OUR STORY:

🇪🇺 Join Scaleway and shape the sovereign cloud of tomorrow !

Since 1999, we have been designing secure, sustainable infrastructures aimed at supporting the most ambitious companies.

Historically known for our dedicated servers (Dedibox), we made a strategic shift to cloud computing in 2015. Staying true to our principles of simplicity, flexibility, and technical excellence, we have become one of the leading players in Europe in the sector.

With the rise of artificial intelligence, we have strengthened our commitment, supported by the Iliad Group, which is investing €3 billion to develop a serious, sovereign AI alternative to American and Asian giants.

Every day, thanks to our rich catalog of products and services (bare metal, containerization, serverless, AI, etc.), Scaleway proudly serves 38,000 private and public sector clients, from Photoroom to Mistral AI, Golem AI, and ADEME.

📍 Our offices are located in Paris, Lille, Toulouse, Bordeaux, and Lyon.

WHY WE NEED YOU ?

Our growth is driving us to strengthen our R&D team to explore and prototype new use cases at the intersection of machine learning and quantum computing.

Your mission will be to contribute to the development of experimental software prototypes in order to help assess the viability and relevance of quantum approaches for real-world cloud-native use cases.

YOUR FUTURE TEAM

We work in a collaborative and international environment where the diversity of Scalers, combined with a spirit of sharing, helps bring new projects to life every day, advancing our ambitions together.

You will be part of a small group (2–3 people) working part-time on quantum-related topics, embedded in the broader R&D team. The quantum computing initiative has been an ongoing exploratory project for about a year, and your contribution will help drive it forward.

YOUR DAILY ROUTINE

- Design and develop software prototypes using Python and/or Go

- Explore hybrid quantum/classical ML algorithms (QML) and their potential applications

- Collaborate with quantum hardware and software partners (e.g., Quandela, AQT)

- Document your work and present technical results to the team

- Stay up-to-date with advances in quantum computing and machine learning

- Contribute to public-facing demos or frameworks when relevant

- Propose innovative ideas or alternative approaches

- Adapt quickly to a highly experimental and evolving environment
