Quantum Software Engineer

Quantum Software Engineer

At OQC, we aren’t just theorising about the future; we’re building it. Born from a philosophy of bold innovation, we’ve successfully transitioned quantum computing from an academic dream into a commercial reality. The most exciting thing is that we’re just getting started and we’ve recently closed our £260 million Series C funding round – the largest fundraise ever completed by a quantum computing company in Europe.

The Purpose

As a Quantum Software Engineer, you'll turn quantum algorithms and research prototypes into robust, production-quality software. You'll bridge the gap between quantum research and classical engineering, building the software foundations that allow quantum workloads to be integrated, compiled, executed, tested and operated reliably as part of larger applications.

The Role

Based in London, you'll work across the quantum and classical software stack, partnering with quantum algorithm specialists, platform engineers, infrastructure teams and application developers.

You'll take promising quantum use cases beyond the research prototype—building reusable software components, integrating them with production infrastructure and solving problems across the full execution path, from application code and circuit compilation through to simulators and QPUs.

This is a role for an engineer who understands quantum computing but
