Director of Open-Source Software

College Park, MD, US | Full-time | Permanent | Hybrid

Riverlane’s overarching mission is making quantum computing useful sooner. To achieve this goal we need to provide future developers with tools and frameworks that enable great science. As for-profit company, open-source is an investment in our future: we want to grow the quantum community, help them learn this nascent technology and evolve it together. In this role, you will set our direction in this space, driving our open-source efforts, identifying the components that can be used by the community, building them either from zero or by adapting our internal toolboxes and finally disseminating their value.

You will be responsible for Deltakit, our open SDK, driving the teams that develop analysis tools, simulators, visualizers and core components. You will use your technical expertise to set priorities and directions in collaboration with our product team and in line with our business model, effectively shaping and building our products. You will interface with the internal developer community to understand and support them, as well as the global community. Finally, you will identify opportunities to amplify internal efforts and build software that is widely accessible to the global ecosystem.
