Careers Join our team

Aliro is developing foundational technologies in Quantum Networking and Communications. As a senior member of our team you will be contributing to this foundation by developing an SDN-based controller for the new field of quantum networking and communications.  We are looking for someone who is motivated, and excited, by the opportunity to engage in a new field of research and engineering that will be transformative. 

What you’ll do:

• Leverage software engineering skills and past experiences to develop a quantum networking software controller. 
• Develop the interfaces to the controller, deployment and update methodologies and ensure the solution is scalable as quantum networks grow in scope and complexity.
• Be an integral part of defining the next generation of quantum infrastructure and technology as you build the tools to make the quantum network a reality.

Required background:

• 5+ years experience developing NMS/SDN products for IP network field
• Leadership experience building a product with a web app/services architecture in a Linux environment. 
• At least 2 years of professional experience programming in Python.
• Knowledge of UNIX or Linux
• Comfortable working in a new field from a ‘blank sheet of paper’.
• Good communication and collaboration skills
• Bachelor’s Degree in CS, Math, EE, or a related field

Preferred background:

• Experience building or integrating with network management/control systems.
• Network architecture experience in planning or deploying multi-layer networks (routers and optical systems)
• Experience with SW/Applications in managing/operating/troubleshooting IP networks
• Familiarity with YANG/NETCONF configuration model and protocol.
• Familiar with Agile development methodologies
• Prior experience in an early stage startup environment is highly desired.

Bonus background:

• Graduate degree in CS, Math, EE, or a related field
• Quantum computing experience or training, either professionally or as a passion
• Experience with contemporary open source NMS and/or SDN controller implementations and deployments. 

Aliro is developing foundational technologies in Quantum Networking and Communications. As a senior member of our team you will be contributing to this foundation by developing a set of communication protocols for the new field of quantum networking and communications.  We are looking for someone who is motivated, and excited, by the opportunity to engage in a new field of research and engineering that will be transformative. 

What you’ll do:

• Leverage software engineering skills and past experiences to develop a set of network protocols as part of a quantum networking control plane stack. 
• Define the interfaces throughout the protocol stack, develop the deployment and update models and ensure the solution is scalable as quantum networks grow in scope and complexity.
• Be an integral part of defining the next generation of quantum infrastructure and technology as you build the tools to make the quantum network a reality.

Required background:

• 5+ years of hands on experience in the design and development of Ethernet bridging or IP routing related software
• At least 2 years of professional experience programming in Python, 2+ years experience with C++.
• Knowledge of UNIX or Linux
• Comfortable working in a new field from a ‘blank sheet of paper’.
• Good communication and collaboration skills
• Bachelor’s Degree in CS, Math, EE, or a related field

Bonus background:

• Familiarity with YANG/NETCONF configuration model and protocol.
• Experience with embedded systems (microcontrollers and FPGA’s)
• Prior experience in an early stage startup environment is highly desired.
• Quantum computing experience or training, either professionally or as a passion
• Graduate degree in CS, Math, EE, or a related field
