Senior HPC and Quantum Systems Engineer

What you'll do

• Build and operate a hybrid platform integrating large-scale GPU clusters with physical quantum processors.
• Integrate quantum control systems into HPC infrastructure using tools like CUDA-Q, cuQuantum, and Slurm.
• Manage the reliability, performance, and lifecycle of Linux systems, networking, storage, and QPU hardware.
• Coordinate with facilities teams to ensure power, cooling, and low-latency connectivity meet quantum requirements.
• Serve as the technical interface for quantum hardware partners to manage system bring-up and integration.
• Define hosting and architecture requirements for new quantum systems entering the facility.
• Optimize and benchmark hybrid workloads across simulation, error correction, and machine learning applications.
• Prototype and document end-to-end workflows to demonstrate platform capabilities to internal researchers.

What we're looking for

• 12+ years of hands-on experience operating HPC or large-scale compute infrastructure in production environments.
• Bachelor’s degree or Master’s degree in Physics, Electrical/Computer Engineering, or Computer Science (PhD preferred).
• Strong background in Linux systems administration and job schedulers like Slurm.
• Proven experience working in data center environments including networking, storage, power, and operational constraints.
• Familiarity with quantum computing concepts and hardware architectures such as neutral atom, trapped ion, superconducting, and photonic.
• Experience or strong interest in quantum software environments including CUDA-Q, Qiskit, Cirq, PennyLane, Braket, or similar.
• Direct experience integrating or hosting physical quantum hardware in a data center or HPC environment (preferred).
• Deep knowledge of quantum–classical orchestration, low-latency data paths, and scientific application support (preferred).
