The work focuses on hard optimisation and decision-making problems across sectors such as defence and national security, logistics and supply chain, telecommunications, energy and financial services. Some defence projects may be classified or export-controlled and will be delivered under the associated handling and security requirements.\nYou Will Work On\nTranslate customer challenges, data and constraints into mathematical and computational models.\nIdentify problems suited to probabilistic computing: optimisation, sampling, simulation, inference and decision support, including use cases such as mission planning, routing and scheduling, sensor and resource allocation, network planning, secure logistics and portfolio optimisation.\nBuild Python prototypes on Quantum Dice’s simulators, software stack and PPU hardware, plus reusable code and solution templates.\nApply QUBO, Ising models, Bayesian networks, Boltzmann machines, Monte Carlo and stochastic optimisation.\nBenchmark against classical solvers, CPUs and GPUs, and evaluate solution quality, runtime, scalability and commercial value.\nDeliver technical reports, demonstrations and proof-of-concepts, and support proposals, customer workshops and technical sales discussions.\nWork within relevant defence programme constraints, including security classification, export control, data handling and customer accreditation.\nFeed customer requirements back into Quantum Dice’s product, algorithm and hardware roadmaps.\nWho You Are\nRequired\nTechnical degree in Physics, Computer Science, Applied Mathematics, Engineering or Operations Research.\nStrong Python skills and some experience in optimisation, probabilistic modelling, simulation or statistical inference.\nAble to turn open-ended business problems into structured technical models.\nClear communicator who presents results honestly, without overstating them.\nEnjoys the commercial side as much as the modelling: working directly with customers in a fast-moving deep-tech environment.\nDesirable\nMSc or PhD in a relevant discipline.\nKnowledge of QUBO, Ising models, Bayesian inference, MCMC or energy-based models.\nExperience with solvers such as Gurobi, CPLEX, OR-Tools or Pyomo, or stochastic methods such as simulated annealing.\nCustomer-facing proof-of-concept delivery, ideally in a deep-tech startup.\nDomain experience in defence, aerospace, government, logistics, telecoms, energy or financial services.\nWhy Join Quantum Dice?\nAt Quantum Dice, we're building more than just hardware but creating a new category of computing.\nYou'll join a team of physicists, engineers, mathematicians and entrepreneurs working to bring probabilistic computing into real-world deployment. You will work directly with leading organisations, influence the future direction of the ORBIT\nplatform and help define how a fundamentally new computing architecture is applied to optimisation, decision-making and AI challenges in some of the world's most demanding operational environments.","description_format":"text","description_chars":3500,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"phd","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Processors, MCUs & AI Chips"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-11-13T19:20:26Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":0,"expected_fill_days":26,"reasons":["conf:1","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-11-13T20:26:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/quantum-dice-solutions-engineer-2","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/quantum-dice-solutions-engineer-2.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-13T20:26:00Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":40744,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-14T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":2255431},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=2255431"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fquantum-dice-solutions-engineer-2"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"free","price":{"credits":0,"usd":0},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fquantum-dice-solutions-engineer-2"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fquantum-dice-solutions-engineer-2"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/quantum-dice-solutions-engineer-2\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fquantum-dice-solutions-engineer-2"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":4277090}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"quantum-dice.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":4277090},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
