Job description
skills, talent and passion.Having raised more than $125M in funding to date to accelerate our cutting-edge R&D in quantum error correction (QEC), Riverlane partners with many of the world's leading quantum hardware providers and government agencies to make fault-tolerant quantum computing a reality. We're making remarkable progress and growing fast.About The Role You will join an engineering team building components to enable fault-tolerant quantum computing, by getting the classical software and the hardware stack to work together optimally. You will work throughout the stack, possibly specializing in some part of it. You will design and implement tools, runtime components, models of hardware, and interfaces to real hardware.Given the ground-breaking nature of our products we operate in a fast-moving and dynamic fashion: everyone in the Engineering and Quantum Science teams works with our Product and Business Development teams to define mid-term and long-term goals to best shape our

products.As a Software Engineer specialising in computer architecture modeling at Riverlane, you will use your expert software skills to design and engineer software models/simulation/emulation of Deltaflow, Riverlane's Quantum Error Correction (QEC) stack.These models will enable us to make early trade-offs in computer architecture, do performance modelling of critical design choices, and allow early development of the software stack.With responsibility from day one, you will collaborate closely with our world-class Engineering, Product and Quantum Science teams to define, build and deliver Deltaflow. A natural problem-solver, you will be curious in your approach and solutions driven. You will work well with different people and have a 'ship' mentality... and you will learn quantum computing along the way!What You Will DoUnderstand design requirements and constraints for error-corrected quantum computing systemsDevelop functional and performance models of hardwareDo full system bring-up, co-simulation, testing, performance modellingWrite correct, fast and maintainable codeWhat We NeedCuriosity to learn about new technologies such as quantum computingAbility to work with a diverse range of peopleProficiency in one native language like C++ or Rust.Experience in PythonUnderstanding of how hardware implements softwareBe able to work under uncertaintyWhat Can You Expect From UsA comprehensive benefits package that includes an annual bonus plan, private medical insurance, life insurance, and a contributory pension schemeEquity, so that our team can share in the long-term success of Riverlane28 days annual leave, plus bank holidays and enhanced family leaveA diverse work environment that brings together experts in many fields (including software and hardware development, quantum information theory, physics and maths) and over 20 different nationalitiesA learning environment that encourages individual, team and company growth and development
