Quantum computing experience is NOT a requirement.
Are you an experienced DevOps Engineer looking for the opportunity to work with genuinely cutting-edge technology?
We’re partnering with a fast-growing deep-tech scaleup in the quantum technology space to recruit a DevOps Engineer — and you do not need a background in quantum computing, physics or quantum technology to be considered.
What we’re looking for is strong DevOps and infrastructure engineering experience, a passion for automation and the ability to work alongside highly technical engineering teams. You’ll learn the quantum side on the job.
About the company:
Our client is helping accelerate the development of scalable quantum computers. They build advanced quantum control systems used by leading laboratories and quantum startups around the world.
Their technology sits directly alongside quantum processors, providing the control and readout capabilities needed to run sophisticated quantum experiments.
It’s a unique environment where software engineering, hardware and cutting-edge scientific research come together.
About the role:
You’ll join a growing DevOps team working across FPGA, embedded systems and high-level software.
This is a hands-on role with plenty of scope to make an impact. You’ll build and improve CI/CD pipelines, automate infrastructure, improve reliability and help engineering teams adopt modern DevOps practices.
There’s a substantial technical backlog and plenty of opportunity to influence how DevOps is done as the company scales.
What you’ll be doing:
Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines across FPGA, embedded and software projects
Automate build, testing and deployment workflows
Improve infrastructure reliability, scalability and monitoring
Work with Podman, Ansible, Terraform, GCP, libvirt and QEMU/KVM
Implement secure DevOps practices
Support governance, compliance and change-control requirements
Partner with engineering teams to improve development and delivery processes
Help teams adopt DevOps practices and continuous improvement
Contribute to backlog management and help shape ways of working
What we’re looking for:
3+ years’ experience in DevOps, Infrastructure Engineering or a similar role
Strong experience with CI/CD, build automation and deployment
Hands-on experience with containers such as Podman, Docker or similar
Experience with Terraform and/or Ansible
Cloud experience, ideally GCP
Strong Linux and scripting skills
Understanding of security, compliance and governance within DevOps
Strong communication and collaboration skills
A proactive, hands-on approach to solving technical problems
It would be a bonus if you have:
Experience with libvirt, QEMU or KVM
Exposure to FPGA or embedded development environments
Experience driving DevOps adoption across engineering teams
Experience in semiconductors, hardware, scientific instrumentation or other deep-tech environments
Experience working in a high-growth startup or scaleup.
