IonQ | Senior Research Software Engineer | Boston, MA (ONSITE - Hybrid) | Full-time

We are looking for a Senior Research Software Engineer for our Global R&D team at IonQ. You'd build the software our quantum scientists rely on for lab orchestration, experiment data, and hardware control. If you've written software that talks to real instruments and wrangles real, messy, physical-world data, this might be for you.

Looking for: 5+ years of experience, strong Python skills, ownership of the full software development lifecycle, observability, and CI/CD. Hardware or lab-data experience is the bar.

No physics background is required!

I love the recent increase in TUI-based tooling. This looks cool - will check it out!

I play OW2 on Linux with Steam + Proton and I was having this issue a while back but somehow fixed it. I think it was by increasing the shader cache size! Happy to find the exact instructions that I did to fix it once I’m back on that PC.

This is what I used when I first learning: https://serversforhackers.com/

For a really good practical project: build a website, then host it on your mini-PC and find a way to expose it to the internet. This will teach you a lot about DNS, proxying, building websites, managing the server (via some config management or container), monitoring, etc.

I’ve started to use jj much more often (and actually used this tutorial to get me started!). I do wish its interaction with Nix flakes is less annoying though, but that’s not the fault jj.

Have you taken a look at https://github.com/nix-community/srvos ? It’s a collection of profiles for servers by the Numtide folks.

I'll have to go find it next time I'm in SF then. :-)

> I was shocked when I first encountered it: "What eldritch thing broods in a windowless skyscraper?"

That was my exact reaction!

This is my favorite style of architecture. I only really came to appreciate it after seeing 33 Thomas Street in NYC in person: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/33_Thomas_Street

If you’re ever in NYC, I highly recommend going to check it out.

Congrats on the launch! Will definitely have to check it out. I see you’re using Phoenix/Liveview for the control plane. :-) How has that been working for you?

Counter-point: walking and taking public transit became considerably _more_ interesting for me once I became fully remote. However, I do live in an area with walkable amenities (coffee shops, grocery stores, etc).

Was also curious, so I did some digging. This is the inventor’s thoughts on this: https://chaos.social/@jacqueline/111869403759610817
