ABOUT US

Riverlane’s mission is to make quantum computing useful, sooner. From advances in material science to complex chemistry simulation for drug design and discovery, quantum computers will help solve some of the world’s most important challenges. Riverlane is building the quantum error correction stack, Deltaflow, to make this happen. It’s a complex problem that requires a range of skills, talent and passion.
We recently raised $75M in Series C funding to accelerate our cutting-edge R&D in quantum error correction (QEC), and are partnering with many of the world’s leading quantum hardware providers and government agencies to make fault-tolerant quantum computing a reality. We’re making remarkable progress and growing fast.

WHAT WE NEED

• Proven experience as a System Test Engineer
• Knowledge of Python3, with good understanding of pytest
• Understanding of scripting for networking: connecting remotely to a machine; sending and retrieving data; extract logs.
• Familiarity with hardware development or testing for FPGAs, ASICs, or embedded microcontrollers
• Experience with Continuous Integration
• Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal
• Curiosity to learn new things
• Ability to work collaboratively, with a diverse range of people

ABOUT THE ROLE

At Riverlane, we build new and advanced solutions to solve one of the hardest problems in quantum computing: quantum error correction (QEC). Our cutting-edge solutions must work seamlessly with varying customer requirements, in different environments and for multiple types of quantum computers. To ensure we can achieve this effectively, we rigorously test our innovative software and hardware solutions and measure performance, identifying any integration issues early on.
This is a fantastic opportunity for a proven System Test Engineer to support the critical testing of Riverlane’s groundbreaking products. This role will suit someone who is comfortable with adjusting to new specifications and who is keen to learn how to best support Riverlane’s dedicated verification and testing teams to enable our products, paving the way for innovation.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

Working with the QA team, you will support the testing of our flagship Deltaflow products by running existing tests on our hardware/software regression farms. As you progress in the role, you will have the opportunity to design new tests and implement new ways of working to improve Riverlane’s quality, and/or accelerate our quality assurance cycle.
