Software Developer - R&D Tooling

3+ years of software development experience.

Strong knowledge of Python.

Product-minded approach to software development.

Self-driven to deliver high-quality solutions to your stakeholders.

A desire to learn the fundamentals of a new field in order to cater software solutions.

Experience with simulation & EDA tooling for integrated photonics, or chip design in general.

As a Software Developer, you will contribute to the platform and the infrastructure for our software and hardware products.

You will work on a team to support the photonic integrated circuit research and development at Xanadu.

Your primary goal will be to accelerate software development practices on a primarily hardware-oriented team.

Design, build, deploy, and maintain simulation tooling, data management, and communication software products, including their supporting infrastructure, that enable various parts of our hardware development processes.

Support chip designers with PDK and tapeout development by maintaining high-quality component, documentation and software best practices.

Work closely with photonic engineers, scientists and data analysts to design and implement software solutions to accelerate quantum hardware development and operation.

Xanadu’s mission is to build quantum computers that are useful and available to people everywhere.

At Xanadu, we are learners, innovators, researchers, collaborators and problem solvers. We are creating something that has never been built before.  What we are doing is extremely hard, the classic moon shot. Few people in their life will be able to be a part of something like this, where if we are successful, the technologies we develop will solve some of the world’s most challenging problems and literally change the world. And that is something to be excited about!
