Principal Quantum Compiler Engineer - 924

Principal Quantum Compiler Engineer - 924 at Quantinuum, US Broomfield, CO. A lead-level full time position in the Quantum Computing Software team, listed under software engineering. We are seeking a Principal Quantum Compiler Engineer in our Broomfield, CO Location. As quantum hardware rapidly scales toward fault-tolerant systems, compiler technology is becoming one of the fundamental enablers of practical quantum computing. At Quantinuum, our compiler team develops critical software that translates our users' groundbreaking quantum applications to hardware-specific operations that execute efficiently on our world-class hardware. We tackle some of the hardest compiler and optimization problems in quantum computing, including scalable routing across trapped-ion architectures, compilation for fault-tolerant quantum systems, and architecture-aware optimizations. With the support of physicists, quantum error correction (QEC) experts, and fellow compiler engineers, we co-design the software stack that will compile algorithms into tailored, executable instructions for our trapped-ion quantum computers. Through this work, we are building the compiler technologies that enable scalable, fault-tolerant quantum computing on increasingly capable hardware. In this hands-on technical leadership role, you will shape the compiler roadmap by architecting, prototyping, and evaluating technologies that advance the languages, tooling, and optimization strategies used to develop and execute programs efficiently on our quantum platforms. You will champion engineering standards and practices through direct technical contributions, feedback, and mentorship and influence how our compiler stack evolves to support increasingly capable quantum hardware. Working closely with key technical leaders, you will co-develop strategies that will enable execution of fault tolerant quantum programs at scale. Through your contributions, you will be a key driver of the strategy shaping key compiler technologies powering the next generation of fault-tolerant quantum computers that will ultimately solve problems beyond the reach of classical computing.
