The salary range for this role is broad, as we are able to consider varying levels of experience.
Any offer made will carefully take into account level of experience (including relevant industry experience), transferable relevant skills and previous relevant achievements.
Riverlane’s
mission is to master quantum error correction (QEC) and unlock a new age of human progress. From advances in material and climate science, to complex chemistry simulation for new drug design, quantum computers will help humanity solve some of its most important challenges. But without QEC, the industry’s defining technical challenge, such breakthroughs can never be achieved.
Riverlane is the world leader in QEC technology. QEC is a complex problem that requires a range of skills,
talent
and passion.
Having raised more than $125M in funding to date to accelerate our
cutting-edge
R&D in quantum error correction (QEC), Riverlane partners with many of the world’s leading quantum hardware providers and government agencies to make fault-tolerant quantum computing a reality.
We’re
making remarkable progress and growing fast.
Riverlane’s
overarching mission is making quantum computing useful sooner.
Di fferent
quantum
architectures require
different solutions
to quantum error correction.
We
are seeking a technical leader for our new software-based quantum error correction stack, DF-AMO. DF-AMO targets scalability whilst preserving the flexibility required to support Atomic Molecular Optical (AMO) systems (Ion Traps, Cold Atoms). It is designed to be driven by
Deltakit, our software SDK, and complement
Deltaflow, our solid-state systems solution.
As Technical Lead for DF-AMO, you will own the technical
development
of
this new
product, working closely with engineering, research, product, and customer teams.
You will turn our industry-leading decoding technology into a scalable, production-ready system, helping shape both the technical roadmap and future product direction.
You will evaluate technical trade-offs to manage system performance,
maintainability
and scalability, in a domain
where latency and throughput are key requirements. You will mentor and develop a growing team of
5+
engineers, fostering a
culture of collaboration and
delivery.
What we need: Proven experience in leading small to medium technical efforts (5+ people)
Excellent
software skills, particularly in
C++, with Python experience also being beneficial
Comfortable learning quantum error correction fundamentals
to
enable close collaboration
with our QEC research teams
Experience delivering complex software products from concept through to deployment and customer adoption
Experience line managing other engineers
Strong
ability to collaborate and communicate with a diverse team
Expert-level understanding in at least one of the following areas:
Performant multi-process software
Modern compiler infrastructures
GPU-accelerated computing
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
