About the Job

Requirements

A Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field is required.
At least 4 years of experience in DevOps, platform, site reliability engineering, or build/release engineering is required.
Strong Linux administration and scripting skills, including Bash and Python, are required.
Hands-on experience with continuous integration and continuous delivery using GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or Jenkins, along with Docker and Kubernetes or similar tools, is required.
Experience with infrastructure as code using Terraform and Ansible across on-premises and cloud environments such as AWS, Azure, or GCP is required.
Solid networking and security fundamentals are required.
Fluent English and the ability to work with physicists, hardware engineers, and software engineers are required.

Responsibilities

Own continuous integration and delivery, build, and release pipelines for the quantum software stack, including Python and C/C++, simulator testing, and hardware-in-the-loop testing.
Automate the flow of data from lab instruments and measurement setups into central storage, with experiment tracking and traceability.
Design data infrastructure that scales across sites, including storage, backup, retention, and access policies.
Manage lab and engineering compute as code, and run observability including logging, metrics, and alerting for internal services.
Progressively support the system-on-chip and hardware modeling team with simulation compute, job scheduling, license servers, and regression pipelines.
Evaluate and, if pursued, build GPU infrastructure for machine-learning and large language model training and serving.
Work with the IT Manager on identity, networking, security, and cloud accounts so DevOps and IT form one coherent setup.

Desired Qualifications

Experience with high-performance computing, electronic design automation, or scientific computing environments such as Slurm and license servers.
Experience with lab automation or data acquisition using QCoDeS or PyVISA, and experiment tracking using ClearML or MLflow.
Experience with data engineering involving object storage, HDF5/Parquet, or PostgreSQL, or with GPU/machine-learning infrastructure.

Equal1 is building silicon-based quantum computers, integrating spin qubits and cryo-CMOS control electronics on standard semiconductor processes. We are looking for a DevOps / Platform Engineer to join our team in Timișoara and build infrastructure for the whole company, across all our sites, with a focus on our full-stack software framework and our measurement activities. You will work closely with our IT Manager from day one. Over time, the role will also support our SoC / hardware modeling team.

Main Duties and Responsibilities

Own CI/CD, build and release pipelines for the quantum software stack (Python, C/C++), including simulator and hardware-in-the-loop testing.
Automate the flow of data from lab instruments and measurement setups into central storage, with experiment tracking and traceability.
Design data infrastructure that scales across sites: storage, backup, retention and access policies.
Manage lab and engineering compute as code, and run observability (logging, metrics, alerting) for internal services.
Progressively support the SoC / HW modeling team with simulation compute, job scheduling, license servers and regression pipelines.
Evaluate and, if pursued, build GPU infrastructure for ML / LLM training and serving.
Work with the IT Manager on identity, networking, security and cloud accounts, so DevOps and IT form one coherent setup.

Experience and Qualifications

Required:

Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering or a related field.
4+ years of experience in DevOps, platform, SRE or build/release engineering.
Strong Linux administration and scripting skills (Bash, Python).
Hands-on experience with CI/CD (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI or Jenkins), Docker and Kubernetes or similar.
Infrastructure as code (Terraform, Ansible) across on-premises and cloud (AWS, Azure or GCP).
Solid networking and security fundamentals.
Fluent English and the ability to work with physicists, hardware and software engineers.

Desired:

Experience with HPC, EDA or scientific computing environments (Slurm, license servers).
Lab automation or data acquisition (QCoDeS, PyVISA) and experiment tracking (ClearML, MLflow).
Data engineering (object storage, HDF5/Parquet, PostgreSQL) or GPU / ML infrastructure.

If you want to build the platform behind a quantum computer from the ground up, we'd love to hear from you.

About the Company

Equal1

Desktop quantum computer hardware using CMOS

Equal1 builds a desktop quantum computer that runs qubits at elevated temperatures using CMOS technology. The system trades some quantum coherence time for rapid spin-flip operations and on-chip control/detection, enabling fast, integrated management of quantum states. By using standard CMOS processes, it aims to deliver scalable quantum hardware that fits a desktop footprint and integrates with conventional electronics. Unlike rivals who rely on cryogenic setups or separate control hardware, Equal1 centers on hot-qubit CMOS to provide a compact semiconductor-based quantum platform. The goal is to give clients a readily usable quantum computer with higher processing capacity that can be deployed in typical office or lab environments.
