Description du poste

Alice & Bob is developing the first universal, fault-tolerant quantum computer to solve the world’s hardest problems.

The quantum computer we envision building is based on a new kind of superconducting qubit: the Schrödinger cat qubit 🐈⬛. In comparison to other superconducting platforms, cat qubits have the astonishing ability to implement quantum error correction autonomously!

We're a diverse team of 140+ brilliant minds from over 20 countries united by a single goal: to revolutionise computing with a practical fault-tolerant quantum machine. Are you ready to take on unprecedented challenges and contribute to revolutionising technology? Join us, and let's shape the future of quantum computing together!

The Cloud team empowers quantum hardware with software, creating tools for users. We seek a Senior Software Engineer to architect, mentor, and lead product delivery.

As a Senior Software Engineer, you'll design, build, and deploy full-stack apps for quantum hardware access. You'll contribute to technical decisions, mentor juniors, and shape our application architecture.

Responsibilities

Design and implement new services and APIs in Python (FastAPI)

Contribute to and maintain our React-based frontend applications (SPAs)

Work on internal tools that enable teams to monitor and interact with our quantum chips

Collaborate with low-level software engineers to expose hardware functionality through higher-level interfaces

Facilitate code reviews and guide junior team members

Define and enforce best practices in architecture, testing, deployment, and monitoring

Help improve our CI/CD pipeline and deployment process (GitLab CI, Ansible, Docker/Podman)

Contribute to deployment and infrastructure decisions for both on-prem and cloud (GCP, OVH) environments

Participate in sprint planning, design discussions, and roadmap definition

Requirements

3+ years of experience as a software engineer in a cloud environment

Strong backend experience with modern Python, FastAPI and asynchronous programming

Comfortable with React and SPAs

Experience with containers, CI/CD, Ansible

Familiar with Kubernetes, on-prem or cloud, and VM-based setups

Mentor others, lead by example, support a growing team

User focused, deliver maintainable, well documented software

We're Also Looking For

Experience working in high-performance computing, hardware control systems, or quantum/physics-driven and product-driven environments

Contributions to open-source projects

Familiarity with GitLab (projects, issues, CI/CD)

Understanding of authentication and user access control (OAuth2, Keycloak)

Benefits

- Our success is your success : own it with our BSPCE plan

- Direct IP Compensation: Earn substantial bonuses for driving the core patents that define our quantum architecture.

- Flexible remote policy, up to 40% a month

- A parental plan including additional benefits such as crèche support or additional days-off to take care of under 12 years old children

- Subsidized membership with Urban Sports Club

- Mental health support with moka.care

- 25-day vacation policy (as per French law) + RTT

- Half of transportation cost coverage (as per French law), or yearly allowance for the die-hard bicycle users

- Competitive health coverage, with Alan

- Meal vouchers with Swile, as well as access to a fully equipped and regularly stocked kitchen

- French language courses covered by the company for those interested

Research shows that women might feel hesitant to apply for this job if they don't match 100% of the job requirements listed. This list is a guide, and we'd love to receive your application even if you think you're only a partial match. We are looking to build teams that innovate, not just tick boxes on a job spec.

You will join one of the most innovative startups in France at an early stage, to be part of a passionate and friendly team on its mission to build the first universal quantum computer!

We love to share and learn from one another, so you will be certain to innovate, develop new ideas, and have the space to grow.
