Your mission
As Software Engineer, you will be involved in developing several stages of a quantum computer. In close collaboration with the hardware team, you will design and develop control software that can be deployed to multiple quantum computers, software to simulate a quantum computer on different levels of detail, build deployment pipelines for cloud services, or be part of an algorithms project to optimize complex simulations.
Key responsibilities:
* Develop and code new features and tests to enhance projects
* Document code consistently during development
* Share knowledge and collaborate effectively within the team
* Automate testing in CI/CD pipelines
* Continuously learn about new technologies and the workings of quantum computers
Your profile
Necessary requirements:
* 3+ years of experience in professional software engineering
* Proficiency in high-level programming languages (e.g., Python, Rust, C, C++).
* Eager to learn new technologies
* Identify as a team player
* Fluent in English
Supplementary skills:
* Background in (quantum) physics or interest in physics
* Cloud deployments with Docker/Helm/Terraform/Kubernetes
* FPGA programming
* CI/CD with GitLab
* Worked in an agile setting (Scrum)
Why us?
planqc, founded in 2022 by scientists from the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics (MPQ) and Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich (LMU), is a pioneering quantum computing startup based in Garching near Munich. We specialize in developing highly scalable neutral-atom quantum computers, utilizing individual atoms as qubits.
Here’s why you’ll love being part of our journey:
* Cutting-Edge Innovation: At planqc, you’ll work with state-of-the-art technology, using individual atoms as qubits to build highly scalable quantum computers.
* Impactful Projects: Join us as we develop groundbreaking quantum systems and software, including a 1,000-qubit computer for the Leibniz Supercomputing Centre (LRZ) and quantum algorithms for several DLR projects.
* Dynamic Work Culture: We value innovation, collaboration, and growth. Our team of around 50 brilliant minds works from locations in Garching, Ulm, and Innsbruck.
* Recognition and Growth: planqc’s achievements are celebrated globally.
* Work-Life Synergy: Whether it’s through team events or opportunities to attend quantum conferences worldwide, you’ll find a supportive community that values both your professional and personal growth.
At planqc, we harness the laws of quantum mechanics to build revolutionary computing systems. Our quantum computers store information in individual atoms — nature’s perfect qubits. Together, we’re not just imagining the future — we’re building it.
