Creative Technologist

• Build rapid prototypes, demos, and experimental applications using Moth’s core quantum technologies, repos and APIs.
• Collaborate directly with artists, musicians, designers, and other creative partners to bring their ideas to life through hands-on technical development.
• Extend internal tools and demos to support new creative apps, features, and workflows.
• Stress-test new tools and techniques, and write clear, reproducible code that others can build on.
• Explore untested use cases and translate speculative concepts into proofs-of-concept.
• Develop bespoke software and pipelines to support creator-led projects (e.g. music generation, visual systems, interactive installations).
• Work closely with internal Engineering and Research teams.
• Stay attuned to emerging technologies (quantum, AI/ML, generative media, game engines) and identify their potential cultural applications.
• Build work that lands with a range of audiences — from gamers to the quantum industry to people encountering quantum computing for the first time.

• 3–5+ years’ experience in creative technology, or a related role bridging creative practice and computation, with the confidence to move between different use cases, tools and contexts.
• A strong audiovisual and conceptual sensibility, with the ability to speak to both creatives and technologists and translate between them.
• A research-led, self-directed way of working — comfortable in fast-moving, exploratory and sometimes ambiguous settings, with the ability to take initiative and operate autonomously.
• A bias toward shipping and iteration: you prototype quickly, get things in front of people, and build work that travels.
• Familiarity with generative AI and creative ML workflows (e.g. diffusion models, RNNs, transformers, audio-visual ML).
• A portfolio showcasing experimental, artistic, or interdisciplinary projects — demonstrating creativity, technical skill, and originality

• Exposure to quantum computing frameworks (Qiskit, Cirq, Penny Lane) — or a genuine curiosity to learn them.
• Experience with real-time or creative frameworks such as Touch Designer, Unreal, Unity, Blender, three.js, or generative AI/ML tooling.
• An established, active creative practice — exhibitions, performances, talks, teaching, writing, or projects that have had a public life.
• Experience with audio/DSP, shader programming, or physical computing (Max/MSP, Pure Data, Arduino, Raspberry Pi).
