HRL Laboratories | Senior Software Engineer; Software Engineering Manager | Common Lisp | Onsite | Los Angeles, California |
https://quantum.hrl.com/HRL Laboratories is a private, scientific laboratory that has been in business since 1960. We are best known for having created the first working laser.
We are doing R&D on quantum computing, from fabrication to algorithms, all in-house, using exchange-only silicon dot qubits. We are looking for both senior engineering and management to help build out our compiler stack for a quantum programming language. We recently presented it, along with our language-oriented development approach, at the biggest physics conference: APS March Meeting. [1]
The quantum computing group uses Common Lisp, Coalton, Python, C++, and JavaScript to build a state-of-the-art operating system for physicists researching silicon dot quantum computers. Compiler development is done primarily in Lisp.
Those experienced with
- functional programming, and/or Lisp, and/or statically typed ML-descendants;
- compilers, machine architecture;
- and solid undergraduate mathematics and advanced computer science
are most qualified. We can train you on Lisp, Coalton, and quantum if the fundamentals are there.
Interview process: phone call, "take-home" exercise, on-site interview (no whiteboarding), reference checks, and offer.
Candidates must be eligible to obtain and maintain a U.S. security clearance, and must be willing to relocate to southern California.
Example job posting of many: https://jobs.lever.co/dodmg/f3b63da2-41d7-40bb-8f7a-bf8ba041...
Reach out to the email in my profile with a letter and resume, or apply for a role directly through the website.
