Quantum Computing Jobs

• Oxford
• Lead

Leads the evolution of the system software architecture for a quantum computer, spanning real-time hardware control, low-level orchestration and developer-facing interfaces across a family of products. Coaches technical leads in architectural principles and coordinates with infrastructure, firmware and compiler teams in the UK and US, working at system level rather than designing through code.
