Role
Who you are
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science or related discipline
- Understanding of Digital Logic Design
- Some familiarity with HDL languages (e.g. Verilog, SystemVerilog) and simulation tools
- Good communication and problem-solving skills
- Women and other underrepresented groups may be less likely to apply for a role unless they meet all or nearly all of the requirements. If this applies to you, we still encourage you to apply - you may be a great fit, even if you don’t meet every single qualification. We’d love to hear from you
Desirable
- Relevant academic projects/internships/work experience
- Exposure to scripting languages such as Python
- Understanding of Object-Oriented Programming
- Exposure to UVM
What the job involves
- We have an exceptional opportunity for a Graduate Verification Engineer to join our talented team of hardware designers and embedded software engineers. Together, you’ll deliver fully verified, high-performance, and trusted systems
- In this exciting role you'll have end-to-end visibility across the entire stack, owning different aspects of verification and shaping how quality and reliability are built into our cutting-edge technology. You do not need a background in quantum computing! You will learn this along the way
- Help with developing and executing verification plans for hardware blocks in Quantum Error Correction Systems
- Learn and support the creation of testbenches using SystemVerilog and UVM
- Run simulations and perform debugging to resolve issues in collaboration with the design team
- Collaborate with multi-disciplinary teams to understand specifications and define verification strategies for Quantum Error Correction systems
- Learn and apply best practices in verification to make methodology improvements
Application process
- Please upload a CV and covering letter by clicking 'Apply'. Your covering letter should explain why you are applying for the job and what skills and experience you can bring to the role
- We review CVs as we receive them and interview as soon as we have applications that look like a good match. We do not use closing dates. So, please apply as soon as possible to avoid missing out on this role
Our take
Whilst quantum computing is known for its precision, the machines used are small and prone to errors. Quantum error correction is the term given to the use of algorithms to fix errors in quantum computing, which Riverlane delivers through its quantum error correction software called Dataflow.
Dataflow was built by what Riverlane describes as the "world’s largest dedicated quantum error correction team". The product consists of proprietary QEC chips, hardware and software that work together to correct billions of errors every second. This will help to deliver a vast improvement upon modern quantum computers which can only perform a few hundred quantum operations before an error occurs.
Riverlane has enjoyed substantial funding which will allow the company to set out on its long-term road map. With such comprehensive expertise and a product that will aid companies and researchers for years to come, Riverlane will no doubt play an integral part of the future of quantum computing.
