Cambridge, UK | Full-time | Permanent Salary: £81,000 - £95,000 DOE About us 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. Having raised more than $125M in funding to date to accelerate our cutting-edge R&D in quantum error correction (QEC), Riverlane partners with many of the world’s leading quantum hardware providers and government agencies to make fault-tolerant quantum computing a reality. We are making remarkable progress and growing fast. About the role At Riverlane, our mission is to make it possible for anyone to write and run fault-tolerant programs on a quantum computer. A key part of that mission is Deltakit , our open-source, user-facing platform for building, simulating and interpreting QEC experiments. As a Senior Software Engineer, you will own and lead the development of Deltakit , shaping its direction and ensuring it evolves to meet the needs of a growing and highly technical user community. This role sits at the intersection of research and engineering. You will take cutting-edge ideas from the forefront of QEC and turn them into robust, intuitive software that researchers can rely on. Day to day, this means driving the design and delivery of new features, improving performance and usability, and ensuring the platform scales as adoption grows. You’ll play a key role in planning and prioritising the development roadmap, aligning technical delivery with research milestones, user needs, and broader organisational goals, as well as defining technical direction, making architectural decisions, and setting the standard for high-quality, well-engineered code. You will also be closely connected to the people who use what we build. By engaging with researchers, engineers and the wider QEC community, you’ll help support adoption of Deltakit , understand how it’s being used in practice, and translate real-world feedback into meaningful improvements. You’ll also play a key role in planning and prioritising the development roadmap, aligning technical delivery with research milestones, user needs, and broader organisational goals. Through this, you’ll ensure the software not only reflects the latest research, but is accessible, reliable and impactful. Riverlane operates at the forefront of a fast-moving and evolving field. You’ll work as part of a collaborative, multidisciplinary team where ideas are shared openly and learning is continuous. As priorities shift and the technology develops, you’ll help guide the platform forward through both technical leadership and thoughtful planning, bringing clarity, direction and momentum to complex challenges, and playing a central role in advancing Riverlane’s leadership in QEC software. What you will do • Lead significant parts of both the internal and external software stack for error-corrected quantum computing systems • Turn internal tools into external and public ones. Own the complete software cycle process: design, development, testing, builds, workflows, releases • Mentor, guide and lead engineers in the team • Lead collaboration with other engineering teams to integrate their software and hardware artifacts with <a href="https://gi
