtoend.

• Strong experience with C/C in performancecritical systems.

• Experience debugging across software and hardware boundaries (drivers firmware interconnects timing).

• Solid understanding of computer architecture fundamentals (memory hierarchies interconnects latency vs throughput tradeoffs).

• Experiencewith hardware/software codesign for quantum control systems

• Experience working in Linuxbased embedded or HPC environments.

• Familiarity with GPU programming models (CUDA or equivalent) at a systems level.

WE HIGHLY VALUE:

• Highperformance computing (HPC) systems design or deployment.

• Familiary withNVIDIACUDA-Q

• Direct experience with NVIDIAHoloscanSensor Bridge RDMA over Converged Ethernetor similar highspeed coherent interconnects.

• Experience supporting or developing errorcorrection decoding pipelines (quantum or classical).

• Backgroundsimilar toadvanced academic research groups in quantum architectures or decoding (e.g. largescale syndrome decoding research).

• Experience performancemodelingcomputesystems as a function of problem size and algorithmic complexity.

• Exposure to FPGAaccelerated or heterogeneouscomputesystems.

• Detail-oriented mindset witha strong senseof ownership and technical accountability.

• Positive collaborative working style and enthusiasm for mentoring and developing engineers.
