Senior Software Manager

Lead the team behind quantum computers that are already running in data centres.

We’re working with a fast-growing quantum computing company in central London whose systems are deployed with customers worldwide. They’re hiring a Software Manager to own the software that controls and operates those systems, and to lead the team that builds it. It’s a senior role reporting directly to the CEO.

The role

• Lead the architecture and direction of the full software stack, taking it to production grade for data-centre integration
• Set the strategy for the developer SDK and APIs used by customers and the open source community
• Manage and develop the software team, setting priorities and standards
• Own the software roadmap with commercial and technical teams
• Lead escalations and root-cause analysis for customer systems
• Bring in shipping-product disciplines: testing, CI/CD, release management and observability

You’ll bring

• 10+ years shipping production software, including managing engineering teams
• Deep experience with software that controls hardware: real-time, instrument control, embedded or FPGA integration
• Strong Python plus C++ and/or Rust, with solid Linux knowledge
• HPC or data-centre integration experience
• Experience supporting customers with deployed systems

Nice to have: Quantum control stacks or CUDA-Q, signal processing and timing, and backgrounds in defence, aerospace, telecoms or deep tech scale-ups.

Working pattern: On-site in central London four days a week, with 3–4 international trips a year.
