Quantum Software Engineer - Algorithms & Applications

Infleqtion is a global quantum technology company solving the world’s most challenging problems. The company harnesses quantum mechanics to build and integrate quantum computers, sensors, and networks. From fundamental physics to leading edge commercial products, Infleqtion enables “quantum everywhere” through our ecosystem of devices and platforms. Our mission is to commercialise atom-based quantum products that provide orders of magnitude improvements in performance and computing applications.

Infleqtion is seeking a Quantum Software Engineer to develop cutting-edge applications and algorithms for next-generation quantum computers. In this role, you will design, implement, and optimize quantum algorithms across domains such as simulation, optimization, sensing-enhanced workflows, and hybrid quantum-classical computation. You will work closely with hardware, control, and research teams to translate theoretical advances into performant, executable workloads, leveraging modern quantum SDKs, compiler toolchains, and resource estimation frameworks. The ideal candidate combines strong foundations in quantum algorithms and computational mathematics with practical software engineering expertise, enabling them to build scalable, testable, and high-impact quantum applications that push the boundaries of near-term and fault-tolerant quantum systems.
