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. Prior quantum computing knowledge is not necessary - you will learn this along the way! What you will do: * 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 ## Related Videos - [Quantum DevOps - Quantum Application Development](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1441-quantum-devops-quantum-application-development) - [An Applied Introduction to eBPF with Go](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1075-an-applied-introduction-to-ebpf-with-go) - [JavaScript?
