Integration Software Engineer

• At Riverlane, we build new and advanced solutions to solve one of the hardest problems in quantum computing: quantum error correction (QEC)
• As a Integration Software Engineer at Riverlane, you will help build the world’s first quantum error correction stack - Deltaflow, and help deploy it to real customers
• You will be excited by the opportunity to work with customers, including onsite with the customer, to ensure the integration of Deltaflow with their system
• This cutting-edge work will involve collaborating with our world-class engineering, product and quantum physics teams to design, build and deliver this stack
• At Riverlane, we are creating something truly unique, complex and large-scale, so being comfortable with engineering to evolving specs is key
• As such, you will be happy and excited to get hands-on quickly in areas outside your own expertise
• You will also work well with different people and be team-oriented
• Design and build embedded software components for our quantum error correction stack, specifically targeting features that aid with seamless deployment of our product to partners
• Integrate our QEC stack into world-class quantum computing systems
• Develop test infrastructure to verify and benchmark whole-system correctness and performance
• Work alongside our Product and Quantum Science teams to understand the requirements and constraints for this cutting-edge system
