About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

As a Systems Integration Engineer on the Deployments team, you will be at the operational frontier of Rigetti's external quantum systems work — bringing processors to life at customer sites and ensuring they perform to specification in production.
You will be among the first people to deploy a Rigetti system in a new environment, owning the technical work from initial bring-up through sustained cloud operation.
Act as the primary technical point of contact for customers during on-site engagements; communicate results clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Monitor deployed systems and proactively identify and respond to regressions, drift, or outages.
Train team members and customer-side personnel on procedures, workflows, and best practices relevant to your track.

Requirements

What you’ll need

PhD in Physics, Applied Physics, Electrical Engineering, or a related field; or equivalent degree with relevant industry or postdoctoral experience (see track requirements below).
Hands-on experience with superconducting qubit devices.
Proficiency in Python in a scientific or engineering context.
Strong systematic debugging skills: able to isolate failures across the full measurement chain (wiring, electronics, device, software).
Comfort operating in customer-facing and field environments with limited on-site infrastructure support.
Excellent written and verbal communication; able to write clear experimental reports and debrief non-specialists.
Willingness and ability to travel internationally 10–25% of the time.
MS/BS with 3+ years of relevant experience (or PhD).
