Job Description
You will be working on testing and improving our quantum software development platform. You will focus on creating and implementing API and E2E tests, as well as contributing to the development of QA processes and best practices. Ideally you will have experience of testing complex web applications, or developing and testing scientific computing software.
This position requires a background in computer science and software testing. Familiarity with quantum computing is a plus, but not essential.

• Strong understanding of the complete software life cycle.
• Comfortable and experienced working on software with a team, communicating ideas, reviewing and writing code.
• Experience with collaboration tools (e.g. version control, bug tracking systems) and general programming tools (e.g. a debugger, profiler, software testing tools).
• A 2:1 degree or higher in Mathematics, Computer Science, Science, or Engineering.
Desirable Skills
• Experience with other quantum software development platforms.
• Experience with API and SDK testing.
• Familiarity with testing microservices in dockerized environments.
• Experience in performance testing.
• A Master’s degree or Ph.D. in Mathematics, Computer Science, Science, or Engineering
