Responsibilities

In this position, you will work on the services that schedule work onto our quantum computers and keep the record of it, supporting the effective delivery of a control plane the whole fleet depends on.

You'll have the opportunity to own real pieces of that system end to end, contributing directly to the success of the System Software function.

Key Responsibilities Include:

• Build and extend the services that schedule work on our systems and keep the record of it.
• Build the mechanisms that decide when a system needs re-tuning, and get those calibrations run.
• Own what we persist: the data model, its migrations, and the code that reads and writes it.
• Produce the tests and harnesses that let our code be exercised against real hardware and against simulators.
• Work with the systems teams to roll releases out across the fleet and support them once they are running.
• Improve the observability of the code you ship.
• Take part in code review, and improve the APIs our internal users depend on

Requirements

To be successful, you will need solid programming skills, an interest in the systems that keep long-running machines working, and either experience of a systems programming language or the appetite to learn one. We're looking for someone who can work comfortably in a Linux environment, cares about what happens to data when a service crashes or a migration goes wrong, and can contribute effectively within a fast moving, highly technical team.

You'd Be a Great Fit With:

• Strong programming skills in one or more mainstream programming languages.
• Experience with a systems programming language. Our System Orchestration layer is written in Rust, so either some Rust experience or the appetite to learn it.
• Comfort with relational databases and SQL; we use PostgreSQL.
• Some exposure to networked services and APIs, such as gRPC or REST.
• Exposure to schedulers, job queues or workflow engines - Celery, Airflow, Temporal, Slurm or similar.
• Comfort working on Linux, and debugging a service that is already running.
• Good communication skills both within software and across disciplines.
• A habit of producing appropriate tests and taking part in code review.

Additional useful experience would include async programming, containers and Kubernetes, closed-loop systems that act on measured state, and scientific computing or research facilities.

Benefits

Be part of a team that’s shaping the future of quantum. We offer more than just a role, you’ll join a world class community of scientists, engineers and innovators working to unlock the full potential of quantum computing.

We offer a range of benefits, including opportunities to further your career alongside industry leaders, a competitive salary with IonQ stock options, an annual performance bonus, generous annual leave, flexible hybrid working, private medical and dental insurance for you and your family, and much more.

You will own features end to end, from the API through to the rollout onto real machines. You'll play an important part in shaping the services that support our work in building the world's most advanced quantum systems. Previous exposure to quantum systems is not required.
