Alice & Bob is developing the first universal, fault-tolerant quantum computer to solve the world’s hardest problems.

The quantum computer we envision building is based on a new kind of superconducting qubit: the Schrödinger cat qubit. In comparison to other superconducting platforms, cat qubits have the astonishing ability to implement quantum error correction autonomously!

We’re a diverse team of 250+ brilliant minds from over 35 countries united by a single goal: to revolutionise computing with a practical fault-tolerant quantum machine. Are you ready to take on unprecedented challenges and contribute to revolutionising technology? Join us, and let’s shape the future of quantum computing together!

A lead quantum/HPC Integration Engineer in this environment would have 15+ years of experience, substantial exposure to all or nearly all of the required disciplines, a reputation in at least one of them, and a demonstrated ability to lead others whose expertise exceeds their own. They will be capable of writing and reviewing production level code in C, C++, and Python, and be knowledgeable in legacy languages like FORTRAN and newer systems languages like Rust. They will be able to transform concepts into clean and rigorous architecture, and architecture into efficient and maintainable code.

We will deliver working open-source software to allow Alice & Bob quantum processors to be integrated with and administered with HPC computing center networks and management systems.

This position is part of a US-based team. Alice & Bob’s physical offices in the United States are located in the Boston area, though remote working arrangements may be available.

Responsibilities

Work with other Alice & Bob teams (including but not limited to Compilation, Application, Software Architecture teams) to develop new architectures for quantum computing systems and quantum hybrid HPC
Design systems software components that implement these architectures
Code, debug, and integrate those components
Work with users in the research community on their own terms to inform architecture and design
Build a culture of HPC and scientific computing at Alice & Bob
Supervise and mentor other team members as required

Requirements

15+ years of industry experience
Production work on HPC resource management systems, Slurm, PBS, LSF
Production code in C, C++, Python, FORTRAN, Assembler, Julia, Rust
Quantum computing theory and practice
Production work in design and implementation of high-performance distributed parallel computing systems.
Production work using HPC programming methods, MPI, OpenMP, task-based models
Experience with HPC networking infrastructure, libfabric, RDMA
Operating systems support for accelerators and special-purpose hardware (e.g. medical imaging)
DSP systems and programming
Forensic Performance Analysis and Performance Engineering
Real-time Scheduling
Hardware architecture/design experience

Nice to have:

Compiler Implementation
