Résumé du poste

Alice & Bob, a pioneering quantum computing startup in France, seeks a Senior HPC Engineer to scale and optimize our chip simulation workflows. You will design and maintain high-performance scientific software and compute backends supporting quantum chip design and calibration.

Requirements include a PhD or Master’s in scientific computing or related field, 5+ years in production-grade software with 2+ years in industry, and strong Python, JAX and Rust expertise, plus MPI/OpenMP and GPU work.

Qualifications

• PhD or Master’s degree in scientific computing, applied mathematics, or computer science.
• 5+ years of experience in designing, developing, testing, maintenance, and performance optimization of production-grade scientific software, including a minimum of 2 years in an industrial environment.
• Strong programming expertise in Python, JAX and Rust.
• Demonstrated HPC skills, spanning CPU parallelization (MPI, OpenMP), GPU computing, scheduling and orchestration of workloads across heterogeneous systems, performance profiling and optimization.
• Good knowledge of finite precision arithmetics and numerical methods for linear algebra.
• Professional-level English proficiency, both written and spoken.

Responsabilités

• Drive performance improvements of scientific computing tools using SOTA HPC techniques across CPU and GPU architectures in both cloud and on-premises environments.
• Profile, diagnose, and resolve performance bottlenecks at all levels (e.g., algorithm design, software implementation, hardware-level optimization).
• Build and scale distributed simulation pipelines to support increasingly complex quantum system models.
