- Develop a strong technical understanding of our R&D priorities, to enable successful collaborations, and proactively identify new opportunities.
- Creatively solve and mitigate technical challenges, while establishing early risk identification and mitigations.
- Serve as a link between research and engineering, moving new technologies from incubation to scalable solutions.
Requirements:
- Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience in Computer Science, Engineering, Physics, Applied Mathematics, or a related technical field.
- 10+ years of technical program management experience leading large-scale, cross-functional technology initiatives, including multiple sophisticated programs at once and execution alongside research, engineering, and technical leadership.
- Validated understanding of the quantum computing ecosystem and technologies, including hardware and software.
- Excellent communication and presentation skills, with the ability to translate sophisticated technical concepts for a range of audiences.
Nice to Have:
- Advanced degree (MS or PhD or equivalent) in quantum information science, physics, or a closely related field, or hands-on research or engineering experience inside a quantum program.
- Background in translating research output to developed technology.
- Familiarity with GPU-accelerated computing, HPC environments, or hybrid quantum-classical workflows and the tooling around them.
- Experience running joint technical programs with national laboratories, companies, universities, or research institutions.
