The successful candidate will join the quantum electronic design automation (EDA) effort at IBM Quantum and participate in development of the cutting-edge tools being used for designing quantum processor and testsite modules targeting IBM's proprietary superconducting technology. The role will be responsible for software engineering in support of the internal EDA ecosystem used to deliver IBM's flagship quantum processing units. The toolset of interest includes both internally developed software and industry-standard tools for hardware design, and the role requires strong spatial reasoning skills in addition to a core foundation in modern software engineering. Experience with EDA tool usage or development in the areas of routing and circuit optimization is strongly desired. Experience with quantum computing hardware is also a bonus, but not required. Because the role includes collaboration between several diverse and dynamic teams of technical and operations personnel, good communication skills, initiative, and a strong sense of responsibility are key.

Responsibilities include:

  • Building user-friendly, robust software tools for making quantum computing hardware
  • Participation in architecture development for hardware design methodologies
  • Verification of tools using software development best practices
  • Active support/debug for tool end-users
