About this role

Scientific Software Engineer — Emulation & Application Boston, MA, USA Summary QuEra Computing Inc. is building the world's most scalable quantum computers using neutral-atom technology. Based in Boston and founded by the pioneers of neutral-atom quantum platforms at Harvard and MIT, QuEra is developing quantum computers that push the boundaries of what is computationally possible - from materials science and drug discovery to machine learning. QuEra is seeking a Scientific Software Engineer to develop and maintain our in-house quantum hardware emulator and support application research building on top of and utilizing the emulation toolchain. In this role, you will implement high-performance quantum circuit simulation backends, build tooling that enables researchers to rapidly prototype and validate quantum algorithms, and contribute to the software infrastructure that bridges our hardware capabilities with real-world applications. This role sits at the intersection of scientific computing and quantum application development. You will help shape the emulation layer that underpins algorithm design, hardware benchmarking, and customer-facing demonstrations - providing researchers, both internal and external, a faithful, fast model of QuEra's quantum processors. You will work closely with application scientists, experimental scientists, and the compiler team, collaborating on topics from noise modeling and Hamiltonian simulation to algorithm co-design for neutral-atom architectures. Responsibilities - Develop, test, and optimize core components of QuEra's in-house quantum hardware emulator, including state-vector, tensor-network, and pulse-level simulation backends. - Write performance-critical code in Rust, C++, and/or CUDA to run large-scale simulations on GPU clusters and HPC infrastructure. - Collaborate with application researchers to prototype,
