    Description

    IonQ is developing the world's most powerful full-stack quantum computer based on trapped-ion technology. We are pushing past the limits of classical physics and current supercomputing technology to unlock a new era of computing. Quantum computing has the potential to impact every area of human society for the better. IonQ's computers will soon redefine industries like medicine, materials science, finance, artificial intelligence, machine learning, cryptography, and more. IonQ is at the forefront of this technological revolution.


    The salary range for this position is $141,670 - $185,482.

    We are looking for a software engineer to help build the next generation of our systems control platform that runs on our world class quantum computers. Never worked in quantum computing before? It's much like a system for a robot, managing feedback loops at various time scales between sensors and actuators to create a precisely tuned environment where we can perform high fidelity quantum computations. In this role, you'll help develop the hardware abstraction layer and non-real time devices control logic that helps keep the computer in the optimal quantum state.

    Responsibilities:

    • Lead, design, architect, develop, test, deploy, maintain and improve major software components, systems, and features; being a small team, we count on each other to run with projects independently
    • Ensure the quality of our system through design and code reviews
    • Assist in the career development of others, providing mentorship on advanced technical issues
    • Collaborate with an experienced interdisciplinary staff
    • Approach problems pragmatically
    • Help us continuously improve how we do things

    The ideal candidate will have experience leading or contributing to multiple simultaneous product development efforts, projects, and initiatives. You'll be able to balance technical expertise and savvy with strong business judgment to make great technology choices. You'll strive for simplicity and demonstrate significant creativity and incisive judgment.

    You'd be a good fit with:

    • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent practical experience -- untraditional backgrounds are welcome here
    • 3+ years experience in software development in one or more general-purpose programming languages (like Java, Go, Rust, or C/C++)
    • Excellent engineering skills in a few key areas:
      • Multithreaded programming and execution
      • Distributed systems
      • Interfacing with hardware via Ethernet, USB, serial, etc.
    • Excellent verbal and written communication skills
    • A love of collaborating in an interdisciplinary environment
    • Empathy and customer focus: you'll work closely with our internal team of physicists who depend on our software every day

    You'd be a great fit with:

    • Master's degree or PhD in Computer Science or Engineering
    • Deep expertise in Go and/or Rust and embedded systems development
    • A background in robotics, embedded systems or OS device drivers development
    • Experience with programmatic device control (SCPI, MODBUS, etc. over serial, USB, TCP)
    • Experience developing hardware abstraction libraries

    Location:

    IonQ's software team works remotely with the option to commute into our headquarters in College Park, Maryland or our newest facility in Bothell, WA.


    Our HQ is located in College Park, Maryland and we are a 15 minute metro ride from Washington DC. We are actively building out our recently opened manufacturing and production facility in the Seattle, Washington area. Depending on the position, you may be required to be located in Washington DC, Seattle, Washington or the Toronto, Canada area. However, IonQ will be expanding into additional geographies both domestically and internationally so don't let this stop you from applying.
