Job Summary
In this role, you will develop cloud services for accessing quantum computers, including API design, job management, and security implementations based on an Identity Provider.
Job Technologies
Your role in the team
- You will become part of our Quantum Firmware team as a Cloud Engineer. You will develop the interface through which the world accesses our quantum computers. Users submit quantum programs; your services compile, schedule, and transmit these to our systems and then return the results.
- Develop and operate the cloud services through which users can submit quantum programs to our systems and retrieve their results.
- Develop and implement our compilation pipeline as a scalable cloud service - from circuit input through transpilation to hardware-specific instructions.
- Develop and maintain the public API as well as the SDK interfaces of our platform.
- Implement job queuing, scheduling, and forwarding to hardware backends, including quota management, prioritization, and result processing.
- Take responsibility for authentication and authorization across the entire platform: user and tenant identities, API keys and tokens, as well as role-based access rights to machines, jobs, and results — based on an established Identity Provider, rather than developing everything from scratch.
- Ensure tenant isolation so that quantum programs and results are never visible across client boundaries, and manage secrets and access credentials across the entire stack.
- Collaborate with our Quantum firmware and hardware teams on the interfaces between cloud services and the machines themselves.
- Equip the platform with comprehensive observability and keep an eye on latency, throughput, and costs.

Our expectations of you
Qualifications
- You have solid knowledge in API design (REST and/or gRPC) for services used by other developers.
- You work according to secure engineering principles: Least Privilege as the standard, professional secrets management, and an awareness of risks in the dependency and container supply chain.
- You have a good understanding of the GDPR and data residency requirements, as well as a genuine interest in digital sovereignty.
- You can work effectively with experimental physicists and engineers.
- You are highly adaptable and can quickly familiarize yourself with new topics.
- You have good spoken and written English skills; German language skills are an advantage when working with partners from the public sector.
Experience
- You have at least 3 years of hands-on experience in developing and deploying backend or platform services in production environments.
- You have very good Python skills; additional experience with system-level programming languages such as Go, Rust, or C++ is an advantage.
- You have practical experience with implementing authentication and authorization in production systems, including OAuth 2.0 / OpenID Connect, token handling, and role-based access control.
- You have experience with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Pulumi, or comparable) and CI/CD pipelines (GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, or comparable).
