Independently design, implement, validate, and maintain embedded and systems‑level software subsystems supporting real‑time quantum error correction and control.
Translate quantum error‑correction requirements (code distance, syndrome rates, latency budgets) into concrete classical compute, memory, and interconnect requirements.
Design systems that meet deterministic latency, bandwidth, and reliability requirements across CPU, GPU, FPGA, and high‑speed interconnect domains.
Serve as the technical point‑of‑contact for NVIDIA NVQLink integration, including topology, bandwidth modeling, latency characterization, and failure modes.
Collaborate closely with Quantum Software, Physics, Electrical, and Systems Engineering to co‑design hardware/software interfaces.
Troubleshoot and resolve complex performance, scaling, and integration issues spanning firmware, drivers, OS (Embedded Linux / bare-metal environments), GPU runtimes, and hardware.
Develop and maintain validation infrastructure, performance benchmarks, and test harnesses for deterministic behavior and scaling.
Provide informal mentorship through design reviews, code reviews, and technical guidance.

Requirements

A degree (PhD preferred) in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related field with experience in high-performance computing (HPC).
Demonstrated experience owning complex embedded or systems‑level software subsystems end‑to‑end.
Strong experience with C/C++ in performance‑critical systems.
Experience debugging across software and hardware boundaries (drivers, firmware, interconnects, timing).
Solid understanding of computer architecture fundamentals (memory hierarchies, interconnects, latency vs throughput tradeoffs).
Experience with hardware/software co‑design for quantum control systems
Experience working in Linux‑based embedded or HPC environments.
Familiarity with GPU programming models (CUDA or equivalent) at a systems level.
