ResponsibilitiesRequired Locations: One of: Everett, WA. Santa Clara, CA. Calabasas, CA. Cambridge, MA. Not open to remote.Implement and design Quantum Pro EDA software that enables engineers to design, model, and validate next-generation quantum systems. In this role, you will be a key member of an R&D team responsible for developing capabilities that enable quantum circuit design workflows-turning complex domain problems into robust, maintainable, high-performance software delivered through an Agile development process.
You will work closely with other engineers, Product Owners/Planners, and cross-functional partners to bring features to market, with a strong emphasis on hands-on coding in C++ and Python and production-quality engineering practices.
This is a hands-on software engineering role. Your software skills are more important than quantum skills. You will spend the majority of your time designing, implementing, testing, and maintaining production software in C++, including building APIs, writing unit/integration tests, profiling and optimizing performance, and collaborating via code reviews within an Agile team.
Include but are not limited to:
- Defining and coding new software features in C++ and Python that enable Quantum Pro workflows and implementing them with other squad members.
- Building and maintaining high-quality, production-ready code: clear architecture, test coverage, and performance-minded implementations.
- Developing software that supports quantum system design and/or simulation workflows, including translating domain concepts into computational representations as needed.
- Taking on complex software development tasks and solving challenging problems with a bias toward maintainability and robust design.
- Working with the product owner and development team to deliver quality products on time following the Agile software development process.
- Collaborating across teams to deliver results, communicate clearly, and drive alignment on technical approaches.
QualificationsRequired:
- Bachelor's, Master's, or Ph.D. degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Physics, or equivalent.
- Strong software development experience with demonstrated ability to deliver production-quality solutions.
- Excellent coding skills in modern C++ and Python, including object-oriented design and clean API development.
- Experience tackling complex problems (architecture, performance, reliability) and turning prototypes into robust deliverables.
- Ability to work effectively in an Agile environment and collaborate with multiple teams to deliver results.
- Experience delivering quality and robust software with solid engineering discipline (testing, CI/CD, code review practices).
- Strong written and verbal communication skills; growth mindset.
