The Quantum Runtime Framework Intern 2027 joins the IBM Quantum team to enhance the local developer experience regarding automated bringup and integration testing of software components that orchestrate low-level quantum job execution. The role involves designing and implementing Bazel-based build and test workflows, maintaining local Kubernetes environments like K3s or Minikube to replicate production scenarios, and containerizing integration test pipelines using Docker. Collaborating with runtime, compiler, and systems software teams is essential to identify and close developer experience gaps. Candidates should possess skills in Rust, Docker, Git, Linux, and command-line environments. Preferred qualifications include experience with Bazel, CI/CD pipelines, observability tools like Prometheus, MQTT, and Grafana, as well as familiarity with quantum computing concepts. This role focuses on the technical infrastructure required to support large-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computer software components.
