Algorithm Engineer - Financial Services
At OQC, we aren’t just theorising about the future; we’re building it. Born from a philosophy of bold innovation, we’ve transitioned quantum computing from an academic ambition into a commercial reality—and we’re just getting started.
The Purpose
Apply your financial-services expertise to build practical algorithms and applications that bring classical and quantum computing together.
As our Algorithm Engineer - Financial Services, you’ll select, adapt and implement methods for banking, fintech and payments applications. Working alongside quantum algorithm engineers, you’ll help connect established approaches with emerging quantum capabilities and assess their practical value against strong classical alternatives.
Your focus will be on turning technical capability into useful applications, combining hands-on implementation with an understanding of what financial-services organisations need from their technology.
The Role
Working within our Product team and reporting to Product and Engineering leadership, you’ll be a senior, hands-on individual contributor collaborating across algorithm engineering, software and technical product development.
