* Strong software development skills, particularly in Python and at least one compiled language (C++, Rust, Julia, Haskell, OCaml, etc.).
* Experience with compiler development, type systems, and SSA-based intermediate representations.
* Understanding of quantum computing fundamentals and enthusiasm for building tools for scientists.
* Knowledge of full software lifecycle practices: version control, code review, testing, CI/CD, profiling, and documentation.


Preferred:

* Experience with LLVM, MLIR, or other compiler infrastructures.
* Quantum programming language design or optimization (circuit simplification, scheduling, routing).
* Quantum error correction.
* Familiarity with quantum simulation libraries (Cirq, Qiskit, CUDA Quantum).
