Quantum Error Correction Software Engineer
Join to apply for the
Quantum Error Correction Software Engineer
role at
Atom Computing . At Atom Computing, we build quantum computers using arrays of optically trapped neutral atoms that will empower customers to achieve unprecedented computational breakthroughs. Join a world‑class team of scientists, engineers, and business professionals to advance the state‑of‑the‑art in quantum computing.
We are seeking a software engineer with a background in quantum information theory to contribute to the architecture and strategy of error correction in neutral atom quantum computers. Atomic qubit arrays provide a path to large‑scale quantum computers that will deliver fault‑tolerant, error‑corrected logical qubits.
Job Responsibilities
Research related to quantum error‑correcting codes and fault‑tolerance
Design and implement demonstrations of fault‑tolerant quantum computation
Perform real‑time decoding and classical feedforward during fault‑tolerant quantum computation
Setup and maintenance of databases
Compilation of quantum circuits
Analyze data generated from quantum hardware performing error‑corrected computation
Simulate fault‑tolerant quantum computation
Perform resource estimation for fault‑tolerant quantum applications
Experience & Education
PhD in Physics, Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field
Experience with quantum error correction theory
Qualifications
Previous experience developing software for quantum computers in industry and/or academia, and a solid grasp of quantum computing and quantum information concepts
Proficiency in Python and one or more compiled languages such as Rust, C, or C++, and familiarity with Git version control
Willingness to learn AMO physics or quantum mechanics concepts as required
Documented ability to translate research results into functional production code
Ability to effectively collaborate with software developers, physicists, and engineers in complementary disciplines
Temperamentally suited to work at a fast‑growing, early‑stage startup: self‑motivated, humble, driven, collaborative, and with a high tolerance for ambiguity and uncertainty
Benefits & Salary Atom Computing provides a wide variety of perks and benefits, including fully paid medical, dental, and vision insurance for our employees and their dependents, unlimited paid time off, 401(k) company matching, short‑ and long‑term disability, FSA, dependent care benefits, and life insurance. Additional fringe benefits include drinks, snacks, and catered team lunches in our offices daily. The base salary range for this position is between $155,000 and $185,000, commensurate with experience. In addition to salary, we offer an annual bonus and equity in the company.
