    What will you do

    • Develop software in C++ and Python to operationalize and integrate complex quantum sensing hardware.

    • Design, implement, and maintain APIs for hardware components (e.g., translation stages, arbitrary waveform generators), conceptualize measurement workflows, and integrate them into a GUI.

    • Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to ensure seamless interaction between software, data science & ML, and quantum sensing experts.

    • Drive best practices for software development, including documentation, testing, and code reviews.

    • Champion innovative solutions by staying current with emerging tools, technologies, and frameworks.

    • Contribute to and help shape the overarching vision and architecture of our software stack.


    What is expected of you

    • 3+ years of industry experience (outside academia) in software development with a high degree of proficiency in C++ and Python.

    • Background in robot operating systems (ROS) and/or physics is advantageous.

    • Experience with Qt is a significant plus.

    • Familiarity with Scrum or other Agile methodologies is highly beneficial.

    • Proven ability to work independently while documenting solutions thoroughly.

    • Strong communication skills: comfortable sharing ideas, explaining technical concepts, and collaborating with team members who have diverse skill sets.
