About Quantum Brilliance

Quantum Brilliance is the world leader in room-temperature quantum computing using synthetic diamonds. Our unique vision is to make quantum computing available as an everyday technology, from data centres to remote and mobile systems like autonomous robots and satellites. In contrast to quantum computers that fill a room, we are developing quantum accelerators with more compute power than a classical supercomputer but in a form factor smaller than a lunchbox.

Founded in 2019 by leaders in diamond quantum science from the Australian National University, we are a full-stack quantum computing company. An Australia-German company, our HQs are in Canberra and Stuttgart, with additional locations across eastern Australia and southern Germany. We are working with global technology leaders to develop quantum computing applications, integrate quantum with high-performance computing, solve materials science challenges and develop ultra-precise semiconductor manufacturing and quantum control techniques. We are backed by leading venture capital funds and major research and technology institutes.

What we do in our Stuttgart Lab

In Stuttgart, we are working to bring all the pieces together to build the Integrated Quantum Chip. This new chip is based on diamond and contains the core components for harnessing the power of quantum technologies. You will be joining the team who develop, optimize and maintain the backend software required for testing, characterizing and running our quantum computing test systems and early-stage products. This team work closely with the Quantum Engineers designing and building our quantum computing systems.

Your role:

The Software Engineer will be responsible for developing scalable backend services, designing RESTful APIs, and ensuring efficient system performance. You will also build and maintain CI/CD pipelines, automate infrastructure provisioning, and optimize system security and reliability.

Your tasks will include:

• Developing scalable backend services

• Designing RESTful APIs

• Ensuring efficient system performance

• Building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines

• Automating infrastructure provisioning

• Optimizing system security and reliability

Your key responsibilities will be:

• Backend development & API design

• CI/CD & automation

• Infrastructure & container management

• System performance optimization

About you:

We would love you to have:

• Proven experience in DevOps.

• Proficiency in CI/CD tools.

• Experience in backend development using modern programming languages like Python.

• Familiarity with designing and consuming RESTful APIs.

• Understanding of event-driven architecture and asynchronous processing.

• Knowledge of databases and data management techniques (SQL and NoSQL).

• You can work independently and as part of a team in a fast-paced, high-tech environment. You are self-motivated, well-organized, and meticulous in following procedures.

• You are eager to learn and adapt quickly to new challenges.

• You speak English; German is a plus.

What we offer:

• Exciting work at the intersection of research and application, with diverse tasks in a dynamic, team-oriented environment.

• Ideally the position would be full-time employment with a fixed term till the end of November 2025.

• With this role it is intended to be On-site within our Stuttgart Lab (Some flexible hybrid conditions are available but ideally you would be located in the Stuttgart area)

• Space for your ideas – be creative and make a real impact!
