Infleqtion
Overview
Infleqtion
is on a mission to commercialize atom‑based quantum technologies that deliver orders‑of‑magnitude improvements in sensing and computing applications. We are seeking self‑motivated, energetic individuals with exceptional problem‑solving and technical skills to help drive our
Quantum Computing
mission forward.
Base pay range $175,000.00/yr - $220,000.00/yr
Company Culture
We break down barriers between disciplines, stepping in wherever we can make the biggest impact
We thrive in uncertainty, embracing challenges as opportunities
We move quickly to prototype while never losing sight of the critical importance of systems engineering process and attention to detail
We take bold, calculated risks to drive progress
Director of Software Engineering The ideal candidate brings strong expertise in designing and delivering robust and scalable software services, along with proven experience leading software teams in developing those services. Your vision will chart the course for innovation, setting the technical direction and architectural foundation of our software systems.
Job Responsibilities
Manage, develop, build, and lead a team of software developers & DevOps engineers. Mentor and guide direct reports, fostering their growth and enhancing the team’s technical expertise.
Develop, communicate, and enforce software development standards and processes.
Maintain a comprehensive understanding of Infleqtion quantum‑computing software systems, their operational principles, requirements, the broad technical stack, etc.; architect and design control system software; hands‑on application of deep subject‑matter expertise in building software systems.
In collaboration with programmatic leadership and adjacent engineering disciplines, develop and execute a technical roadmap for software deliverables across the control stack to support high‑level quantum‑computing performance targets and system deliverables.
Communicate software feature roadmaps and resource needs between the control software team, adjacent stakeholders, and executive management.
Requirements
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Applied Mathematics, Physics or related field and a minimum of 8 years prior work experience.
Demonstrated success in a technical leadership role in a deep‑tech startup environment.
Deep expertise in Python and at least one compiled language, with enthusiasm for learning and developing in Rust.
Command of systems engineering principles and their application to requirements‑driven software engineering.
Extensive experience with Linux and modern containerization and virtualization technologies.
Comfortable working with hardware and embedded engineers to architect, design, and build high‑performance, real‑time control systems.
Excellent verbal and written communication skills, able to effectively share information with technical and non‑technical staff and external parties.
Eagerness to expand knowledge beyond core area of expertise.
Experience with industry‑standard DevOps workflows.
Experience with modern development methodologies such as agile and scrum.
Preferred Experience
PhD in relevant technical area (computer science, physics, etc).
Domain expertise in quantum information science; demonstrated success in a technical leadership role in the quantum field.
Experience managing software engineering teams.
Experience leading aspects of product development with highly complex dependencies in system and project plan.
Experience with Numpy, Scipy, and GPU acceleration libraries.
Experience optimizing Python packages using C or Rust extensions.
Familiarity with quantum error correction and its implied requirements for control software and hardware elements.
Experience with databases (relational and non‑relational) including but not limited to timeseries data, SQL, and ETL processes.
Location Boulder, CO; Chicago, IL; or Madison, WI
