    Responsibilities:
    Write high-quality, well-tested, production-ready code in C, Rust and other languages
    Design and implement Linux drivers and kernel level software
    Working with the broader team, support code updates and configuration of the embedded devices

    Effectively self-manage projects, priorities, deadlines, and deliverables
    Collaborate with an experienced interdisciplinary staff of software engineers, hardware engineers, and physicists
    Approach problems pragmatically
    Help us continuously improve how we do things
    The ideal candidate will have experience developing production quality software through all stages of the software lifecycle. 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 Engineering, Computer Science, Math, Physics, or equivalent practical experience
    10+ years professional experience in software development in operating system kernel space
    Good analytical and mathematical skills
    Excellent verbal and written communication skills
    A love of collaborating in an interdisciplinary environment

    Empathy:
    you'll work closely with our internal team of physicists who depend on our software every day and our control software engineers

    You'd be a great fit with:
    Professional or academic experience of at least one systems programming language (e.g. C, C++, Rust)
    Academic or professional experience with digital signal processing, either mathematical foundations or bench experience in image processing, RF, or optics
    Experience using oscilloscopes and/or spectrum analyzers
    Master's degree or PhD in Engineering, Computer Science, Math, Physics, or related technical field
    Experience working with RF or Optics

    Location:


    This position is located in our newest facility in Bothell, WA.While we can be flexible for the right candidate, colocation supports our highly collaborative and interactive work with the hardware teams building the world's best quantum computers.
