Description:
You will thrive in an environment where knowledge-sharing and continuous learning are the norm. We are moving fast in a brand-new market, where requirements change as the technology evolves, so the ability to adapt is important.
What you will do
- Design and build system tools such as compilers, emulators, profilers and debuggers
- Design and implement correct, maintainable compiler optimizations, transformations, and analyses across multiple IR levels.
- Own a substantial part of the software stack for error-corrected quantum computing systems
- Mentor, guide and lead engineers in the team
- Lead collaboration with other engineering teams to integrate their software and hardware artifacts with the compiler
- Work with scientists and engineers to implement new error correcting codes, and runtimes for new decoders
What we need
- Curiosity to learn new things
- Experience of working collaboratively, with a diverse range of people
- Good communication skills, both written and verbal
- Broad knowledge of the whole software and hardware stack: compilers, operating systems, computer architectures
- Experience in compilers (LLVM MLIR or others), in particular experience in middle- and back-end areas such as IR design, optimization passes, instruction selection, etc.
- Experience of shipping software to users
- Proficiency in Python; proficiency in C++ or Rust
- Interest in working in the quantum open-source ecosystem
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 development, including a regular programme of learning events and training and conference budgets
