Software engineer

The mission of TU Delft's Quantum and Computer Engineering (QCE) department is to invent, design, prototype and demonstrate the potential of disruptive computing engines by harnessing unique features of emerging devices, e.g., qubits, memristors, spintronics, and graphene. Building such computing engines requires a full-stack interdisciplinary approach, encompassing fabrication and operation of qubits, electronic circuit design, micro-architecture, programming models, compilers and simulation platforms.

As a Software Engineer, you will work in an international team of scientists with different domain expertise, PhD students, MSc students, and other engineers. Your main responsibilities and activities include the development, realisation, testing and management of complex software tools and frameworks that support research in Quantum & Computer Engineering. You will participate in (national and EU) research projects and contribute to both the scientific and engineering level, e.g., perform experiments to test scientific hypotheses; design, implementation and verification of complex software; and contributing to research papers. You will advise the management about the necessary investments in computing systems, tools and software and support, coach and instruct QCE researchers and students from a Computer Science point of view. You will manage and execute your assigned project tasks, and report the results to the project leader and users.
