About the role
- The approximate base salary range for this position is $102,400 - $166,400.
- We consistently monitor external market data and update base salary ranges accordingly.
Responsibilities
- Develop and help maintain QuEra's compiler pipeline from circuit level quantum programs to QuEra's Pulse level Intermediate representation using QuEra's Static Single Assignment based compiler infrastructure.
- Design a novel domain specific language to program atom shuttling inside QuEra's neutral atom quantum computers.
- Implement and improve optimization methods relevant to shuttling workflows (e.g., routing/scheduling/planning heuristics, constraint-aware transformations, and cost-model-driven compilation decisions).
- Develop on static analysis for both the quantum circuit and atom shuttle level languages
Requirements
- Experience with Python semantics, Python type hints, CPython interpreter.
- Experience with at least one of the compiled languages and experienced with their type system, e.g C++, Julia, Rust, Haskell, OCamel, etc.
- Experience with Static Single Assignment intermediate representations-based compiler development.
- Knowledge of the full lifecycle of software development, including version control, code review, testing, CI/CD, logging, profiling, debugging, and documentation.
- Ph.D. in Computer Science with focus on programming language design and compilation
- Enthusiastic in building software tools for scientists especially physicists.
Nice to have
- Experience with computer microarchitecture/hardware design
- Experience with using LLVM or MLIR for compiler development, or experience with an existing compiler development
- Experience or publication in quantum hardware oriented program optimization, e.g scheduling, routing etc.
- Quantum error correction
- Contribution to existing open-source libraries
- Knowledge of quantum computing basics, e.g., common quantum algorithms, quantum information theory basics.
- We determine base compensation decisions on several factors, including as geographic placement, role-specific knowledge, skills, and/or experience.
- QuEra is committed to cultivating a diverse work environment and is proud to be an equal opportunity employer.
Skills
- This new direction involves multiple new challenges in both engineering and science.
Compensation
- The approximate base salary range for this position is $102,400 - $166,400.
- We consistently monitor external market data and update base salary ranges accordingly.
Company info
