London, United Kingdom Phasecraft Full time

Phasecraft is the quantum algorithms company. We are building the mathematical foundations for quantum computing applications that solve real-world problems. Founded in 2019 by Toby Cubitt, Ashley Montanaro and John Morton, we are based in London and Bristol. In 2023 we completed a £13m Series A funding round led by leading Silicon Valley deep tech VC, Playground Global.

Phasecraft’s unprecedented access to today’s best quantum computers – through partnerships with Google, IBM, Rigetti, and QuEra – provides us with unique opportunities to develop foundational IP, inform the development of next-generation quantum hardware, and accelerate commercialisation of high-value breakthroughs.

As we continue to grow and explore new areas of research an exciting opportunity has arisen to join our talented team as a Technical Lead – Software Engineering. In this newly created role, you will drive the design and development of Phasecraft’s technical infrastructure and software applications. The ideal candidate will be comfortable working in a highly technical, scientific software field and have experience in defining and translating the solutions needed to implement these complex processes. The Technical Lead – Software Engineering will also be tasked with leading the development team in the agile design, development, and implementation of software systems.

  • Manage the design and development of software solutions.
  • Develop and implement software solutions, including troubleshooting, code documentation, and testing.

  • Coach and mentor software engineers and other company members who code.
  • Create and maintain design and code standards.
  • Create overall project plans and track progress.
  • Other activities as required to support the growth and success of Phasecraft.

Phasecraft operates a hybrid working pattern and this role can be based either in Bristol or London, depending on the candidate.

Essential criteria:

  • Enthusiastic about learning new tools and languages.
  • Experience managing end-to-end continuous delivery of both internal and external infrastructure software.
  • Excellent communication skills.
  • Ability to quickly integrate and apply new knowledge.

Desirable criteria:
