Details
NVIDIA's Quantum Computing team is searching for an outstanding software engineer to build the toolchain of the future. Join us in developing the CUDA-Q platform for programming powerful hybrid quantum-classical multi-processor systems. We are looking for a dedicated engineer with expertise building extensible toolchains and distributed systems.
Are you creative, always looking to come up with innovative solutions, and eager to apply your skills to advance a novel field of computing? If you love the craft of software engineering and relish the chance to impact the future of the industry, this role may be perfect for you.
Responsibilities
- Contribute to the development of CUDA Quantum by building core infrastructure for inter-device communication and efficient execution across multiple processors.
- Partner with architects, product managers, and collaborators to create an extensible toolchain integrating quantum-architecture-specific components.
- Solve difficult problems at the intersection of compilers, high-performance computing (HPC), and quantum computing to enable ground-breaking research and technology.
- Discuss and refine software designs and implementation strategies with peers.
- Improve processes and infrastructure to accelerate development.
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Physics, or a related engineering field (Master's or Ph.D. preferred), or equivalent experience.
- 5+ years of experience working on large-scale software projects with a proven track record of building performant and robust production software.
- A solid understanding of performance profiling, multi-processor systems, and compiler fundamentals.
- Ability to quickly develop expertise in new domains and products, and eagerness to master new challenges.
- Strong communication and collaboration skills.
Ways to Stand Out
- Extensive knowledge about quantum computing hardware and control systems and/or prior experience implementing optimization and code generation components for various quantum computing architectures.
- A passion for system design and a focus on improving extensibility.
- An understanding of quantum error correction.
- Deep understanding of compiler toolchains, specifically LLVM/MLIR.
- Proficiency in GPU- and/or FPGA-programming.
