<p><span data-contrast="none">Riverlane’s mission is to master quantum error correction (QEC) and unlock a new age of human progress. From advances in material and climate science, to complex chemistry simulation for new drug design, quantum computers will help humanity solve some of its most important challenges. But without QEC, the industry’s defining technical challenge, such breakthroughs can never be achieved. Riverlane is the world leader in QEC technology. QEC is a complex problem that requires a range of skills, talent and passion. </span><span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559740":276}"> </span></p>

<p><span data-contrast="auto">Our Software team’s mission is to enable anyone to be able to write and run a fault tolerant program on a quantum computer. The compiler is a critical part of this toolchain. This role is a fantastic opportunity to help us build and ship this toolchain for use by our hardware partners. The Senior role involves owning and leading parts of the software stack.</span><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span></p>
<p><span data-contrast="auto">You could have a background in computer science, maths or physics. You might have experience in building classical compilers, or in designing fault tolerant logic representations. You will bring your background, experience and passion for learning new things to build Riverlane’s software stack. The stack encodes Riverlane’s novel QEC codes and real-time decoder interfaces into a greenfield, modern LLVM MLIR-based compiler. You will help Riverlane build the critical compilation and runtime systems needed for large-scale fault-tolerant quantum computers.</span><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span></p>
<p><span data-contrast="auto">Riverlane’s mission is exciting, but complex. It requires teams with a wide range of skills and perspectives, that communicate well and collaborate effectively to achieve truly innovative solutions. You will thrive in an environment where knowledge-sharing and continuous learning are the norm. We are moving fast in a brand-new market, where requirements change as the technology evolves, so the ability to adapt is important.</span><span data-ccp-props="{}"> </span></p>
