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.&nbsp;&nbsp;Riverlane is the world leader in QEC technology. QEC is a complex problem that requires a range of skills,&nbsp;talent&nbsp;and passion.&nbsp;</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}">&nbsp;</span></p> <p><span class="TextRun SCXW243923852 BCX8" lang="EN-US" data-contrast="none"><span class="NormalTextRun SCXW243923852 BCX8">Having raised more than $125M in funding to date to accelerate our&nbsp;</span><span class="NormalTextRun SCXW243923852 BCX8">cutting-edge</span><span class="NormalTextRun SCXW243923852 BCX8">&nbsp;R&amp;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.&nbsp;</span><span class="NormalTextRun SCXW243923852 BCX8">We’re</span><span class="NormalTextRun SCXW243923852 BCX8">&nbsp;making remarkable progress and growing fast. </span></span><span class="EOP SCXW243923852 BCX8" data-ccp-props="{}">&nbsp;</span></p> <p><strong>About the role&nbsp;</strong></p> <p>The Senior Embedded Systems Software Engineer bridges the gap between Riverlane and its customers. They act as the primary technical interface for customer’s engineers and guide them through product integration and help with trouble shooting complex quantum systems.<br><br>As an Embedded Software Engineer on the Systems Team, you will configure our Deltaflow Hardware to connect to the Quantum Computer allowing it to provide a low-latency, high throughput system that performs complex operations in a predictable and guaranteed way. You will develop our software stack to work with customers quantum computers. You will ensure our customers can run quantum experiments, implement Riverlane’s quantum errors correction algorithm and debug any issues that arise.<br><br>This is a fantastic opportunity to join a team that is developing the world’s most advanced quantum error correcting algorithms and QEC Hardware. The Riverlane team is a mix of mathematicians, physicists and engineers, working together on a range of exciting and cutting-edge QEC projects.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>What you will
