Aqora Quantum | Sr Full-Stack Engineer (Rust + React) | Paris ONSITE or REMOTE (EU) | €70-90k + equity | https://aqora.io Aqora Quantum is building the algorithm layer of quantum computing: the place where people develop, share, and orchestrate quantum workflows. Hardware gets most of the attention, but the algorithms and the tooling around them are where the field actually becomes useful, and today that work is scattered across notebooks and one-off scripts. We host versioned datasets and reproducible benchmarks so results are comparable, and give teams a way to publish a workflow that someone else can pick up and run. Think Kaggle/Hugging Face, but for quantum. We're a small but growing team, having just raised our seed round, and we're now extending into the US. We're lo…

The AI Productivity Gap

When was the last time you heard about someone talking about "Knowledge Cutoff" dates? OpenAI used to make a huge deal about it every release, now its not even mentioned. We give agents tools, the ability to read a man page, the ability to use web search. Knowledge cut-off is far less important than it used to be.
